7. How to Switch On the Gas Heater
Prior to using the gas heater for the first time or after the gas heater has been stored for a long time,
we recommend, with the pressure regulator closed, repeatedly pressing the buttons a few times.
The gas heater can be set to three heat positions: the maximum, the medium and the minimum position. The
ignition is generated by an electric spark.
Open the gas flow by turning the lever of the pressure regulator toward the marking.
Ignition of the Gas Heater

Fully press the button and turn in an anticlockwise direction.

Hold the button pressed for 20 seconds. Repeat this operation until the pilot light is lit. The pilot light is
located on the lower part of the protection grid (where the ignition sparks are generated). Keep the button
pressed for another 10 seconds after the pilot light is lit. Repeat the steps above if the pilot light dies out
when releasing the button.
