OPERATION AND USE
Turning the appliance on
Models with only a thermostat
This appliance can be turned on by rotating its thermostat knob
clockwise (B) until it stops at the last possible setting. To turn this
appliance o, rotate the knob to its lowest position and remove
its plug from the electrical outlet.
Models with a thermostat and two switches
Turn the thermostat dial (B) clockwise to maximum, then press
the switches (C) so that the red zone is visible:
- button in position“I”only = minimum power
- button in position“II”only = medium power
- buttons in both positions“I”and“II”= maximum power
Adjusting the thermostat
When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn the
thermostat knob slowly in an anti-clockwise direction until you
get to the setting — and not beyond it — where you hear a
click.
The thermostat will then adjust that set temperature
automatically and keep it constant.
If your appliance is the type with 2 switches, you could
utilize only one of them during mild seasons and on days not
particularly cold. You will thus use little electrical power and
obtain even greater savings in energy consumption.
Anti-freeze function (only for models with a thermostat)
Turn the switch (or switches) to make the red area show, then
turn the thermostat knob to the setting. When so regulated,
this appliance will keep a room at a temperature of 5° C. while
consuming a minimum of energy.
MAINTENANCE
Always pull the plug out of its electrical outlet before beginning
any cleaning.
This electric convector requires no special maintenance. All
you have to do is dust it o with a soft, dry cloth — but do so
only when the appliance is cold. Never use abrasive powders or
solvents.
