Shut-down instructions:

NOTE: In cases where long runs of gas supply lineshave been installed ahead of the appliance, it may be necessary to bleed trapped air out of the supply lines before lighting the burner. New installations generally require bleeding of supply lines. Wait a minimum of five minutes after bleeding the supply lines before attempting to light the heater.

6.IMPORTANT: DO NOT attempt to adjust the main burner input using the main gas supply valve, for this may cause the thermocouple to shut down the burner.

To turn the heater OFF:

1.Close the LP-Gas supply cylinder valve.

2.Observe the burner until flame is extinguished.

3.Listen for closure of the safety valve.

4.IMPORTANT: DO NOT re-open the LP-Gas supply cylinder valve before the safety valve closes.
