Before using the heater, it is vital that you consider the following points:
•
Do not place anything on the appliance.
•
Never cover the heater with a blanket, wet or dry textiles or similar things. The
appliance might overheat and be damaged, resp. cause electric shock, fires or
personal injuries.
•
Never cover the air outlets on the upper and lower side of the appliance or block
the air circulation! Keep a sufficiently large distance to curtains, furniture and
walls!
•
Never switch the appliance off with the power plug. Always switch off by pres-
sing the ON/OFF button first and then the power switch. After this, pull the plug
from the socket.
•
Never operate the appliance resp. pull the plug with wet hands.
•
The heater gets hot during use, so you should never touch the air outlet or the
front side. You might burn yourself.
•
It is imperative that you let the appliance cool down before moving it! The ap-
pliance will be hot for some time after it is switched off!
•
Do not use a programmable device, timer switch or the like to automatically
switch on the appliance, as unsupervised use is not permitted. (Fire hazard!)
•
Remove and discard all packaging materials and possible stickers before using
the appliance for the first time.
