Your heater has been designed for use with high-quality, water-free pure
paraffin oil such as Qlima Premium Quality Fuels or high quality, water-free
pure diesel oil (not home-oil). We recommend you to use paraffin. Only fuels
of this kind will ensure clean and proper burning.
Lower quality fuel may result in:
• Increased possibility of malfunctioning
• Incomplete combustion
• Reduced heater lifetime
• Smoke and/or fumes
• Deposits on the grid, mantle or other objects
• Increased repair costs
Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, efficient and comfortable
use of your heater.
Damage and/or malfunctioning of the heater due to the use of other than
high-quality water-free pure paraffin oil or high quality, water-free pure die-
sel oil (not home-oil) is not covered by the warranty.
Always refer to your local dealer for the right fuel for your heater.
FILLING FUEL
Fill the fuel tank in a suitable, well ventilated area. Please avoid spillage of
fuel and respect following precautions:
•
Make sure the heater is standing on a level surface
•
Make sure the heater is switched off and cooled down completely
•
Remove the fuel tank cap
•
Ensure that the same fuel is added to the remaining fuel in the tank, unless
the tank is empty.
•
Fill the tank just below the maximum level in order to avoid spillage; the
gauge indicates the fuel level
•
Replace the fuel tank cap
IGNITING AND OPERATING THE HEATER
STARTING THE HEATER
After refilling the fuel, put the plug into an earthed socket. Turn the ther-
mostat control knob to the desired setting (5 - 45 ºC.) and put the power
switch in the 'ON' position. The power indicator lamp will light up and the
heater will start.
The temperature display (DFA 2900 Premium and DFA 4100 Premium only)
will indicate:
•
'Lo' when the detected temperature is below 5 ºC
•
The actual temperature when it is between 5 and 45 ºC
•
'Hi' when the detected temperature is above 45 ºC
When the heater doesn't start, the set temperature may be lower than the
detected temperature.
STOPPING THE HEATER
Put the power switch in 'OFF' position.
