If any part of the heater is in need of replacing, use only original

Alva parts. Using any other spare parts is dangerous and will

void the warranty. When the heater is not going to be used for an

extended period of time, keep covered or in its box, to prevent

dust from settling on the panels. When removing the heater from

storage, use a vacuum cleaner to clean the panels before re-use.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there an odour when I use a gas heater?

All gas appliances give off an odour. This could be

harmful if inhaled for extended periods of time. This

"smell" is normal, and it does not mean that you have

a gas leak. The smell of raw gas (just before you ignite

the appliance) differs to the smell coming from the

heater when it is in use. The odour is added to allow

easy gas detection.

Why must there be ventilation when using a gas

heater?

Whenever fuel (Butane in this case) is burned,

ventilation is needed. Any fire needs oxygen to burn.

Think of a fireplace, you require a chimney or flue for

the smoke to exit the house. Even though a gas heater

does not generate smoke, it still generates carbon

monoxide and carbon dioxide, which can be dangerous

if not diluted by fresh air. Always ensure adequate

ventilation.

How long will the gas in my cartridge last?

This depends on how you use your heater. It is easy to

calculate your gas consumption. Take the capacity of

the gas cartridge in grams (i.e. 220g) and divide it by

the gas consumption of the heater, on your desired

setting (refer to the Specifications section in this

manual (page 12). The answer to the calculation is the

approximate number of time that your heater will burn

for (in hours).

I just took my heater from storage, but there seems

to be a blue flame rolling on the panels. Is my

heater faulty?

It is normal for dust to settle on the panel. When this

happens, the heater will not burn properly at first, giving

the appearance of a blue flame running on the panel.

This might happen when you first buy the unit after you

have stored it.There is nothing wrong with the heater.
