them outwards (Fig. 1). Turn the radiator back to its upright
position.

is the same of that shown on the rating label of the
unit and that the power socket and power supply line
correspond to the load specied.
- Check also the current capacity of your fuses. CONNECT
YOUR HEATER TO EARTH PROVIDED SOCKET ONLY.

or on days when temperatures are not particularly cold, select
minimum output to optimize savings and consumption.
Antifreeze function
Turn the thermostat dial to the position and the power
selector to position MAX.The appliance will maintain a minimum
room temperature of approximately 5°C, thus preventing
freezing while conserving energy. In models that come with a

the "0" position and then unplug the appliance from the outlet.
UNITS WITH TIMER
How to use the timer
To program heating, proceed as follows:
- Look at the time on your clock or watch. If it is 10 p.m.,
turn the numbered timer disk clockwise until the number
22 (10 p.m.) on the disk coincides with the pointer s(3)
on the timer. Set the periods of time when you want the
appliance to work by pushing the teeth (1) inward. Each
tooth (1) corresponds to a period of 15 minutes.
This will leave visible sectors which correspond to the
periods of operation (2).When set, the radiator will operate
automatically each day during the times programmed
(important: the radiator must always be plugged into the
socket).
- To change the programming, move the teeth back into the
initial position and set the new periods of operation.
- To turn the appliance o completely, as well as turning the
knob to the o position, you must also unplug it from the
power outlet to avoid continued operation of the timer.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ROTATE CLOCK DIAL COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE.
The timer is like an electric clock, and will only work when
