WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION

For each model the minimum size of space is specified in which you can use the

heater safely, without additional ventilation (refer to Section K).If a particular

room is smaller than the specified space, always leave a window or door slightly

ajar (± 2.5 cm). We also recommend doing this in highly insulated or draught-free

rooms and/or at altitudes above 1,500 metres. Do not use your heater in cellars or

other underground areas.

SAFE TOP

The heater is supplied with a safe top. This application decreases the temperature

of the top plate. In this way, the risk of harmful accidents at accidentally touching

the top plate is considerably decreased. However, be aware that the top plate still

becomes hot.

Avoid any contact with the top plate and grille.

THE RIGHT FUEL

Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869 Part two, or equivalent.

Your heater has been designed for use with high-quality water-free pure paraffin

oil, such as Zibro Extra or Zibro Kristal. Only fuels of this kind will ensure clean and

proper burning. Lower quality fuel may result in:

Eexcessive tar deposits on the glass fibrewick

Eincomplete burning

Ereduced heater lifetime

Esmoke and/or smells

Edeposits on the grid or mantle

Using the right fuel is thereforeessential for safe, efficient, and comfortable use

of your heater.

Always refer to your local dealer for the right fuel for your heater.

Only the use of the

correct fuel will ensure

safe, efficient, and

comfortable use of your

heater.

MANUAL

Inaddition to the heater you also need to have:

Eamanual fuel pump

Eatransportation cap

Ethese directions for use

Ebatteries

Keep the box and the packaging materials (Fig. A) for storage and/or

transportation.

Remove the other packaging materials:

ERemove the packaging material from the grill G.Lift the grill from the slot

(Fig. B) and pull it forward.

EPull both ends of the packaging to the rear and at the same time slightly

downwards (see Fig. C).

ERemove the combustion chamber from the heater and remove the

packaging underneath (see Fig. D).

EPut the combustion chamber back into its place. The combustion chamber

is positioned correctly when it can be smoothly moved a little to the left

and to the right by its handle E(Fig. E). Close the grill: Slightly lift it to

reposition it in its slot.

EOpen the lid of the removable tank Hand remove the piece of cardboard.

Fill the removable tank as indicated in Section B.

Insert the batteries into their holder Lat the back of the heater (Fig. F).

Ensure that the positive and negative poles match the + and - marks indicated

on the battery housing.

The floor should be firm and completely level.

Reposition the heater, when it is

not level. Do not correct the situation by placing books or other goods under the

heater.

Your heater is now ready for use.

BFILLING FUEL

Do not fill the removable tank in the living room, but in a more suitable place

(there can always be some spillage). Follow the procedure below:

Make sure that the heater is switched off.

Open the lid Hand lift the removable tank Iout of the heater (Fig. G).

Note: Some drops may leak from the tank. Put down the removable tank

(cap pointing upwards) and screw off the fuel cap.

EEEEEE

☞

Take the manual fuel pump and insert the smooth, most rigid tube into the

jerrycan. Make sure that it is in a higher position than the removable tank

(Fig. H). Insert the ribbed hose into the opening of the removable tank.

Lock the valve on top of the pump (turn clockwise).

Squeeze the pump a few times, until fuel starts flowing into the removable

tank. As soon as this happens, there is no need to press any longer.

Check the removable tank fuel gauge Jwhile filling the tank (Fig. I). Stop

filling by loosening the valve on top of the pump (turn anti-clock-wise), once

the gauge indicates that the tank is full. Never overfill the tank, especially not

when the fuel is very cold (fuel expands when it heats up).

Let the remaining fuel in the pump flow back into the jerrycan and carefully

remove the pump. Carefully screw the fuel cap back on the tank. Clean

off any spilled fuel.

Check whether the fuel cap is straight and tightened properly. Reinstall the

removable tank in the heater (cap down). Close the lid.

CIGNITING THE HEATER

Anew heater may give off some smells for a short while, when it is used for the

first time. You should therefore provide extra ventilation or ignite the heater

outside the living room.

When you use the heater for the first time, first put the filled removable tank into

place, and then wait approximately 30 minutes before you ignite the heater. This

allows the glass fibre wick to soak up the fuel. Follow the same procedure when you

have completely burnt up all fuel from the tank, and after the glass fibre wick has

been replaced.

Before igniting the heater, always check the fuel indicator Fto see whether the

removable tank needs filling up.

Always ignite the heater with the ignition coil K.Never use matches or a cigarette

lighter.

