is not recommended; if their use is indispensable, they must conform to existing safety standards
and their current capacity (amperes) must not be less that the maximum of the heater.
Attention: before use the appliance remove the detachable coupon to stick the handle.
• Before each use, verify that the heater is in good condition and that the electrical cord is not
damaged: in the case of doubt, ask for professionally qualified help.
• Make sure that the cable is correctly positioned and that it is not in contact with hot parts or sharp
edges, nor wrapped around the device or twisted.
• Position the fan heater far from other sources of heat, inflammable materials (curtains, carpets,
etc.), inflammable gases or explosive materials (spray cans) and from materials that can deform on
exposure to heat. Make sure that there is 100 cm of free space in front of the fan heater and 30 cm
on the sides. Do not use the heater in the immediate vicinity of a bathtub, shower or swimming
pool (to avoid drops of water falling on the heater or the heater falling in the water), or in places
where it could be subject to shocks.
• Do not hang or simply pull the unit to the wall or walls.
• Make sure that the fan heater is working correctly: if not, turn the heater off and have it checked by
professionally qualified personnel.
• Make sure that the air-intake grid is not obstructed by objects, fabrics or anything else to avoid the
heater overheating or breaking.
• In the case of a breakdown or fault, switch off the appliance and have it checked by a
professionally qualified technician; repairs made by unqualified persons can be dangerous and
render void the warranty.
OPERATION
Before each use, ensure that the appliance is in good working order, and that the power cord is not
damaged: if the cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service centre or by
someone with a similar qualification in order to prevent any risks.
Ensure the inlet and the heating element are free of dust, lint, or anything similar: this improves the
fan heater's performance, and prevents overheating. Check for these conditions periodically.
The fan heater is equipped with the following adjustment devices:
0/I Master switch (1), turns the appliance on and off
/stand-by button (2) activates or interrupts the functions
(7) button to adjust the room temperature between 5<°C<35 or (41<°F<95): pressing in
position to increase, in
decreases by 1°C (1°F)
The thermostat is pre-set to 30°C, and then to the most recent temperature set in °C.
button (4): in "ECO" mode, the fan heater is controlled by the thermostat and, depending
on the difference between the °C value set on the thermostat and the °C of the surrounding
environment, the following functions are activated:
- fan only: if the °C temperature of the surrounding environment is higher than or equal to the
°C temperature set
- hot air: if the °C temperature of the surrounding environment is lower than the °C temperature
set, and no lower than 4°C
- very hot air: if the °C temperature of the surrounding environment is lower than the °C
temperature set, and lower than 4°C
When the temperature has reached the value set, the heating element is deactivated but the fan
continues to operate: the heating element will begin to heat again when the temperature drops.
