4. Make sure that the infrared heater is always pointing down and
NEVER towards the ceiling to prevent overheating the ceiling!
5. NEVER cover or block the appliance, which causes overheating and
entails the risk of fire. NEVER hang or put objects such as clothing,
blankets, pillows, etc. on the appliance. Always observe a minimum
distance of 1 metre between the appliance and flammable
materials. To prevent fire, ventilation openings must not be
blocked. NEVER use the appliance for drying clothing and NEVER
put something on it. Nothing may lean against the appliance!
6. Warning! NEVER leave an operating appliance without supervision.
Do NOT put the appliance automatically into operation by means of
a timer or any other device that switched on the appliance
automatically.
7. Always check that the appliance stands in safe conditions before
using it! Do NOT use the appliance by means of a voltage regulator
such as a dimmer or something similar; that is also dangerous!
Connection voltage and frequency stated on the appliance should
correspond with the voltage and frequency of the wall socket that
you are using. The wall socket must have an earth connection and
the electrical installation should be protected using a 30mA
residual-current circuit breaker. At all times, the wall socket used
should be easily accessible in order to be able to remove the plug
from the socket in case of an emergency.
8. To prevent overloading and blown fuses, other devices may not be
connected to the same wall socket as the socket to which the
appliance is connected.
9. Completely unwind the electric cable of the appliance before
inserting the plug into the wall socket and ensure that the cable
does not touch the hot parts of the appliance anywhere or can
become hot in another manner. Do not put the electric cable under
carpets, mats, runners, etc. and keep the cable out of the walkway.
Make sure that no one steps on it and that garden
furniture/furniture is not put onto it. Do not lead the cable around
sharp corners and do not wind it too tightly after using it! Prevent
the cable from making contact with oil, solvents and sharp objects.
Regularly check the cable for damage. Do not twist or bend the
electric cable or wind it around the appliance; these things can
damage the insulation!
