Only the use of the

correct fuel will ensure

safe, efficient, and

comfortable use of your

Zibro.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ADVANCE

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION

This heater is equipped with an air quality control system . When there is
insufficient ventilation in the room or when the heater is being used in a room
which is too small, the heater will shut off automatically. For comfortable and safe
heating ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.
Note: To avoid unexpected shut off, we recommend to put a door or window ajar
when the heater is operating.

For each Zibro model the minimum size of space is specified in which you can use
the heater safely, without additional ventilation (refer to Section P). If a particular
room is smaller than the specified space, always leave a window or door slightly
ajar (±
rooms and/or at altitudes above 1,500 metres. Do not use your Zibro in cellars or
other underground areas.

THE RIGHT FUEL

Only use Class C1 paraffin fuel in accordance with BS2869: Part 2, or equivalent.
Your Zibro heater has been designed for use with high-quality water-free pure
paraffin oil, such as Zibro Extra or Zibro Kristal. Only fuels of this kind will ensure
clean and proper burning. Lower quality fuel may result in:

E increased possibility of malfunctioning
E incomplete burning
E reduced heater lifetime
E smoke and/or smells
E deposits on the grid or mantle

Using the right fuel is therefore essential for safe, ef
of your heater.

M MAINTENANCE

Switch off the heater and let it cool down, before you start any maintenance
work. Also disconnect the plug from the mains. Your Zibro needs hardly any
maintenance. It is, however, important that you clean the air filter 8 and the vent
filter 9 with a vacuum cleaner and the grid 2 with a damp cloth, both on a
weekly basis. Remove the air filter cap occasionally (Fig. M) and clean it with soapy
water. Prior to reinstallation, make sure that the air filter cap has fully dried.
Regularly inspect the fuel filter as well:

Remove the removable tank 7 from the heater and remove the fuel filter

(Fig. N). Some drops may leak from the filter; keep a cloth at hand.

N STORAGE (END OF THE HEATING SEASON)

432

1

At the end of the heating season, you must store the heater in a dust-free place, if
possible in its original packaging. Unused fuel cannot be used in the next heating
season. We therefore recommend that you burn up all fuel. If there is still some
fuel left, do not throw it away, but dispose of it in accordance with the local
regulations for the disposal of domestic chemical waste. Always start the new
heating season with fresh fuel. When you start re-using the heater follow the
instructions again (starting from section A and as specified).

O TRANSPORTATION

Q WARRANTY PROVISIONS

7654321

Your heater comes with a 48-month warranty starting on the date of purchase.
Within this period all defects in material or workmanship will be repaired without
any charge. The following provisions shall apply regarding this warranty:

We expressly dismiss all other claims for damages, including consequential
damages.
Any repairs or replacements of components within the term of warranty will
not result in an extension of the term of warranty.
The warranty shall no longer apply, when the heater has been modified,
non-original parts have been used, or when it is repaired by third parties.
The warranty shall not apply to parts that are subject to normal wear, such as
the burner mat and the manual fuel pump.
The warranty shall only apply, when you present the original, dated proof of
purchase, provided no changes have been made to it.
The warranty shall not apply to damages caused by actions not in compliance
with the Directions for Use, neglect, and the use of an incorrect type of fuel,
or fuel past its use-by date. The use of incorrect fuel can even be dangerous*.
Transportation costs and the risks involved during the transportation of the
heater or heater components shall always be for the account of the purchaser.

In order to avoid unnecessary costs, we recommend that you always read the
’Directions for Use’ carefully first. In case they offer no solution, please take the
heater to your dealer for repair.

* Highly inflammable substances may induce uncontrollable burning, causing flames to break out. Should this
happen, never try to move the heater, but always switch off the heater immediately. In case of emergency you
may use a fire extinguisher, but only a type B extinguisher: a carbon dioxide or powder extinguisher.

11 TIPS FOR SAFE USE

1 Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the

appliance.

2 Do not move the heater when it is burning or still hot. Do not refill nor

service the heater when it is burning or still hot.

3 Position the front of the heater at a distance of minimum 1.5 metres

from walls, curtains, and furniture.

burning in such rooms. Do not use the heater in the immediate
surrounding of a bath, a shower or a swimmingpool.

5 Switch off the heater, before you leave or go sleeping. Unplug the

heater as well, when you go away for a longer period of time
(e.g. holidays).

6 Store and move fuel only in suitable tanks and jerrycans.
7 Make sure that the fuel is not exposed to heat or extreme temperature

changes. Always store the fuel in a cool, dry and dark place (sunlight
will af

fect the quality).

8 Never use the heater in places where harmful gasses or fumes may be

present (e.g. exhaust gasses or paint fumes).

9 Beware that the grid of the heater becomes hot. If the appliance is

covered there is a risk of fire.

10 Always make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.
11 This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)

with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of expe
rience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
