- Diesel/petrol station
Keep away from fuel tanks, compression tanks, fire extinguishers, clothes, or other flammable objects.
- Do not use a cigarette lighter for startup.
- Do not use the heater in closed and/or unventilated places.
- The heaters shall be turned off when filling fuel.
- Do not cut off the electric power during operation.
- If fuel leaks or discharges from the fuel system, please contact VEVOR for repair.
- Place the exhaust outlet outside to prevent any penetration of exhaust fumes.
- It is forbidden to cut off the electric power directly to stop the heater from working.
- Seal all gaps between the mounting plate and the car body.
- The machine will stop heating after over-temperature protection. Do not power off. After the machine cools down and is turned off, it can be restarted.
- After turning off the machine, do not immediately disconnect the power supply. It takes 3-5 minutes for the machine to stop working completely.
- After starting the machine for 3-5 minutes, it will work normally and heat up. Please wait patiently.
- When the heater is just started, the current is relatively high, so an adapter with a voltage of 12V and a current of 15A or greater is required for the power supply.
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
WARNING: Flammable material
During installation/use, service, and disposal, pay attention that there should be no flammable substances around the exhaust pipe. The exhaust pipe temperature is very high when working. Take care to avoid causing a fire by igniting flammable material. Please strictly follow the methods to correctly install insulation sleeves on the exhaust pipe and reduce surface temperature.
WARNING: Toxic material
During installation/use, service, and disposal, install the appliance with space for ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Place the exhaust outlet outdoors to prevent exhaust gas from seeping in.
To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning from improper installation, the product is equipped with a carbon monoxide alarm. When carbon monoxide content reaches 300ppm, the LCD switch will prompt CO to exceed the limit. At 500ppm, an alarm will trigger and the machine will shut down. The leakage point needs immediate checking and repair before use.
The carbon monoxide alarm device has a 2m extension cable, allowing probe placement anywhere. It is not recommended to install it too far from or too close to the diesel heater.
Product Function
The diesel heater is independent of the original engine system and operates on a 12-24V direct current. It offers two control modes: Automatic and Manual. The heater uses light diesel fuel and operates normally at temperatures above 40°F (4°C). Inhaled fresh air is heated through a heat exchanger by burning fuel and then blown to the desired location. Advantages include compact structure, light weight, high thermal efficiency, economy of electricity and fuel, and easy installation.
The heater protects vehicles from sudden temperature drops, improves interior temperature, and preheats engine coolant to prevent wear at low temperatures. It is conducive to car interior thawing, easier car starts, and defrosting car glass.
Internal Structure

Installation Precautions
The installation of the machine requires professional personnel.
It is recommended to use high-grade diesel fuel. Other fuels like kerosene, vegetable oil, gasoline, or waste oil cannot be used, as they may cause unpleasant odors and malfunctions.
No Side Installation
Side installation can lead to oil leaks, smoke, and carbon monoxide poisoning. Ensure 10cm ventilation space around the heater during installation.
Indoor Installation
Make holes in the wall for the exhaust pipe to vent outdoors. Insulate the exhaust pipe as it gets very hot and can cause a fire.
Outdoor Installation
Extend the exhaust pipe to prevent exhaust from being sucked back into the building via the back fan, which could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Power Supply Precautions
- The power supply must meet requirements: 12V voltage, ≥20A current (from direct source or battery).
- When using a battery, do not charge it while the heater is running, as insufficient current can cause malfunction. Ensure a firm and secure battery connection.
- When extending the power cable, use a wire diameter greater than 2mm. Thin wires can cause insufficient current. Use insulating tape to protect connections and prevent electrical leakage.
- Do not disconnect power when the heater is operating at high temperatures to avoid backfire and permanent damage. If power is cut, wait for the heater to cool completely before restarting. If restarting after a long power cut, wait for smoke from incomplete combustion to clear.
