Installation Instructions
Placement of the Refrigerator
The room should have a capacity (length x width x height) of at least 20m³ and must be adequately
ventilated as well as follow all relevant national and local regulations.
Further, the room should have a window (which can be opened). It is important that the refrigerator is
not subject to radiation of heat from a stove etc.
For best performance also at high ambient temperatures, there must be free air circulation over and at
the rear of the refrigerator.
The refrigerator is designed for a free-standing installation and the clearance to the rear wall and to
the possible side walls, should be at least 50mm. The clearance above the refrigerator should be at
least 600mm.
NB: The refrigerator must be adjusted to a vertical and horizontal level position, see bubble spirit
level supplied with the refrigerator. Use the feet on the refrigerator to adjust its position.
TO START PARAFFIN (KEROSENE) OPERATION

bottom of the chimney.

funnel (C) into the top of the paraffin filler tube (B). See image below.
4. Fill the tank with paraffin (kerosene) until the paraffin (kerosene) reaches the
maximum filling level on the tank level indicator. The tank will take approximately

light the wick. See image below.

REPLACING THE WICK
Remove old wick by first removing (a) gallery, (b) flame
spreader
and
(c)
outer
wick
tube
and pulling
out wick from the top. It may be
necessary
to
grasp
the old wick with a
pair
of needle nosed pliers
in
order
to remove it from the lamp. CAUTION: The
flame
spreader is often caught inside the old wick and be careful not
to discard this part, as it is necessary to operate your lamp
safety and c
orrectly
.
2. Wash the
burner
to remove any
accumulated
oil
and
dirt. Wisk
brand
liquid laundry
detergent
works well mixed 10:1 (10
parts
water to one
part
Wisk)
and then
allow the
burner
to soak for 15-
20
minutes.
Give it a good
scrubbing
with
an
old tooth
brush,
then
rinse
in
clean
water
and
allow to dry.
3.
Re-install
the flame
spreader
into the
center
wick tube.
Carefully
inspect the flame
spreader
for dents
and cracks.
If any
are present,
then replace
with a new flame
spreader,
so
that
your Aladdin
will
operate
correctly. NOTE: The flame
spreader
acts as a guide for the
wick to be easily
installed
over the
center
wick tube
and
prevents
the
inner fabric
tape from
catching
on the tube’s top edge.
4. Use the
paper
tails glued on the bottom of the wick to help pull
down the long cotton tails
through
the wick
channel
holes located
in the bottom of the
burner.
Use a long,
thin
object (like a
slender
letter
opener)
to help guide the tails down
through
the
burner
channels.
Then,
grab
the
paper
tails
and
pull
through
the bottom
opening.
If
necessary,
use needled-noised pliers to pull down
further.
DO NOT pull the wick completely down, as you have
to
first
attach the wick raiser arms to the wick clips.
NOTE:
It
may also be
necessary
to
insert
a slip of
paper
between the wick
and
the
gear
on the inside of the knob (or pull out the knob all the
way) while you
are pulling
the wick down to prevent the woven
wick
fabric
from
snagging
on the teeth of the gear.
5. After
installation
of the wick is
started
within the
burner, install
the
wick
raiser
so
that
the
elongated gear channel arm
is
pointing
downward.
SEE SPECIAL NOTES
(below) for
easier
installation. Also, be
careful
not to
roughen
up
the top edge of the
wick,
as it is
important that
the top edge be
completely smooth in
order
to
produce an
even flame
that
lights
up
the
Aladdin
incandescent mantle.
Trim off any loose
threads
with a
pair
of
sharp
scissors,
again
being
careful
not to
roughen
up the top edge of the
wick.

6. After the wick
raiser
is correctly
attached
to the wick,
and
it is
lined up over the gear inside the knob, gently pull the wick tails
down so
that
the
gear engages
fully onto the
wick
raiser
teeth.
Check this by
turning
the knob back
and forth.
If the wick smoothly
goes
up
and
down by
turning
the
burner
knob, you wick is
correctly
installed. Then re-install
the
outer
wick tube
and turn
to
right
to lock into place.
7. Next
re-install
the gallery by first
lining
up the
three notches
on the
bottom with the
cutouts
on top of the
burner
basket.
Then
seat the
gallery
squarely
into the
notches and turn
to the
right
to lock. Now
your re-wicked Aladdin
burner
is ready to be
returned
to your lamp
fount.
IMPORTANT:
Allow at least 5 minutes for the new wick to
soak in the
ker
osene of the lamp fount before lighting.
Otherwise, you may experience a weak flame and
poor
light.
