Operation
Inspect the visible portion of the hose before each use of the appliance.

Before Turning Gas Supply ON
Your heater was designed and approved for OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DO
NOT use it inside a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
Make sure surrounding areas are free of combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapors or liquids.
Ensure that there is no obstruction to air ventilation.
Be sure all gas connections are tight and there are no leaks.
Be sure the access panel is clear of debris.
Be sure any component removed during assembly or servicing is
replaced and fastened prior to starting.
Before Lighting
Heater should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a
qualified service person at least annually.
If relighting a hot heater, always wait at least 5 minutes for gas to
dissipate.
Lighting
1. Turn Gas Control Knob to OFF position.
2. Push in Control Knob and rotate to “ON” position. This will activate
the built-in ignitor and light the burner. If necessary, keep depressing
and rotating Knob until burner lights.
3. Once burner is lit, hold Control Knob in for at least 30 seconds and
release.
4. If burner does not stay lit, turn to “OFF” position and wait 5 minutes
and repeat steps 2 and 3.
5. If ignitor does not light burner, use a lit match positioned against the
bottom of emitter screen at burner location, and repeat steps 2 & 3.
6. Once burner is lit, rotate Knob to desired heating level.
If you experience any ignition problem, turn off the heater and gas
supply, and consult “Troubleshooting” on page 14.
