Before performing a leak test, be sure that no sparks can occur, and you are in a spacious outdoor area� Connect
the propane gas tank to the regulator and turn the valve on the unit to the 'OFF' position� Brush a soap and water
mixture on all connections� Turn the gas supply on; if bubbles appear on any connection there may be a leak� If
you smell gas or a leak is discovered, turn the gas valve off, disconnect the propane gas tank and do not use the
appliance until the leak is repaired�
Do not use the heating unit without inspecting the gas hose� If there are signs of wear or abrasion you must replace
the hose (if applicable)�
To Light
1� Make sure the control knob is in the 'OFF' position�
2� Slowly open the valve on the propane gas tank by turning
the knob counterclockwise�
3� A pulse igniter is built into the control knob, so pushing
and turning the control knob counterclockwise to the 'LOW'
position will ignite the fuel� Once lit, keep holding down the
control knob for 15 seconds�
4� If ignition does not immediately take place within seconds,
push and turn the control knob (J) clockwise to 'OFF' and
wait 5 minutes, and then repeat the lighting procedure as
above�
5� If igniter does not light burner, use a long match or long
butane lighter�
6� Adjust flame to desired intensity with the control knob�
7� If the burner flame goes out accidentally or it is blown out
by wind, turn off the heater and wait at least 5 minutes or
more to let the gas dissipate before lighting again to avoid
possible gas explosion� Repeat step 3�
When lit for the first time the heater may emit a slight odor and smoke� This is a normal and temporary condition�
The emitter screen will become a bright red due to the heat� The color is more visible at night� Flame patterns
should be a blue flame; these flames should not be yellow in color; indicating an obstruction of airflow through the
burners�
To Extinguish
1� Turn and push the control knob clockwise to the 'OFF' position�
2� Turn the cylinder valve on the gas tank clockwise to close�
CAUTION
Disconnect propane cylinder if you don't intend to use it for a long time.
