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. L) completely left, before putting the
wick in the highest position for ignition (Section C).
After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion
E
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.
D
BURNING OF THE HEATER
L
After you have ignited the heater, it will take 10 to 15 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. The page opposite the folding page shows
the minimum and maximum permissible burning heights of the flame (Fig. O). The
flame can be slightly adjusted with the knurled wick adjustment knob · (Fig. L).
Burning that is too low may be caused by:
insufficient fuel
poor fuel quality
insufficient ventilation
wastage of the wick
When there is insufficient ventilation in the room, the heater shuts off automati-
cally. After improving the ventilation of the room (e.g. by opening a door or win-
dow a little more), the heater can be ignited again.
M
This heater is equipped with a safety mechanism which switches off the heater when
the removable fuel tank is taken out of its compartment. To re-ignite the heater, place
the removable fuel tank back in the heater and follow the instructions as described in
chapter C.
E
SWITCHING OFF THE HEATER
