LP OPERATION
Before turning the gas supply “ON”
Make sure regulator hose is connected to the heater intake pipe and regulator is connected to the LP tank with
both connections tight and leakproof.
Visually inspect the hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts or wear. If the hose leaks, it must be
replaced prior to use. The replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer. Make sure the
surrounding areas are free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors or liquids.
Before lighting
For your safety, if relighting a hot heater, always wait 5 minutes. The heater should be inspected (emitter screen,
gas hookup, pilot assembly) before each use, and at least annually by a qualified service person.
To light:
1. Open door. Ensure the control knob is in the “OFF” position.
2. Turn supply tank valve in a counter-clockwise direction. Open valve fully. Check for leaks by applying soapy water
to the tank and hose connections.
3. The pilot is located behind the match hole cover. Rotate the disc upward from the hole for match lighting or
viewing.
4. Turn control knob counter-clockwise to the pilot position.
5. For regular relight, depress and hold in the control knob for 5 seconds to begin pilot gas flow. On new installa-
tions or cylinder changes to purge air from the lines, hold in the control knob for (3) minutes.
6. While depressing knob, depress the electronic igniter button, which will produce a spark that will light the pilot.
7. Once the pilot is lit, continue to hold in the control knob for 30 seconds or until the pilot remains lit after knob is
released.
8. The burner may now be turned to the full “HI” position. Reduce to the desired heat range.
9. Close
door.
Relighting:
1. Turn control knob to off position.
2. Wait (5) minutes before attempting to relight a hot heater pilot.
3. Repeat steps beginning with step (4) above.
Shut down instructions:
1. Turn control knob clockwise to the “OFF” position. The burner will make a slight popping sound when extin-
guished. This is a normal condition.
2. Turn LP-tank gas valve clockwise to “OFF” position when heater is not in use.
