When the space heater is operating, ensure
that the interior and exterior heater exhaust
openings are not obstructed, as this could
damage the heater and cause damage to
yourtrailer. Note that the exterior exhaust
opening may be very hot.
Read the space heater manufacturer’s
instruction manual included in your
information kit for information on its
maintenance and operation.
WARNING
070
To use the heater, youmust ensure that the propane gas is turned on. Then just adjust the
thermostat to the desired temperature (some thermostat models may have an On/Off
button instead of a temperature adjustment). You should hear the heater’s fan start up,
followed by the electronic ignition. Once the trailer has reached the desired temperature,
the heater turns off. This cycle is repeated every time the temperature drops below the
desired setting.
Before going camping for the first time, let the space heater operate for
two hours while you are at home to burn off the protective coating used
on the new metal, which causes smoke and an unpleasant odour. Open
the windows and roof vents to disperse the odours.
HINTS AND TIPS
Some people may find that the fan and heater starting disturb their
sleep. Lower the temperature a few degrees and use additional
blankets to stay warm.
