4. FUELS

For optimal performance of this heater, it is strongly suggested that 1-K kerosene be used. 1-K kerosene has
the operation of the heater. However, #1/#2 diesel/fuel oil, JET A or JP-8 fuels may also be used if 1-K
kerosene is not available. Be advised that these fuels do not burn as clean as 1-K kerosene, and care should
be taken to provide more fresh air ventilation to accommodate any added contaminants that may be added to
the heated space. #2 diesel/fuel oil heavier than 1-K kerosene in extreme cold temperatures
without nontoxic anti-icer additives will not ignite properly.
KEROSENE SHOULD ONLY BE STORED IN A BLUE CONTAINER THAT IS CLEARLY
MARKED "KEROSENE". NEVER STORE KEROSENE IN A RED CONTAINER.
Red containers are associated with gasoline.
NEVER
store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be stored in a well ventilated place outside the
living area.
NEVER
use any fuel other than 1-K kerosene (#1/#2 diesel/fuel oil, JET A or JP-8 fuels are acceptable substitutes)
NEVER
use fuel such as gasoline, benzene, alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel, paint thinners, or other oil
compounds in this heater. These are volatile fuels that can cause an explosion or uncontrolled
NEVER
store kerosene in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.
NEVER
use kerosene that has been stored from one season to the next. Kerosene deteriorates over time.
"OLD KEROSENE" WILL NOT BURN PROPERLY IN THIS HEATER.
