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 which is at least one metre away from any
obstructions, walls or inflammable materials (see also safety instructions).
Make sure a functioning heater is always placed on a solid, flat and horizontal surface.
Check if the control dial is set to 'OFF' (O).
Fully extend the power cord and plug into a suitable 220-240V socket. To prevent the
circuit overloading, check that no other appliances are connected to the same group.
Only connect the heater to an earthed socket!
Set-up and Operation
Turn the thermostat dial to maximum
(clockwise as far as possible).
Switch the heater on by turning the
control dial to one of the following three
positions: 800W, 1200W or 2000W. It is
most economical to heat the space at
full power, then to switch to a lower
power to maintain the temperature.
At all powers, the fan rotates at the
same speed; the difference 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.
To set a higher or lower temperature, turn the thermostat dial either clockwise or
anticlockwise.
To switch the heater off, set the control dial to '0' (off). Unplug.
Safety features
The heater is fitted with a tipping safeguard which automatically shuts off the appliance if it
inadvertently falls over. When the heater is returned to its upright position, it will resume
functioning as normal but, before reusing, switch off, unplug and check for damage. Do not
use the heater if it is damaged or malfunctioning, but have it inspected/repaired!
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.
Wipe the outside of the heater regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use
aggressive soaps, sprays, cleaners or abrasives, waxes, polishes or chemical solutions!
