been checked for leaks, it is ready for
operation.( Refer page 9, To test for gas
tightness.)

minimum clearances to combustible materials
are met. (See pages 5 and 6, for definition of
outdoor area)

surface with the wheels retracted and all the
guards are in place, with the bottle cover sitting
on the base. NOTE: The heater will not start if

(0) position.

a ticking noise from the spark ignition. If there
is no sound then check that the battery is
properly installed and has a charge.

the knob down for a further 15 seconds to
maintain ignition.
