SAFETY INFORMATION

If the information in these instructions is not followed
exactly, a re or explosion may result causing property
damage, personal injury, or death.
Keep the area around the water heater clear and free from combusti-
ble materials, gasoline, and other ammable vapors and liquids.
Before operating any gas appliance, smell all around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the oor because Liquid Pro-
pane Gas is heavier than air and will settle on the oor.
Liquid Propane Gas is heavier than air and will accumulate at the
lowest points in the event of a leak which sometimes makes it di-
cult to detect at nose level. It is highly recommended to install a gas
detector near ground level to detect gas leaks.
This water heater is capable of producing scalding water tempera-
tures. Always check the outgoing water temperature before use.
Hot exhaust and casing may cause serious burns. Keep away from
the water heater. Keep small children away from the water heater.
If any of the instructions contained in this Operating Manual are un-
clear to you, contact a trained and qualied professional to perform
the installation.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
THIS WATER HEATER IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
THIS WATER HEATER IS NOT INTENDED FOR PERMANENT INSTALLA-
TION AND CANNOT BE PERMANENTLY PLUMBED IN ANY WAY.
WHEN NOT IN USE, THE WATER HEATER MUST BE DISCONNECTED
AND STORED IN A WARM AND DRY PLACE.
Always use a soapy solution on the gas ttings and connections to de-
tect gas leaks.
Do not operate the water heater with Natural Gas. Use only Liquid Pro-
pane Gas. Do not try to convert this water heater to Natural Gas.
If a gas odour is detected, turn o the gas valve on the gas tank imme-
diately.
Do not operate the water heater in strong wind conditions.
Do not leave the water heater unattended when turned on.
Never mount the water heater onto a combustible surface or wall.
Any alteration to the water heater or its controls can be dangerous and
will void the warranty.

The Onsen 10L Portable Tankless Water
Heater uses Liquid Propane Gas to heat
water by burning a ame on the copper
heat exchanger. The incoming water is
heated when it circulates through the
heat exchanger before being directed
to the water outlet (showerhead). The
temperature of the exiting water can be
increased by turning the gas knob on the
water heater, which increases the ame
output, or by turning the water knob to
decrease water ow.
The water heater is equipped with an
electronic ignition system that uses 2 “D”
type batteries or 12 volt for ignition. The
ignition system is pressure controlled,
which means the ame will only ignite
if the water circulating inside has a
sustained pressure of 10 to 80 PSI. When
the water ow is cut o (by shutting o the
water source or turning the showerhead
to the OFF position), the ame shuts o
automatically.
HOW IT WORKS

ENGLISH
GETTING STARTED
Check the box for any damage sustained during shipment.
Check that all components and accessories are included in the box:
Water heater
Gas hose & regulator assembly (factory connected to water heater)
Shower set
Garden hose adapter
Hardware pack
12 volt battery alligator clips
Connect the water inlet:
If connecting a standard garden hose to the water inlet of the water
heater, apply Teon to the threads of the water inlet to ensure a
sealed connection and to prevent leaking.
Attach the 1/2” to 3/4” brass garden hose adapter (included in the
box) to the Teon coated threads of the water inlet.
Connect the garden hose to the garden hose adapter.
Connect the water outlet:
Connect the shower set hose to the water outlet of the water heater.

Check the gas inlet:
Check the connection of the gas regulator hose to the 3/8” gas
compression tting of the gas inlet of the water heater (the gas
regulator hose should already be connected to the gas tting). If
necessary, use a wrench to ensure a secure connection. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN AS THIS MAY CAUSE A CRACK IN THE GAS CONNEC-
TION AND RESULT IN A GAS LEAK.
(WARNING: Do not apply gas tape, compound or other sealant to the
threads of the 3/8” gas compression tting. The tting is ared and
does not require sealant. Applying sealant to the threads of the tting
may prevent a secure connection, resulting in a gas leak).
Install batteries / connect 12 volt ignition:
If using 2 “D” type batteries for ignition, install the batteries in the
battery box located on the bottom right of the water heater. Alter-
natively, if using 12 volt for ignition, connect the circular connector
of the included 12 volt alligator clip to the 12 volt input connection
at the bottom of the water heater. Next, connect the alligator clips
to a 12 volt battery.
When using both batteries and 12 volt for ignition, the 12 volt takes
priority.
Hang the water heater:
Hang the water heater using the bottom and top brackets onto the
included mounting screws.
Connect 20 lb propane tank:
Connect the gas regulator hose to a 20 lb propane tank. DO NOT
OPEN THE TANK’S GAS VALVE YET.

USE AND OPERATION
Always check for gas leaks before using this water
heater. To do so, spray a mixed solution of water and
soap on the gas inlet connection. If bubbles start to form,
close the gas valve and seal the gas connection properly
before repeating the gas leak test.
This water heater comes with a ½” – ⅜” gas com-
pression tting already connected to the ½” gas in-
let during the assembly portion of the manufacturing
process. In the event that the gas compression tting
has been removed, make sure to connect it by apply-
ing gas tape or compound to the ½” gas inlet threads
to ensure the connection is sealed and to prevent
a gas leak. ALWAYS CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS AFTER
APPLYING GAS TAPE / COMPOUND.
Set the water regulator knob to maximum setting (turn to the left).
Set the gas regulator knob to minimum setting (turn to the left).
Ensure the showerhead button is in the OFF position.
Turn on the incoming water supply and wait for the water lines to
completely ll with water (water pressure must be between 10 – 80
PSI for ignition to occur).
Open the gas valve on the propane tank.
IMPORTANT: Check for gas leaks by spraying a mixed solution of wa-
ter and soap on the gas inlet connection. If bubbles start to form, close
the gas valve and seal the gas connection properly before repeating
the gas leak test.

Push button located at the bottom of the water heater to the ON po-
sition.
Push the showerhead button to the ON position (this will allow for
water to circulate inside the water heater and kick start the ignition
sequence).
You will hear a series of clicks followed by the sound of the ame
igniting, similar to an outdoor grill. If the ame does not ignite after 5
seconds, shut o the water supply and close the gas valve. Go to Trou-
bleshooting on page 15 of this Operating Manual for advice.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW
This water heater is equipped with a wa-
ter temperature sensor that will turn o
the ame when 60 °C is reached.
This water heater is equipped with a 20
minute safety shut-o timer that will au-
tomatically turn o the ame when this
timeframe is reached. To start the water
heater again, push the showerhead but-
ton OFF and ON to reignite the ame.
