1 Turn the knurled wick adjustment knob
apply more pressure you may turn it slightly further; however, it will
automatically return to the start position. When you have set the wick to its
highest position, this action will automatically activate the safety device.
When you have ignited the heater and it shuts off again shortly after, the batteries
need to be replaced. It is best to use new alkaline batteries (4x D-size).
!
If the heater has been used only a few times and the wick adjustment knob is
not locked, first turn the wick adjustment knob (Fig. M) completely left, before
putting the wick in the highest position for ignition (Section C).
After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
!
chamber ¿ is level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle
´ (Fig. E). This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is not
level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.

BURNING OF THE HEATER
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 30 minutes before you can check
whether the heater is burning well. Too high a flame may cause smoke and soot,
whereas too low a flame causes smells (Fig. R).

!
If the flame remains low after the adjustment, the wick height must be
adjusted (refer to Section F).
Burning that is too low may be caused by:
¼ insufficient fuel
¼ poor fuel quality
¼ insufficient ventilation
¼ wastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick, refer to Section M)
When there is insufficient ventilation in the room, the heater shuts off
automatically. After improving the ventilation of the room (e.g. by opening a
door or window a little more), the heater can be ignited again.
This heater is equipped with a safety mechanism which switches off the heater
!
when the removable fuel tank is taken out of its compartment (Fig. G). To
re-ignite the heater, place the removable fuel tank back in the heater and follow
the instructions as described in Section C.
