Recommendations - Planar 9D-12 Operation Manual

ATTENTION!
1. When performing initial ignition following installation, the fuel supply line
should be filled with fuel using a fuel pumping device until the fuel level reaches the
inlet plug of the heater. If there is no pumping device, restart the heater as many times
as necessary to fill the fuel supply line.
2. Remember that each time the heater fails to start at the first attempt, the
heater will be restarted automatically by the control unit.

10 Recommendations

10.1 To ensure consistent performance, the heater should be switched on for up to 5-10
minutes each month throughout the year (warm seasons included). This will prevent
the moving parts of the fuel supply pump from sticking. Failure to comply with this
advice may cause malfunctions in heater operation.
10.2 Reliable operation of heater depends on the type of fuel used. Type of fuel should be
in accordance with GOST 305-82, depending on the ambient temperature (see Table
10.1). May be used and the mixture of fuel according to Figure 10.
