• Do not pull on the power cable to move the appliance.
• Do no use the appliance if it does not work properly or if it appears
damaged; when in doubt, contact a qualified technician.
• Avoid allowing the appliance to overheat; to this end, check that
the inlet and outlet are free from obstructions: do not leave
anything hanging over or under the unit. Should overheating
occur, the in-built safety device will stop the convection heater
from running. To restore operation, remove the plug from the
mains and wait for it to cool (about 20-30 minutes) and insert the
plug into the plug point once again.
INSTALLATION
• After unpacking, check the integrity of the appliance; if in doubt, do not use it and contact a
qualified technician. The packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, metal staples, etc.)
must not be left within reach of children, as they constitute possible safety risks and must be
disposed of according to applicable regulations.
• Before connecting the heater check that the voltage shown on the specifications plate
corresponds to that of the electrical supply, and that the plug is effectively grounded. In the
event of incompatibility between the power supply and the plug, have the plug replaced with
a suitable model by a qualified professional, who should ensure that the size of the cable is
suitable for the power used by the unit. The use of adaptors or extensions is generally not
advisable; if it is necessary to use them, they must comply with safety regulations and the
total current (amps) must not be rated lower than the maximum current of the the appliance.
• Place the convection heater far from any other source of heat, from flammable material
(curtains, tapestries, etc.), from flammable gases or flammable material (spray cans) and from
materials that can be deformed by heat. Make sure there is 100cm of free space in front of
the heater and 30cm free space on both sides and at the back (at the portable installation).
• The surface must be stable, not sloping (as the unit may fall over), heat resistant.
• Ensure that the power cable is correctly positioned and does not come into contact with
hot parts or sharp edges, nor become wound around the appliance itself, is not twisted and
does not snag, in order to prevent the appliance from falling. Make sure there's no risk of
tripping, to prevent people from accidentally tripping over it or being injured.
• Make sure that the air inlet and outlet are not blocked, to prevent fire hazards or possible
overheating; do not cover the device, nor use it for drying laundry.
• If there is a fault or the appliance is not working correctly, switch it off and have it checked
by a qualified professional. Repairs done by an unqualified person can be dangerous and
cause the guarantee to become void.
