IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce
risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. This appliance is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfa-
ces. Use handle when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furnitu-
re, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 3 feet (0,9 m) from the front
and top of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children or inva-
lids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
4. Always unplug appliance when not in use.
5. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
Return heater to authorized service facility for examination, electrical or
mechanical adjustment, or repair.
6. Do not use outdoors.
7. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor loca-
tions. Never locate appliance where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
8. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, run-
ners, or the like. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will
not be tripped over.
9. To disconnect the appliance, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.
10. Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
11. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation opening as this may
cause an electric shock, fire or damage the appliance.
12. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not
use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.
13. A fan heater has hot or arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in
areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
14. Use this appliance only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
15. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into
the same outlet (receptacle) or into another outlet (receptacle) wired into the same circuit.
16. It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or cord
which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may be a result of a
worn electrical outlet (receptacle). Worn outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior
to further use of the heater. Plugging heater into a worn outlet/receptacle/ may result
in overheating of the power cord or fire.
17. Do not use an extension cord because the extension cord may overheat
and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord,
the cord shall be no. 14 AWG minimum size and rated not less than 1875
watts, and has to be used only for supplying power to this appliance.
18. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate receptacle. Please remember
that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and continuous use: check periodically if

signs overheating or deformations are evidenced by the plug. Do not use the recepta-
cle and CALL your electrician.
19. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable have been damaged in any way
during transportation.
20. CAUTION: to prevent electric shock match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit 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 fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
DESCRIPTION
ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The fan heater must be connected to a properly polarized A/C 110/120 V household
outlet in perfect working conditions.
Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and flammable material away from the wall outlet
where the heater plug is fitted in.

OPERATION AND USE
Heating and setting the thermostat
- Turn the thermostat-function dial to one of the 2 different heating positions available (Fig.
above).
- Turn the thermostat-function dial clockwise in pos. 1 to operate the heater at 750W.
- Turn the thermostat-function dial clockwise in pos. 2 to operate the heater at 1500W
(the thermostat is at maximum position).
When the room has reached the temperature desired, set the thermostat by slowly tur-
ning the thermostat knob clockwise until you hear the click which switches off the heater
and then stop turning the knob immediately.
The temperature set in this way will be automatically maintained at a constant level by the
thermostat.
Anti-freeze function
- Turn the thermostat-function dial to the “anti-freeze” position (Fig. above).
When the fan heater has been set in this way it will automatically come on whenever the
temperature in the room falls close to zero degrees and the room will thus remain at a tem-
perature of a few degrees above zero.
Summer use
- Turn the function selector knob to the “Ventilation only” position (Fig. above).
Switching off the heater
- Turn the function selector knob to the O“Unit off” position (Fig. above).
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Always remove the plug from the power socket and allow the heater to cool. Wipe the heater
with a soft damp cloth, do not use detergents and abrasives. Periodically clean the air intake
and outlet grilles during the period in which the heater is in use with a vacuum cleaner.
Should the heater not be in use over a certain length of time, store it in a dry place.
This appliance has been built to give many years of trouble free service.
In case of malfunction or doubt, do not try to repair the heater by yourself: it may result in fire
hazard or electric shock. Call nearest Service Center (see attached list of Service Centers).
ATTENTION
A safety device switches the fan heater off if it accidentally overheats. To reset the unit for nor-
mal operation, remove the plug from the mains socket for a few minutes, eliminate the cause of
the overheating (e.g. air intake or outlet grilles obstructed) and then plug the fan heater back in
again. Contact your nearest Technical Assistance Service if the fan heater does not start opera-
ting normally again.
