ADJUSTING THE FLAME
1. After lighting, wait for the heat chamber to reach operating temperature. This will take ten (10) minutes,
after which the flame will be visible through the glass cylinder.
2. CHECK THE FLAME LENGTH
After (5) minutes, the entire heat chamber should be glowing red.
lf necessary, raise or lower the wick by turning the wick adjuster knob to produce the proper flame condition.
NOTE: Do not operate your heater with wick set TOO LOW or TOO HIGH. Doing so will decrease
combustion efficiency and increase production of unwanted emissions. When operating heater, be
sure wick is high enough to keep the primary heat chamber heated to a uniform red glow from top
to bottom.
NOTE: AIways observe the heater closely for the first 15-20 minutes after it is lighted to be sure it is
properly adjusted.
EXTINGUISHING THE FLAME
1. Turn the wick adjuster knob counterclockwise until it stops. Within a few
moments, the flame will be completely extinguished and the heater will be off.
2. Make sure the flame is out completely.
3. Do not try to relight the heater for at least three (3) minutes after turning it off,
as this may cause smoke and odor.
MANUAL SHUTOFF
When quick shutoff is necessary, push the manual shutoff down.
NOTE: For routine turn-off, DO NOT use the "Manual Shutoff" or activate the
”Automatic Extinguisher” by jarring the heater. These methods may
cause unwanted odor, soot and smoke. Only the wick adjuster knob
should be used for normal shutoff.
