13. SPECIAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Where is it safe to use the comfort heater?
Ȝ The oil heater must be set up only on level,
horizontal surfaces.
Ȝ Do not set up the oil heater in passageways such
as entrances or exits, and do not expose it to
drafts.
Ȝ Do not set up the oil heater underneath a
fireplace.
Ȝ Do not use the heater in rooms which are already
warmer than 30°C.
Ȝ Never place the heater in close proximity to
curtains or other flammable objects of any sort.
Ȝ Do not use the heater in campers, on boats, or in
cockpits.
Ȝ Never leave the oil heater unsupervised during
operation.
How to operate the comfort heater?
Ȝ Read the operating instructions carefully before
using the heater.
Ȝ After igniting the wick in accordance with the
operating instructions, inspect it to make sure that
it is burning properly. If the wick is too high or if
the burner is too far up, combustion may be
abnormal and even dangerous. An incorrectly
adjusted wick may cause the smoke, smells,
insufficient combustion and the accumulation of
carbon deposits on the wick, and it may even
shorten wick life.
Ȝ Use the heater only in well ventilated rooms.
Ȝ Never use the heater in rooms which contain
flammable vapors or gases.
Ȝ Never use the heater to dry clothes.
Ȝ Never transport the heater while it is still in
operation.
Ȝ Never use the heater to heat up or cook food.
Ȝ Never touch the top plate or the safety front grille
while the heater is still in operation as these
surfaces become burning hot.
Ȝ Never leave the heater unsupervised during
operation. Make sure that the heater is really off
before retiring for the night.
Ȝ If it is impossible to turn off the heater with the
automatic cut-out, take out the tank immediately.
If the flame keeps on burning in a normal way, the
heater can be kept going until the fuel has burned
away completely and the flame dies out. If the
flames in the burner appear abnormal, i.e. if they
are blazing out over the burner while it is
impossible to turn of the burner with the automatic
cut-out, the fire must be extinguished with an „A-
B-C“ powder fire extinguisher. After such an
incident, the heater must not be started up again
until it was inspected and repaired in a specialist
workshop.
Ȝ Use only fuel types authorized by your country’s
national standards.
Ȝ Never place the burner in water (risk of rusting).
Inspection and maintenance of the comfort
heater.
Ȝ Consult your specialist dealer if you encounter
any problems!
