H
MAINTENANCE
Your heater needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you
remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may
cause stains that are hard to remove. Under normal conditions, only 4 components
are subject to wear:
1. THE BATTERIES
You may replace the batteries yourself. Check the spark discharge sound. If the
sound is cracked, the voltage of the battery is low. Please change the battery.
Check the ignition plug following the maintenance procedure 3 if the sound
does not change even after the replacement of the battery. Do not dispose of
old batteries along with the other domestic waste. Follow the locally applicable
regulations regarding the disposal of domestic chemical waste.
2. THE WICK
To extend the glass fibre wick life, you must occasionally let the heater burn until
the tank is completely emptied and the heater extinguishes by itself. Do this when
you notice that the flame is weakening. The burn-out will cause some smells, so it
is recommended that you take the heater outside of the living room.
3. ELECTRODES
When the electrodes gets dirty by carbon or tar, clean the electrodes. If the
electrodes digs into the wick, it may cause the ignition failure. Then fix the
position of the electrodes. Be sure not to spill the water on the electrodes.
4. THE FUEL FILTER
Check the fuel filter regularly as well.
Remove the removable tank º from the heater and take out the fuel filter (Fig.
P). Some drops of fuel may spill from the filter; keep a cloth at hand. Turn the
fuel filter upside down and clean it from all dirt deposits by tapping it on a hard
surface. (Never clean it with water!) Reposition the fuel filter in the heater.
!
Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your dealer for
repairs.
!
Let the heater cool down first, before you start any maintenance or service work.
I
STORAGE (END OF THE HEATING SEASON)
We recommend that you burn up all the fuel in the fuel tank at the end of the
heating season and store the heater properly. Follow the procedure on the next
page:
1 Ignite the heater outside the living room and let it burn until all fuel is used.
2 Let the heater cool down.
3 Clean the heater with a damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth.
4 Remove the batteries from the holder µ and store them in a dry place.
5 Clean the fuel filter (refer to Section H).
6 Store the heater in a dust-free place, if possible in its original packaging.
Unused fuel cannot be used for the next heating season. If there is still some
fuel left, do not throw it away, but dispose of it in accordance with the local
regulations for the disposal of domestic chemical waste. Always start the new
heating season with fresh fuel. When you start re-using the heater, follow the
instructions again (starting from Section A and as specified).
