General safety instructions

1. Before using the machine, carefully read this entire instruction manual.
2. Before using your new heater, check it, including cord and plug, for any visible damage. Do not use a damaged heater,
but send it back to your dealer for replacement.
Do not use the heater until it is been fully installed in accordance with the instructions under the heading „Description,
3.
Composition and Installation‟.
4. This heater is strictly intended for normal domestic use. Only use it for the additional heating of your home.
5. This heater in not suitable for use in wet or damp spaces such as bathrooms and laundry rooms. Do not place the
heater in the vicinity of taps, bathtub, shower, pool, fountains or other sources of moisture. Make sure it cannot fall into
water and prevent water from getting into the heater itself. If, at any time, the heater does fall into water, unplug it
immediately! Do not use a heater that has a damp interior but have it repaired. Never immerse the heater, cord or plug
in water and never touch it with wet hands.
6. The supply voltage and utility frequency, specified on the machine, need to match those of the socket that is used. The
socket used needs to be earthed and the electrical installation needs to be secured with a ground-fault circuit interrupter
(max. 30 mAmp).
7. Fully extend the cord before plugging in the heater. Make sure it does not come into contact with any part of the heater
and prevent it from heating up any other way. Do not run the cord underneath carpeting; do not cover it with mats,
carpet strips or similar and make sure it is not placed in any passageways. Make sure the cord cannot be stepped on
and that no furniture is placed on top of it. Do not lead the cord around sharp corners and do not roll it up too tightly
after use!
8. If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses the risk of overheating and fire. If the use of an extension cord is
unavoidable, then make sure it is an undamaged, approved extension cord with a minimum diameter of 3 x 1.5 mm² and
a minimum permissible power of 2200 Watt. To prevent overheating, always fully extend the cord!
9. To prevent the circuit being overloaded and fuses blowing, make sure no other appliances are connected to the same
socket or wired to the same electrical circuit as the heater.
10. Do not use the heater outdoors and do not use it in spaces, smaller than 6 m².
11. A heater contains hot and/or glowing and sparking components. Do not, therefore, use it in areas where fuels, paint,
flammable liquids and/or gasses etc. are stored.
12. Do not place the heater near, under, or directly opposite a socket and do not place it near an open fire or other heat
source.
13. Do not use the heater near or directly opposite furniture, animals, curtains, paper, clothes, bedding or other inflammable
objects. Keep them at least 1 metre away from the heater!
14. Never cover a heater! The heater‟s air inlets and outlets should never be obstructed in any way, so as to prevent the
possibility of fire. Never use the heater to dry clothes and do not place anything on top of the heater. Do not place it on
soft surfaces such as beds or deep-pile carpets as they can block openings.
15. Make sure that the air around the heater can circulate freely. Do not place the heater too close to walls or large objects
and do not place it under shelves, cupboards or similar.
16. Prevent foreign objects from entering the heater via the venting or exhaust openings as this may lead to electric shock,
fire or damage.
17. Never leave the heater unattended when switched on. Always switch the heater off before removing the plug from the
socket. Always unplug the heater when not in use! Pull on the plug to remove from the socket, never pull on the cord.
18. Always switch the heater off, unplug it and leave to cool down before:
- cleaning the heater
-
carrying out maintenance on the heater
- touching or moving the heater.
19. This machine gets hot when in use. To prevent burns, do not let bare skin come into contact with hot surfaces.
20. Do not use a timer or a similar product to automatically switch on the heater. Always perform safety checks before using
the heater!

and/or mental limitations, or by persons who have no knowledge of, or experience with, this appliance.
22. Keep the heater clean. Dust, dirt and/or a build up of deposits in the heater are a common cause of overheating. Make
sure these deposits are removed regularly.
23. Do not turn on the appliance if you have discovered damage to the appliance itself, the cord or the plug, if the appliance
is malfunctioning, if it has been dropped or if there are any other signs of a defect. Return the complete product to the
