I have one of the old style, rectangular (vertical) DeLonghi gas heaters that takes your average blue gas cylinder. It has two of the ceramic heater 'elements' (ceramic?) on the front.
I bought it new a couple of years ago from B&Q but only properly used it for the first time today.
Unfortunately I can't find the instruction manual, but I find that after it's been on for a while, turning the top mounted black dial to the 'off' position (marked with a dot) doesn't turn the gas off. I need to turn the gas tap off on the adaptor that connects from the heater to the cylinder. It then goes off, but if I turn the tap back on again I can hear gas coming out.
Is this a fault with the heater or normal operation?
I'm sure I remember reading something along these lines when I first got the heater (ie turn the tap off after use) but am unsure.
Can anyone advise please?
Thanks
