5.2. Operating from 12 Volt 

vehicle battery

Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the

appliance matches the voltage of the vehicle battery

(12V).
In  12V  operation,  the  appliance  runs  continuously

without temperature control.

The appliance is supplied with a matching pair of

12  Volt  MALE  +  FEMALE plugs  (see  9,2

connection to vehicle power source).
For  12V  operation,  make  sure,  if  the  engine  is  not

running, that the switch is turned off. Otherwise, the

appliance  will  discharge  the  vehicle  battery  when  in

operation.

5.3. Operating from LP bottled gas

Connection  to  the  gas  cylinder  is  described  in

sections 9.3. and 9.4. 
After  opening  the  valve  of  the  gas  cylinder  and

checking  for  gas  leaks  (Figure  4)  turn  thermostat  to

maximum  position,  press  down  the  gas  safety  valve

and at the same time, press the piezo-ignition button

(marked with a star) several times in quick succession.

If the flame does not ignite, repeat the process. (Air in

the appliance gas line prior to connection to the gas

cylinder must be purged. Only then can the gas be lit.) 
Ignition of the flame can be verified through the flame-

view  opening  (Figure  5).  After  you  have  the  flame

alight  keep  the  safety  gas  valve  pressed down  for  a

further 10 seconds.
