Use in closed rooms is dangerous and is PROHIBITED. Only
use the heater in well-ventilated spaces. Do not use this heater
in a space smaller than 100 M3. A well-ventilated area for this
HKG10 heater has at least 300 cm2 ventilation opening (or 10
cm x 30 cm) and the air in the space must circulate regularly.
Incomplete burning caused by lack of oxygen can cause
carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is fatal. The first
signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble flu-like
symptoms: headache, dizziness, burning eyes and nose, dry
mouth and throat and nausea. If you experience these
symptoms, your heater may not work properly or there is not
enough ventilation. Immediately get fresh air! Have the heater
checked and/or ensure that there is adequate ventilation. One
person may be more susceptible to carbon monoxide poisoning
than another person. Particularly pregnant women, people with
heart or lung problems or anaemia, the elderly and those under
the influence of alcohol have an increased risk. Never use the
heater in living, working or sleeping areas.
Only use propane or butane gas and only use the gas hose
and gas regulator supplied by the manufacturer. Check
whether the output pressure of the gas regulator corresponds
with the specifications on the type plate of the heater.
Always tightly close the tap of the gas bottle after use.
Always change the gas bottle in the fresh air or in open areas
with adequate ventilation. Always change the gas bottle in a
flame-free environment.
Check the entire gas transport system and all connections for
gas leaks (see instructions) before and after changing the gas
bottle. If you find a gas leak, immediately close the tap of the
gas bottle! Then open doors and windows to allow the gas to
escape. In the meantime, don’t use any fire or equipment that
could cause sparks. Fix the leak, and check again for gas
leakage before you use the heater again.
Device category A3.
Do not use the heater in the vicinity of flammable or explosive
materials such as paint, etc., highly flammable liquids such as
thinner, gas, turpentine, alcohol or volatile and gaseous
flammable substances. That can cause fire or explosion.
Do not use the heater in places with easily flammable materials
(paper, wood chips, granules, glass fibre waste and the like).
