Ho do I ignite the heater manually?

Take the chimney off. Raise the wick until it clicks in place. Light the wick in two or three places. Put the chimney back in place. Do it asquickly as possible. There will be a little smoke and odor.

First use NEW batteries. I thought my so-called NEW batteries were fresh and up to charge. They were not! Get a battery tester. Once I had batteries that had a full charge It started without having to do it manually. I do not manually do it any different than the other six answers in any major aspect. I had to start it manually until I realized that I had new batteries that did not have a full charge. Now it works fine without having to resort to manual operation.

Raise the wick to the its highest point, then raise the column and light the wick with a long match.

Put the lever down to move the wick up. Remove glass chimney over wick. Light wick with a match or preferably a wand lighter. Once lit put glass chimney back on quickly.

I think that the preceding respondents have all answered the question well. I second the answer on the batteries too. Sometimes you have to hold the ignition switch down a little long for the spark to catch on. If you've used the burner a lot and it's not igniting, you may need to do a carbon removal/dry burn procedure on the wick . See Manual, page 10. I did this on our heater, and it made a world of difference. J. Suprys

I open the front gate, lift the chimney unit, turn the on/off knob to high, the wick should rise.Light the wick with match. Replace the chimney. Close the front gate. I hope this answers your question.

Press and hold the little blue button w/ the snowflake on it. That should turn on the heat. Good luck!!

No problem lighting heater. Hold button down for about 10 seconds, release and depress button again. Residual gas from first press should help firing it right up.

Press and hold the up arrow, then it starts blinking. That's when you push the up arrow until 104. The heater will engage until it is that temp.

Press teh button down and hold it down. Wait for a few seconds then turn the knob (still holding it down) Click it a couple of times. I have three heaters. Two of them light easily. The thrid was is a problem. I have two of the 20000 BTU heaters and they are easy to light. I'llnever get a 10,000 BTU heater again Stick with the 20,000.

You must use a lighter. This unit does the job of heating but it is cheaply made. We have had ours for three years. just be careful with it

The one I have does not have an ignitor. There is a pilot light between the cannister and the grill that you light.

Pretty much like all lighters of this kind. Once it's filled with "lighter fluid"... (butane)... simply pull the red "trigger" and the sparker should ignite the butane!

As others indicate, the heater will run as long as there's fuel available. The Ignition is a Piezo / hammer type spark generator.and does not use the battery at all The battery operates ONLY the fan. In my opinion - you won't need the fan. It works very well without it.

Its really self explanatory. . . Plug it in. Middle button is power button. Starting from the upper left corner going clockwise, you've got the "rotate" button (you can stop the fan rotation when its pointing in any direction), then you have the "+/-" button that sets the auto set point (it has a pretty broad spectrum, it'll turn off once it reaches the threshold you choose, then once the room gets like, 6 degrees colder, it'll turn back on), then its the "High/Low" button (for how much more you want it to blow; if you want the "auto" do not press this button, it'll turn that option off), Then you have the "timer" option, (you can set the fan to stay on for intervals, starting at an hour, good if you're going to bed). If the "auto" button is on you'll have an A on the digital interface. There are red and orange flames on the interface depending on if its high or low. The red dot in the corner stays on as long as it's plugged in. If you are NOT using your heater tower for a long period of time, I suggest unplugging it. It did ungodly things to my electric bill (ie $70 to $140 after my first month of using it; totally worth it to me because I moved to the East Coast from AZ and just can't handle the cold).

you would be able to manually light the burners with a match/lighter, but the oven would not work, nor would the electric ignitor

my smart ass answer is--if you need instruction on how to use this lighter you shouldn't have one.a literal answer is, safety first--do not aim at anything you do not want burned, like your face. to operate, press down on the black lever. if you push all over the device, the black lever is the only thing that will move. pressing down on the lever will release butane and generate a spark to ignite said butane. opposite the flame end you will find the connector for refilling with butane. the dome also turns to adjust the size of the flame. simple. no instructions necessary. darwin rule applies. my smart ass answer is--if you need instruction on how to use this lighter you shouldn't have one.a literal answer is, safety first--do not aim at anything you do not want burned, like your face. to operate, press down on the black lever. if you push all over the device, the black lever is the only thing that will move. pressing down on the lever will release butane and generate a spark to ignite said butane. opposite the flame end you will find the connector for refilling with butane. the dome also turns to adjust the size of the flame. simple. no instructions necessary. darwin... » Read More my smart ass answer is--if you need instruction on how to use this lighter you shouldn't have one.a literal answer is, safety first--do not aim at anything you do not want burned, like your face. to operate, press down on the black lever. if you push all over the device, the black lever is the only thing that will move. pressing down on the lever will release butane and generate a spark to ignite said butane. opposite the flame end you will find the connector for refilling with butane. the dome also turns to adjust the size of the flame. simple. no instructions necessary. darwin rule applies. « Show Less

First check to make sure that the batteries are good. Replace if need be. You can light the unit with a match for heat. However, it's more convenient to have the ignitor working properly. If all of the above does satisfy your family. Then return the unit to manufacture for replacement.

Of course you can do it manually. If you decrease humidity adjustment for example: 50% exhaust fan will be turn on.

yes it's automatic, once your secure the butane can. Turning the knob all the way to the end ignites the fire

Plug it in. Fill it to the inidicated level with water. Push down black lever at back bottom, below handle. Light will come on. When water boils, lever flips up and heat is turned off automatically.

Yes. Electric arc ignitors automatically come on as you turn the burner valves on. It is a very nice cooktop for the price. Wife is very happy with it.
