Changing of gas bottle must not be carried out in the presence of a naked flame. Use the gas bottle always in upright position. If a screw on regulator is used ensure that the rgulator washer is present and in good condition - replace if any doubt. To place the bottle in position, remove the rear panel which faces the inside during transport, by unfastening the screws; than put the bottle in position and replace the panel. Do not turn the bottle upside down to use completely its content. 1. Connecting cylinder and turning the gas on a Make sure that the black plastic cap is screwed onto outlet of full cylinder. Ensure valve operates freely by turning anticlockwise to open and clockwise to close. Firmly close valve by turning handwheel clockwise. Remove black plastic cap from valve outlet and store in a safe place for future use. b Make sure black neoprene washer is in place on the regulator iniet. Regularly examine, and if unduly compressed or damaged, replace. Do not replace with red branch cap washer. c Support regulator, screw union nut onto cylinder valve by turning nut anti-clockwise (left-hand thread). Tighten just over hand tight using Calor Spanner. After fitting the regulator it may have assumed a position out of the horizontal. This is not important. Do not attempt to twist regulator. d Place cylinder in cabinet so that the cylinder valve is facing into the compartment. Open cylinder valve by turning handwheel anticlockwise. Make sure that all connections are gas tight, by brushing with soapy water or liquid detergent (a gas leak will form bubbles). Now refer to the lighting instructions on the heater. 2. Turning off and disconnecting the cylinder a Close cylinder valve by turning handwheel clockwise. Check that the heating elements and pilot are out. b Open back the appliance, remove cylinder and place close to heater (do not strain hose). Support regulator, use a Calor Spanner to disconnect regulator/ cylinder valve union by turning nut clockwise (lefthand thread). Care must be taken to ensure that the outlet connection on the regulator is not damaged or strained. Screw black plastic cap onto valve outlet. Place empty cylinder in a safe place. Where the screw on regulator is used in conjuction with a switch-on adaptor refer to instructions supplied with adaptor. 3 X-Press 1-03-2002 11:54 Pagina 4 MODEL NO. 182H SWITCH ON REGULATOR (Suitable for Calor Switch-on 21 mm Gas Bottle) 1.

Input Kw 4,2 g/h 305 Low Input Kw 1,50 g/h 109 Gas pressure Gas combustion air-quantity 8,4 m3/h See rating label 28÷30 mbar This appliance is designed to operate with Butane, propane or mix. LPG at nominal pressure: 28÷30 mbar Cylinder valve If heater does not completely extinguish, including pilot, when gas is turned off, do not remove regulator. Return valve to open position and leave heater alight, which is perfectly safe, until attended to by the gas supplier. Regulators, hoses and clips Check that tubing is completely over the nozzles at each end of the tubing and that it is held firmly in place by hose clips. Examine flexible tubing regularly and get your dealer to fit new tubing 400 mm long complying to local standard, if perished, worn or damaged. In any case replace the tube every 5 years. L.P.G. attacks natural rubber - use only tubing to B.S. 3212 Type 2 supplied by your dealer. When connecting the regulator to the container avoid undue twisting of the flexible hose. A regulator to B.S. 3016 set at 28 mbar (11,2 in w.g.) for butane must be connected to the appliance with the above tubing, using suitable hose clips. Ventilation Use only in a well ventilated room. Adequate ventilation must be provided in rooms in which the heater is used. This ensures removal of the products of Room Size Room Aperture combustion and allows the entry of replacement air. Adequate ventilation should considerably reduce the possibility of condensation occurring. 105 cm2 42 m3 The following table shows the smallest size of room suitable for the heater and the ventilation which must be provided. The heater may be used for short periods in smaller rooms. Maintenance Ensure that the heater is kept free of dust. When not in use the heater should be covered and stored in a dust-free place. Stains on the exterior should be removed with a soapy solution when the heater is cold. Dry with a polishing cloth do not use abrasive cleaners which will damage the paint finishes. Refer any major maintenance to your Local Authorised Dealer Major servicing should be carried out every 2 - 3 years. If in doubt refer to your authorised dealer.

The heat input and spark for ignition are controlled by the knob situated on the top right hand side. Lighting the heater: 1 Turn on the gas cylinder by either: a Turning the cylinder valve anti-clockwise where a screwed cylinder connection is used. or b Turn the black switch clockwise so that it points towards the flame symbol where a switch-on system is used (Model No. 182H). ON or c Turn the switch anti-clockwise to the ON (60' clock) position (Model No. 541101). 2 Fully depress the grey button ( ) for 10 seconds and push 2 or 3 times the red button ( ) (if pilot flame does not ignite, repeat the above mentioned operations). Continue to fully depress the grey button for a further 20 seconds to allow the thermocouple probe to heat up, then release. Turn the thermostat knob anticlockwise on position 6 and allow all three burners to heat up. When the room has reached the desired temperature, slowly rotate the thermostat knob clockwise until the side burners turn off. In this way the appliance will maintain the desired room temperature automatically changing from maximum input () to low input () and viceversa. 3 Turning off the heater: The heater will only be totally "OFF" when the supply of gas from the cylinder has been turned "OFF" after use the appliance must be turned "OFF" at the valve. a Turning the cylinder valve clockwise where a screwed connection is used. or b Turning the black switch anti-clockwise so that it points in the horizontal position if a switch-on system is used (Model No. 182H). OFF or c Turn the switch clockwise to the OFF position (Model No. 541101). DO NOT ATTEMPT to relight until FIVE minutes have elapsed. Warning for switch-on system: when the heat is alight, never turn the switch on the cylinder to the disconnect position. Wait until heater and pilot go out, then and only then, should the switch be turned to the disconnect position if the cylinder requires changing. FOR MODEL No. 182H If the black switch of your regulator is fitted with a centre button this must be depressed before turning to the disconnect position. FOR MODEL No. 541101 With the regulator switch in the OFF position, lift the disconnect lever and lift the regulator from the cylinder valve. It is dangerous to switch to the disconnect position when the heater is alight. 7 DISCONNECT 573627/10.95
