Q:  

How long will the gas in my cylinder last?

A:  

This depends on how you use your heater. It is easy to  

 

calculate your gas consumption. Take the capacity of  

 

the gas cylinder in grams (i.e. 9000g for a 9kg 

 

cylinder) and divide it by the gas consumption of the  

 

heater, on your desired setting (refer to the Technical  

 

Data section in this manual (page 13). The answer to  

 

the calculation is the approximate number of hours that  

 

your heater will burn for.
