Regularly inspect the ODS. If there is any dust or lint, remove it without damaging
the burner or tubing.
Check the condition of the flexible rubber hose frequently. Also check the
condition of the gasket seal on the pressure regulator every time the gas
container is changed.
Take care not to hit or damage the fragile surface of the burner, the fittings and
gas hoses, the regulator and all other components of the gas circuit.
It is recommended that the gas heater be inspected once a year by a professional.
Please follow the storage instructions when the gas heater is not to be used for
an extensive period.
Disconnect the gas container from the gas heater.
Store the gas container in a well-ventilated room. Position it far away from
inflammable, explosive or hot materials and preferably not in the home. In
addition it should never be stored in the basement or attic.
The gas heater should be stored in a dry place and should be protected against
dust (preferably in the original packaging).
If it is decided that the gas heater is not to be used any more, it is recommended
that it be disconnected from the gas container. Also cut the rubber hose. If
children play with the heater, make sure that dangerous parts are removed.
Never dispose of non-biodegradable products in the environment, but dispose of
them in accordance with current national legislation. At the end of its lifetime,
the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a
special local authority differentiated waste collection center or to a dealer
providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative
consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate
disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered in order to
make significant savings in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to
dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with an image
of a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
Iron, i.e. the heater cabinet and the burner body.
Aluminum, gas tubes.
Brass, i.e. the tap and atmosphere analyzer.
Plastic, i.e. the wheels and the piezoelectric igniter.
Copper covered with rubber, i.e. piezoelectric igniter and the thermocouple.
Ceramics, burner plate.
