Toyotomi Omni 230 - Manual (Page 2)

Congratulations; you are ready to begin enjoying the benefits of one of the most popular kerosene (paraffin)
heaters ever made. TOYOTOMI, the leader in kerosene (paraffin) heater techonlogy, has tested and refined the
Omni 230 to assure you of long-term safety and satisfaction. Please study the following instructions, use and care
for your heater carefully, and it will serve you well for many years.
SAFETY TIPS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR HEATER, PLEASE review these safety tips:
RISK OF EXPLOSION
1. NEVER use any fuel other than clean kerosene (paraffin).
NEVER use gasoline (petrol). Use of gasoline (petrol) can lead to uncontrollable flames resulting
in a destructive fire. Even kerosene (paraffin) contaminated with small amounts of gasoline
(petrol), or similarly volatile materials, can be hazardous. NEVER use a can for kerosene
(paraffin) that has previously been used for gasoline (petrol), paint thinner, or solvents.
2. NEVER refill heater fuel tank when heater is operating or still hot. To do so may cause a
“flash back“ of flame to the fuel container, resulting in injury to yourself and your property.
3. NEVER use heater in areas where flammable vapors or gases may be present.
Especially avoid use of heater where gasoline (petrol), naphtha, acetone or other volatile
solvents are in the air, or whose containers are open. Such vapors could be ignited by
the heater, resulting in fire and/or explosion.
4. NEVER fill heater fuel tank in living space. Fill heater tank outdoors. NEVER overfill your
heater. Always replace heater tank cap securely after refueling. Spillage of kerosene
(paraffin) produces strong odor which is hard to remove. Spillage on carpet can be
ignited if match or some other ignition source contacts it.
5. NEVER store or transport kerosene (paraffin) in other than a metal or plastic container that is
(1) acceptable for kerosene (paraffin), (2) non-red in color, and (3) clearly marked,
“KEROSENE (PARAFFIN)”. NEVER store kerosene (paraffin) in the living space. Picking up a
gasoline (petrol) can by mistake when fueling is a major cause of heater fires.
RlSK OF BURNS OR FIRE
1. Observe the heater carefully for 15-20 minutes after start-up. Problems of improper
adjustment of wick height or improperly seated heat chamber should become evident
during this warm up period.
NOTE: Carefully follow the instructions for lighting and adjusting the flame.
2. Due to high surface temperatures, keep away from children, furniture and clothing.