Follow the procedure below:

Turnthe knurled wick adjustment knob 2clockwise to its stop (Fig. J). If you

apply morepressureyou may turnit slightly further; however,it will automatically

return to the startposition.

Push in the ignition button C(Fig. K), but do not apply too much force.

Release the ignition button as soon as a flame is visible in the combustion

chamber D.

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).

empty full

☞

After having ignited the heater, always check whether the combustion

chamber Dis level, by sliding it slightly to the left and the right by its handle E

(Fig. E). This should be a smooth movement. If the combustion chamber is not

level, this will cause smoke and soot to develop.

DBURNING OF THE HEATER

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. P). The

flame can be slightly adjusted with the knurled wick adjustment knob B(Fig. L).

Burning that is too low may be caused by:

Einsufficient fuel (fill the tank)

Epoor fuel quality (contact your dealer)

Einsufficient ventilation (put window or door ajar)

Ewastage of the wick (contact your dealer or replace the wick,

refer to section M)

ESWITCHING OFF THE HEATER

Let the heater burnat its lowest setting (Fig. L) for approximately one minute.

Then slowly turn the knurled wick adjustment knob Banti-clockwise to its stop.

The flame will extinguish after a little while.

In case of an emergency, switch off the heater by pushing in the OFF button A

(Fig. M).

FADJUSTING THE WICK HEIGHT

After a period of time the combustion may no longer be high enough (Section D). In

that case you can adjust the wick height to improve the flame. To do this, the heater

must have been switched off. Follow the procedure below:

Push the OFF button A(Fig. M).

Pull the knurled wick adjustment knob Boff the heater, so the wick height

lock Mwill be visible.

Take the plastic collar between your thumb and index finger and pull it out.

Turn the collar up one step, to either position 2 or 3 (Fig. Q). Carefully push

the collar back, so the pin engages in the recess.

Carefully reinstall the knurled wick adjustment knob. This can be done in one

way only - check the rear of the cap for the correct position.

If adjustment of the wick height does not have the required effect, let the

heater burnuntil all fuel has been used up (Section H).

☞

Ifthe flame height is still too low and the wick is set on position 3, then contact your

dealer,

or replace the wick, refer to section M.

If the flame gets too high after adjus-

ting (Fig Q), the wick height lock should be placed one position lower again.

Otherwise smoke or soot may be caused.

HMAINTENANCE

Your heater needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you

remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may

cause stains that are hard to remove. Under normal conditions, only three

components are subject to wear:

1. THE BATTERIES

You may replace the batteries yourself. Do not dispose of old batteries along with

the other domestic waste. Follow the locally applicable regulations regarding the

disposal of domestic chemical waste.

2. THE IGNITION COIL

The ignition coil will have a longer life, if you ignite the heater in the correct

manner.Replace the batteries in time and take care not to push in the ignition

button with too much force. If the filament is broken, the ignition coil must be

replaced.

3. THE WICK

Toextend the glass fibre wick life, you must occasionally let the heater burn until

the tank is completely emptied and the heater extinguishes by itself. Do this when

you notice that the flame is weakening. The burn-out will cause some smells, so it

is recommended that you take the heater outside of the living room.

THE FUEL FILTER

Check the fuel filter regularly as well.

Remove the removable tank Ifrom the heater and take out the fuel filter (Fig. N).

Some drops of fuel may spill from the filter; keep a cloth at hand. Turn the fuel

filter upside down and clean it from all dirt deposits by tapping it on a hard

surface. (Never clean it with water!) Reposition the fuel filter in the heater.

Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your dealer for

repairs.

Let the heater cool down first, beforeyou start any maintenance or service work.

ISTORAGE (END OF THE HEATING SEASON)

We recommend that you burn up all the fuel in the fuel tank at the end of the heating

season and store the heater properly. Follow the procedure on the next page:

Ignite the heater outside the living room and let it burnuntil all fuel is used.

☞☞

broken ignition coil

fuel filter

Let the heater cool down.

Clean the heater with a damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth.

Remove the batteries from the holder Land store them in a dry place.

Clean the fuel filter (refer to section H).

Store the heater in a dust-free place, if possible in its original packaging.

Unused fuel cannot be used for the next heating season. If there is still some

fuel left, do not throw it away, but dispose of it in accordance with the local

regulations for the disposal of domestic chemical waste. Always start the new

heating season with fresh fuel. When you start re-using the heater, follow the

instructions again (starting from Section A and as specified).

JTRANSPORTATION

Take the following measures to avoid fuel leakage during the transportation of

the heater:

Let the heater cool down.

Remove the removable tank Ifrom the heater and remove the fuel filter
