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. It is most economical to heat the space at full power,
then to switch to half power to maintain the temperature.
Both at half and full power, the fan rotates at the same speed; the difference
between the two lies in the number of heating elements in use.
Once the desired temperature is reached, turn the thermostat dial back slowly until
you hear a click. The temperature is now set. The heater will automatically switch
on and off to maintain the set temperature.
EK3K Still 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.
To set a higher or lower temperature, turn the thermostat dial either clockwise or
anticlockwise.
If you want to switch the heater off, first set the control knob to 'ventilate' and
allow the heater to cool for 2 minutes. To switch the heater off, set the control
switch to '0' (off). Unplug.
If you are using the heater for the first time, it may emit a smoky smell. This is
normal and is caused by protective oil that has been used in the manufacturing
process. It will soon disappear.

Safety features

Overheating safeguard
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater
off. This may occur if the heater cannot give off enough heat or if it cannot draw in
enough fresh air. As mentioned above, this is generally caused by (partially)
covering the heater, obstructing the air intake and/or outlet grills or installing the
heater too close to a wall or something similar. When the overheating safeguard
switches the heater off, set the mode selector dial to '0' (off), unplug and allow the
heater to cool down. Remove and/or amend the cause of overheating and reuse the
heater as normal. If you cannot find a cause and overheating recurs, stop using the
heater, and take it in for inspection/repair.

Cleaning and maintenance

Keep the heater clean. Deposits of dust and dirt in the appliance are a common
cause of overheating so these should be removed regularly. Switch off the heater,
remove the plug from the socket and allow the heater to cool down before cleaning
or carrying out maintenance work.
