Prior to assembling your appliance, the following must
be reviewed. Compliance with the following should result
in satisfactory heater operation. This instruction manual
should be retained for future reference. The installation
must conform with local codes or authority having
jurisdiction.
1. The patio heater is intended for heating residential
and non-residential outdoor spaces. The installation
must conform with local codes and with the Australian
Standard AS/NZS 5601.
2. Adequate clearance around air openings into the
combustion chamber, clearances from combustible
materials, provisions for accessibility and for
combustion and ventilating air supply must be
maintained at all times when the appliance is
operating.
maintained at all times. The minimum clearances are
as follows:
Minimum Clearance from Combustibles:
Side 500 mm Rear 500 mm
Ceiling 1000 mm
Combustible materials are considered to be wood,
compressed paper, plant fibres, plastic, plexiglas or other
materials capable of being ignited and burned.
Such materials shall be considered combustible even
though flame proofed, fire-retardant treated or plastered.
Additional clearance may be required for glass, painted
surfaces and other materials which may be damaged by
radiant or convection heat.
4. Heaters must be placed on a level and adequate
footing and be readily accessible.
5. The gas manifold supply pressure must be regulated at
2.75 kPa utilising an AGA approved regulator (supplied
with heater).
6. The appliance must be inspected before each use, and
at least annually by a qualified service person.
a. The appliance area must be kept clear and free of
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapours and liquids.
b. Gas orifices and burner must be kept clear of dirt
and cobwebs. Flow of combustion and ventilation air
through the perforated portions of the heater must not
be obstructed. Cleaning with a soft brush before use
and at least every six months is recommended.
c. All gas connections should be checked for
leaks utilising a soap solution. Never use a flame for
this purpose.
d. The flame pattern should be visually checked
whenever heater is operated. If flames extend beyond
surface of the guard the appliance should be turned
off and should not be operated again until the unit is
serviced and or repaired.
e. Any cleaning agent used on the heater should be of a
non-combustible and non-corrosive nature.
f. The stainless steel emitter normally does not require
cleaning and should NEVER be painted.

prior to operating the heater. The replacement hose
assembly may be obtained from the manufacturer.
8. DO NOT use any pressure regulator or hose assembly
other than those supplied with the appliance.

When the cylinder is not in use, be sure to cover it
with a dust cap. A leak test should be performed with
soapy water whenever connecting a new cylinder.
NEVER use a match to test for leaks.
12. The propane cylinder must be turned off whenever the
heater is not in use. When the heater is to be stored
indoors, the propane cylinder and the heater must be
disconnected and the cylinder stored in accordance
with the Standard for Storage and Handling of
Liquefied Gases.
13. The appliance has been designed with several safety
features which include a tip over switch.
Any modification to the heater not described in the

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: White smoke may appear around the radiant
head during the first minutes of the initial firing.
1. Ensure that the control knob is off. Slowly open the
gas cylinder valve.
2. Push in control knob and turn anti-clockwise to
‘PILOT’. The rotary piezo will make a clicking sound.
3. Check for flame at the pilot. If pilot does not light
immediately turn control knob to ‘OFF’ position and
try again from the start. Allow 30 seconds between
ignition attempts for gas to dissipate. Several attempts
may be necessary.
Failure to follow this lighting procedure may result
in flame roll out beyond the emitter grid.
4. With the pilot alight keep control knob depressed for
10 seconds.
5. For minimum heat turn the control knob to ‘LOW’.
6. For maximum heat turn the control knob to ‘HIGH’.
7. To turn heater off, turn the control knob to ‘OFF’.

SAFE APPLIANCE LOCATIONS
This appliance shall only be used in an above ground open-air situation with natural ventilation, without stagnant areas, where gas leakage and products of
combustion are rapidly dispersed by wind and natural convection.
Any enclosure in which the appliance is used shall comply with the following:
An enclosure with walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover (see Example 1).
Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and no more than two walls (see Example 2 & 3).
Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and more than two walls, the following will apply:
At least 25% of the total wall area is completely open, and
at least 30% of the remaining wall area is open and unrestricted.
In the case of balconies, at least 20% of the total wall area shall be and remain open and unrestricted (see Example 4 & 5).
The following figures are diagrammatic representations of outdoor areas. Rectangular areas have been used in these figures – the same principles apply to any other
