USE
Fitting the wheels
Turn the radiator upside down on a rug or soft surface to
prevent damaging the paint nish. Fully unfold the wheels
by turning them outwards (Fig. 1). Turn the radiator back to
its upright position.
Caution
Always operate the heater in upright position only (wheels
on the bottom, controls on top).
Any other position could create a hazardous situation.
Location
The heater must not be placed immediately below a power
outlet. Do not use this radiator in rooms having a surface area
of less than 43 square feet (4 sq.m.).
Connection
The radiator should be connected to a properly polarized A/C
110/120V household outlet in perfect working condition.
Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and ammable
material away from the heater's wall outlet.
Turning on
Insert the plug into an electrical outlet, rotate the thermostat
knob to maximum and turn the unit on as follows using the
power selector:
- Turn the power selector to position MIN to select
minimum output (the min light will be on).
- Turn the power selector to position MED to select
medium output (the min/med light will be on).
- Turn the power selector to position MAX to select
maximum output (the lights will be on).
Adjusting the thermostat
When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn
the thermostat dial slowly in an anti-clockwise direction
until you hear a "click" and not beyond it. The thermostat
will then adjust the set temperature automatically and keep
it constant.
If your unit is a three-output version, in intermediate seasons
oron days whentemperaturesarenotparticularlycold,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 (41°F),
thus preventing freezing while conserving energy. In models
that come with a timer, tabs must be set in the inward
position.
Reminder
To completely shut the appliance o, turn the power selector
to the "0" position and then unplug the appliance from the
outlet.
UNITS WITH TIMER
Clock setting

Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one prong wider than the
others). This plug will t into the power outlet only one
way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to t, contact your electrician to replace
your obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to modify the plug to
bypass this safety feature.

correct time. If for example the time is 9:30 a.m. (day zone),
rotate the dial clockwise (following the direction of the
arrow) until 9:30 is aligned with the triangular pointer.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ROTATE CLOCK DIAL COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE.
The timer is like an electric clock, and will only work when
plugged into a power supply. When unplugged, the timer
stops and must be later re-set.
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.
- If you want to make the appliance operate without
programming, push all the teeth inward. In this case, 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.
SAFETY DEVICE
A safety device switches the heater o in the event of
overheating. Please call the De Longhi customer service.
