2. Technical data
3. Installation
The heater must only be installed and operated on a
vertical wall as shown.
Installation below a wall socket is not permissible.
The device plug must be accessible after installation.
It is not permissible to install the device in protection
zones as defined in the relevant standards.
In addition, a minimum clearance of 750 mm between
inflammable objects e.g. curtains, towels or heat-sensi-
tive plastics, and the front of the unit must be main-
tained.
The device is mounted to the wall with 3 screws. The
enclosed plastic bag contains screws and dowels.
Observe the minimum clearances! Dimensions in mm.
3.1 Mounting Instruction
Unlock the wall bracket (A) and remove from the
device.
Drill mounting holes for the wall bracket and insert
the dowels.
Align the wall bracket and firmly screw it onto the
wall.
Hang the device on the wall mount.
Pivot down the heater and push into place (B).
4. Electrical Connection
The voltage marked on the type plate must correspond to the
supply voltage (A.C supply only).
5. Heating operation
5.1 All Models
The room temperature is
regulated using the adjust-
able thermostat (A). If the
rotary knob is set to the
lowest setting i.e. to the ex-
treme left (see figure), the
thermostat switches the
heater on at an ambient
temperature of approx. 5°C.
ATTENTION!
Rooms can become overheated if left unattended
whilst being heated; this depends on the size of the
room, its heating requirements and the setting of the
thermostat. Persons who are not able to vacate the
room if the temperature becomes too high can thus be
placed in danger.
5.2 Models with 60-minute timer
Turn the timer knob (B) in a clockwise direction. Set the
desired time period (up to 60 minutes).
During the time set, the de-
vice runs at its full output of
2000 W. The thermostat is
deactivated. When the set
time has expired, the de-
vice switches to a lower
(1000 W) heating level,
which is controlled by the
thermostat.
The set time can be changed or reversed at any time
using the timer knob (B).
Heat output 2000 W
Supply voltage 1/N/PE~, 230 V, 50 Hz

5.3 Models with 24-hour timer
The operating hours of the heater can be set in a day
program (24 hours) using the timer.
For automatic operation, slide the switch (C) to the right
into "clock" position.
Setting the time:
Turn timer (D) clockwise until the marking matches up
to the current time.
Heater ON: Slide segments outwards.
Heater OFF: Slide segments inwards.
Each segment represents a switch-on or switch-off
time of 20 minutes. In order, for example, to set a
switch-on time of one hour, 3 segments are slid out-
wards.
The timer can be pro-
grammed for several ON/
OFF phases of different
lengths. The thermostat
provides a uniform room
temperature during the
switch-on time.
Outside of the switching
time, no heating opera-
tion - and thus no frost
protection - takes place.
Operation via the timer can be deactivated at any time
by switching to "Manual" or "0" (OFF).
The timer only runs when the device is connected to
the power supply.
6. Protection Against Overheating
If the permissible temperature is exceeded, the heater
switches off automatically. If this occurs, pull the mains
plug out and leave the device unplugged for a few min-
utes, so that the temperature limiter can switch back
again.
Then remove the cause, e.g. when the air grid is
blocked or covered. When the device has cooled suffi-
ciently, it can be started up again.
7. Faults
If the heater does not give off heat, check the fol-
lowing points:
Has the thermostat been set to the desired temper-
ature?
Has the overheat protection been triggered? See
chapter 6!
Is the fuse in the fuse box switched on?
Models with 24-hour timer: Set the slide switch and
segments correctly - see Chapter 5.3.
