conjunction with the illustrations, before using
the heater.
•Before connecting the heater, check that the
voltage indicated on the rating plate
corresponds to the mains voltage in your
home / office.
•Avoid the use of an extension cord because it
may cause the heater to overheat.
•WARNING: Risk of Fire. Discontinue use if
the outlet or plug become hot to the touch.
Overheating may indicate a worn or damaged
outlet. Consult a qualified electrician for outlet
replacement.
Safe positioning
•Only touch the heater with dry hands.
•DO NOT position where it can be touched by
children, especially the very young.
•DO NOT use this heater outdoors.
•This heater is NOT intended for use in
bathrooms, laundry areas and other similar
indoor locations. NEVER locate heater where
it may fall into the bathtub or other water
container.
•Position the heater in such a manner that the
air flow toward the heater and away from it, is
not obstructed.
•Allow a safe area around the heater away
from furniture or other objects; at least 50 cm
from the top and sides and 200 cm at the
front.
•DO NOT use this heater when it is lying on its
side.
•If the heater is tipped over, unplug it and allow
it to cool before standing it back up.
•DO NOT use the heater in rooms with
explosive gas (e.g. petrol) or while using
inflammable glue or solvent (e.g. when gluing
or varnishing parquet floors, PVC etc.)
•The heater cannot be used adjacent to curtain
or combustible material. Curtain or
combustible material may be burned if the
heater was installed incorrectly.
•WARNING: In order to avoid overheating,
DO NOT cover the heater ( ).
•DO NOT position the heater directly under a
power socket.
•When using the heater in portable condition,
do not place in the immediate surroundings of

Safety in use
• Extra caution is necessary when the heater is
used near children, do not leave heater
unattended.
• DO NOT insert any objects into the heater.
• Keep the mains cord at a safe distance from
the main body of the heater.
•Prevent overheating of the heater by keeping
the air inlet and outlet unblocked. DO NOT
hang anything in front of or above the heater.
• If overheating should occur, the built-in
overheating safety device will switch off the
heater.
• DO NOT use aerosols, inflammable
substances or materials sensitive to heat in
the flow of hot air.
• In the event of a momentary electrical
disturbance , the sample may malfunction and
require user to reset the heater.
• Do not use this heater with programmer, timer,
or any other device that switch the heater on
automatically, since a fire exists if the heater
is covered or positioned incorrectly.

BEFORE STARTING YOUR PANEL
HEATER
Please make sure that feet are properly fixed to
each end of the unit (see Fig. 2 and assembly
instruction insert). Alternatively you can wall
mount the unit following the below instructions:
Wall Mounting
IMPORTANT: Before drilling into any wall
ensure no electrical cables are present in the
area.
NOTE: Due to the multitude of potential
mounting surfaces, mounting screws are not
included with this product. Please consult a
professional or visit your local hardware store to
determine which type of screw is best for your
particular wall.
1. Remove feet from main unit, if installed.
2. Secure the mounting brackets (Fig. 4B and
3C) to the wall using the dimensions provided
in Fig. 4A.
3. Hang main body on wall brackets installing
first onto bracket “I” , then onto bracket “II”.
(See Fig. 4D & 4E)
SETTING UP - FIRST USE ONLY:
1. Put batteries into remote control by removing
the battery cover located on the reverse side.
Use 3 AAAbatteries (Not included) only. DO
NOT mix alkaline and heavy duty batteries.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
WARNING: Remove batteries before
discarding the remote control.
2. The “ROOM” temperature will be displayed.
3. Plug heater into mains supply. The power light
(Red) will illuminate to signal that the unit is in
stand-by mode.
4. The first time the unit is plugged in, it will
beep every two seconds until it is
synchronised with the remote. To synchronise
the unit with the remote control follow the
steps below:-
•Unlock remote by holding down the “MODE”
button for 2 seconds until the “LOCK” symbol
disappears from the screen. (This must also
be done before each use of the remote).
•Once the remote is unlocked, press the
‘MODE” button again and the unit will quickly
beep 5 times telling the user the signal was
received and the remote is synchronised. In
the event that your remote control does not
communicate- “sync” with your main unit after
reading and following the operating
instructions, please follow the below set up:
•Hold down both mode button on the
remote control and main unit for 5 seconds
(the power LED will blink once quickly).
•Release the mode button and the main
unit will begin to beep.
•Now please follow the above instructions
on how to 'sync' your remote control with
your unit.
•If you still encounter operational issues
please call: 0800 052 3615
5. In the event that your remote control does
notcommunicate- “sync” with your main unit
after reading and following the operating
instructions. Please follow the below set-up:
•Hold down both mode button on the remote
control and main unit for 5 seconds (the
power LED will blink once quickly).
•Release the mode buttons and the main unit
will begin to beep.
•Now please follow above instructions on how
to 'sync' your remote control with your unit.
USE OF GALILEOTM REMOTE CONTROL
•The display can show either Fahrenheit or
Celsius. To change the reading on the remote
control display, unlock the remote, then turn
the remote over and push the button located
on the right hand side, under the stand, with a
ball point pen tip. This switch will change the
reading from ºF to ºC and vice versa.
•Whilst using the remote, the backlight function
will automatically turn on when any button is
pushed and will turn off after 15 seconds of
non-use.
•The maximum transmission distance for the
remote control is 30 ft. (9 Metres). Do not use
or position the remote more than 30 ft (9
Metres) from heater. For accurate temperature
control the remote control must be used in
same room as heater.
•When positioning the remote control, use the
flip up stand on the reverse side.
•Always position the remote control at least 3
ft. (1 Metre) from the heater in a convenient
position away from draughts or anything that
would influence the room temperature
reading. For example, cold window-sill or
under warm lighting.
•Because heat rises and the remote control
senses temperature, the remote control
should not be positioned higher than 4 ft (1.2
Metres) from the floor.
•NEVER place the remote control on the
storage hook on the heater when it is in use.
This will upset the readings and prevent
proper and satisfactory operation. (See Fig. 5)
•The "Room" temperature will always display
on the remote screen if good batteries are in
the remote.
•If the batteries are running low on power, a
low battery indicator will appear on the
remote. Low batteries will effect transmission
distance and the screen contrast. We
recommend replacing batteries immediately.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
•Every minute while in “AUTO” mode, the
remote control communicates with the heater.
If the remote control goes out of range and/or
has low batteries, the communication will
stop, and after 8 minutes of non-
communication, the heater will shut off.
•Do not cover the remote control whilst in use
as this may affect the accuracy of the
temperature reading.
