The convector may cause risk of fire if, while in operation, is
covered by or comes into contact with flammable material including
curtains, drapery, blankets, etc. KEEP THE CONVECTOR AWAY
FROM THESE MATERIALS.
Do not insert and avoid accidental insertion of any external
objects into the ventilation or discharge outlets as this may lead to
electric shock, fire or damage the convector.
A convector contains parts that generate arcs or sparks. It must
not be used in potentially dangerous areas such as areas at risk of
fire or explosion, or areas loaded with chemical substances or
humidity.
Do not use the convector on soft surfaces such as beds, where
the grilles may be covered. Always stand the convector on a flat,
stable surface when in operation, in order to prevent it from
overturning. Arrange the cord in such a way that the convector and
other objects do not rest on it. Do not run the cord under carpets. Do
not cover the cord with blankets, carpets or similar materials. Place
the cord far away from busy areas, or in a place where it cannot be
accidentally pulled-out.

plug, replace the convector in its box and store it in a dry, ventilated
place.
