Starting
 
Make sure to charge a person with the operation of the 
unit and with the supervision of the reservoirs and of the 
bottle stock who has been instructed sufficiently regar-
ding the handlings concerned. 
Make sure to draw the operators‘ attention to possible 
dangers during the handling of liquid gas. 
Connect pressure controller to the 
gas bottle(s). 
 
Attention – left-handed thread! 
Open bottle valve(s).
 
When gas is taken out of several 
gas bottles simultaneously, all the 
valves have to be opened. 
Press release button of the hose 
security device (protection against 
breakage) after having opened the 
valve(s). 
This has also to be done after each 
replacement of bottles. 
After the installation and connec-
tion of the units all the gas bearing 
connections have to be checked 
with soap solution, leakage detec-
ting spray etc. to make sure that 
they are tight. 
 
Do not use open flames! 
1) Unscrew gas hose
 
 Turn union nut clockwise 
 
2) Fasten gas hose
 
 Turn union nut anti-clockwise 
 
This procedure also refers to all 
further gas components, such as 
pressure controller, hose security 
device (protection against break-
age), etc. 
Important Installation Hint
 
When installing or removing the gas hose make sure to 
exert a counterpressure on the gas connection 
nipple of the unit using an open-end spanner SW 19 
and observing the left-handed thread. 
A constant unit connection pressure of 1.5 bar 
(1500 mbar) must be ensured, also during con-
tinuous operation.

Heating Operation
When connecting the unit to the mains 
socket make sure to observe the right 
polarity. 
If the unit is switched off due to a fault 
during the starting phase, the mains 
plug has to be turned by 180°. 
The unit runs in continuous operation.
 
Plug the supplied bridge plug (1) into 
the thermostat socket (2). 
1) Heating Without Room Thermostat
The unit operates fully automatically 
and dependent from the temperature. 
 
Remove bridge plug (1) and plug ther-
mostat plug (3) of the room thermo-
stat (accessories) into the thermostat 
socket (2). 
Preselect desired room temperature 
on the room thermostat. 
 
The selected temperature must be 
higher than the actual room tempera-
ture. 
2) Heating With Room Thermostat
Plug mains plug into a properly installed mains socket. 
(230V/1 – 50Hz with fault current breaker!) 
Switch operating switch into “I” 
position (= heating operation). 
The ingoing air fan starts and the automatic burner 
carries out the programme flow. 
 
After approx. 15 seconds formation of the flames starts.
