CLEANING AND CARE
Warning: Make sure the heaer is in off position and is cool!
Warning: Do not clean heater with cleaners that are combustible or corrosive.
• Wipe off powder coated surfaces with soft, moist rag and soap water.
• Remove debris, spider and insect nests from ventilation opening of the cylin-
der enclosure, control compartment, burner and circulation air passageways
of the heater with heavy duty pipe cleaner or compressed air to keep appli-
ance clean and safe for use.
• Never clear ports or other openings with toothpic.ks or other article that will
break and block the ports.
• If carbon deposits develop, remove the reflector and flame screen and clean
them with soap water.
• Do not paint the flame screen, control panel or reflector.
• Cover the burner unit with the optional supplied protective cover when the
heater is not in use. Wait until the heater is cool before covering.
• In a salt-air environment, such as near an ocean, corrosion occurs more
quickly than normal. Check frequently for corroded areas and repair them
promptly.
