hear a click inside the regulator assembly. To reset the excess-
flow check valve,close Propane / L.P. supply valve and open
again slowly.

Note: Higher regulator setting will allow heater to produce more
heat.

desired setting. If heater does not start, thermostat setting may
be too low. Turn thermostat knob to higher position to start
heater.
Note: If heater does not start, turn on/off switch to the OFF position.
Wait ten seconds for safety control to reset, then try again.
