CHECK YOU FLAME
The flame pattern at the emitter screen should be visually checked whenever heater is operated. Normally the
burner flame is blue, but little yellow flame is acceptable. If flame extend beyond the emitter grid or there are
black spots that have accumulated on the emitter grid or reflector, immediately turn off the patio heater. The
heater should not be operated again until it has been serviced and repaired by a qualified gas technician.
CLEAN
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your heater make sure you perform the following maintenance
activities on a regular basis:
1. Keep exterior surfaces clean:
• Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.
• While washing your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly dry at all times. If
the gas control is exposed to water in any way: do not try to use it. It must be replaced.
2. Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air passageways clean. Signs of possible
blockage include:
• Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
• Heater does not reach the desired temperature.
• Heater glow is excessively uneven.
• Heater makes popping noises.
3. Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifices. This dangerous condition can damage heater and render
it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe cleaner. Compressed air may help clear
away smaller particles.
4. Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean dome and emitter screen with warm soapy water if any
carbon deposits develop.
DO NOT touch or move heater for at least 45 minutes after use. Allow all burner elements to cool before
