For every kW it is necessary to have permanent ventilation of 25 cm³, equally
distributed between the floor and high level, with a minimum outlet of 250
cm³.
Never direct the hot air flow towards the cylinder.
Never use the heater without its cover.
Do not exceed 100 W/m³ of free room. The minimum volume of the room
must be larger than 100 m³.
Do not obstruct the inlet or outlet sections of the heater.
If the heater has to work for a long period at its maximum capacity, it's possi-
ble that ice will form on the cylinder. This is due to excessive vapour withdra-
wal. Not for this reason, or for any other, should the cylinder be heated. To
avoid this effect, or at least to reduce it, use a large cylinder or two cylinders
linked together (Fig 1).
Do not use the heater in cellars, basements or in any room below the ground
level.
After use, turn the gas cylinder tap off.
The gas bottle must always be replaced following safety rules away from any
possible source of ignition.
The heater must be placed where there is no risk of fire, the hot air outlet
must be at least 3m from any flammable wall or ceiling and must never be
directed towards the gas bottle.
If in any doubt contact your supplier.
Connect the heater to a suitable electric socket /230V~50Hz
Make sure that the machine is properly earthed.
Connect the gas supply hose to the pressure regulator and connect the regu-
lator to a suitable LPG cylinder.
Open the tap of the cylinder and check the supply hose and fittings for gas
leak. For this operation it is recommended to use an approved leak detector.
Check the heater for possible shipping damage.
Connect the hose and regulator assembly to the LPG cylinder.
Open the cylinder's gas valve and check all gas connections with a soap and
water solution.
Connect power cord to well-grounded 220V~, 50Hz source of power.
