Location and Connection
Remove all packaging material and keep out of reach of children. After removing
packaging, check the appliance for damage or other signs that could indicate a
fault/defect/malfunction. In case of doubt, do not use the appliance, but contact
your vendor for inspection or replacement.
Choose a suitable location for the heater, i.e. at least one metre away from any
obstructions, walls or inflammable materials (see also safety instructions). Always
ensure that the heater has sufficient space at the back to suck in air and at the
front, to blow out hot air (1 metre).
Make sure the heater is always in an upright position on a solid, flat, horizontal
and non-flammable surface.
Make sure the heater is switched off (switch to O position), then plug into a
correctly functioning, properly grounded 230V-50Hz socket.
Set-up and Operation
If the heater is being used for the first time (or if you want to reset the desired
temperature), turn the thermostat dial to the maximum position (clockwise as far as it
goes).
With the mode selector dial, adjust the heater to suit your preferences: fan only, low
power or high power.
Once the temperature in the area being heated has reached the right level, slowly
turn the thermostat dial anticlockwise until you hear a soft click; leave the dial in that
position. The heater will automatically maintain the temperature at this level. It does
this by switching the heating elements off and on when the temperature rises or falls
too much.
Note! After the thermostat has switched the heating elements off, the fan will keep
turning. This means that the air is constantly moved, allowing the heater to accurately
detect if the area is cooling down.
The thermostat dial is continuously adjustable. A higher temperature is set by turning
it clockwise; a lower temperature by turning it anticlockwise.
Safety features
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater off.
If this occurs, immediately turn the mode selector dial to O, unplug and allow heater
to cool down for at least 10 minutes. In theory, the heater can now be used as
normal. There is, however, generally a reason for an appliance overheating. This
may be because the heater cannot adequately release its heat or take in fresh air
(because the heater is covered, the grills are blocked, the heater is placed too near a
wall etcetera). Before using the heater again, therefore, remove or adjust whatever
caused the appliance to overheat. If you cannot find the cause and overheating
recurs, stop using the heater and contact your vendor or a certified electrician for
inspection/repair. Overheating poses a serious fire risk!
