IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using any electrical appliance, some basic safety pre-
cautions should always be observed to reduce the risk of re,
electric shock, and/or injury to persons. Read all instructions
carefully before using the appliance. Specically:
Danger!
- Do not operate any heater with a damaged
cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions,
has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
If heater has leaked any oil, discontinue
using the heater and contact the service
center as indicated in the instruction leaet.
Return heater to authorized service facility
for examination, electrical or mechanical
adjustment, or repair.
- This heater is not intended for use in
bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor
locations. Never locate heater where it may
fall into a bathtub or other water container.
- Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter
any ventilation or exhaust opening as this
may cause an electric shock, re, or damage
the heater.
- Use this heater only as described in this
manual. Any other use not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause re, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
Important!
- If your radiator is equipped with a polythene
tape used as carry handle, remove it before
connecting appliance to the outlet.
- Extreme caution is necessary when any hea-
ter is used by or near children or invalids and
whenever the heater is left operating and
unattended.
- Check that neither the appliance nor the po-
wer cable have been damaged in any way
during transportation.
- Do not use outdoors. Household use only.
- Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not co-
ver cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar
coverings. Do not route cord under furniture
or appliances. Arrange cord away from trac
area and where it will not be tripped over.
- Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an
appropriate outlet. Please remember that
outlets also deteriorate due to aging and
continuous use: check periodically if signs
overheating or deformations are evidenced
by the plug. Do not use the outlet and CALL
your electrician.
- Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or
other packaging material have been left
between one element of the appliance and
another. It may be necessary to pass over the
appliance with a vacuum cleaner.
Danger of burns!!
- This heater is hot when in use.To avoid burns,
do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use
handle when moving this heater. Keep com-

5
bustible materials, such as furniture, 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.
- To prevent a possible re, do not block air in-
takes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on
soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may
become blocked.
- A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts
inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline,
paint, or ammable liquids are used or stored.
- 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 circu-
it.
- 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 distor-
ted in shape may be a result of a worn electri-
cal outlet. Worn outlets or receptacles should
be replaced prior to further use of the heater.
Plugging heater into a worn outlet /recepta-
cle/ may result in overheating of the power
cord or re.
- Do not cover the appliance while it is functio-
ning in order to avoid overheating with the
attendant risk of re.
Please note:
- Always unplug heater when not in use.
- To disconnect heater, turn controls to o, then
remove plug from outlet.
- Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
- Always plug heaters directly into a wall
outlet/receptacle. Never use with an exten-
sion cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/
power strip).
- When switching on the appliance for the
rst time, allow it to run at full power for
about two hours to get rid of the unpleasant
smell Make sure that the room in which the
appliance is located is well ventilated during
this operation. It is normal for the appliance
to emit small cracking sounds when you turn
it on for the rst time.

USE
Fitting the wheels
Remove the feet and the wheels from the polystyrene
packing. Turn the radiator upside-down on a rug or a soft
surface in order to prevent damaging the paint nish.
- Fit the wheels to the spindles on the feet and push
rmly until they click into position. Pull each wheel to
check that it is correctly inserted.
- The feet with the casters must be tted with two arc-
shaped brackets and t them using the threaded bar
and wing nut provided, only between the 1st and 2nd
element and the second to last (see g. 1 to 3 inclusive).
Models with “easy wheel”system
Turn the radiator upside-down on a rug or a soft surface in
order to prevent damaging the paint nish. Fully unfold the
castors by turning them outwards (Fig. 4).
Turn the radiator back to its upright position.
Please note: Always operate the heater in upright
position only (wheels on the bottom, controls on top). Any
other position could create hazardous situation.

Watts economizer
For more economical use, the Min. or Med. Watt switches
may be used individually, after unit has reached the opera-
ting temperature.
With pilot lights ON, the heater is ON.
1. Location
Place heater on the oor beneath the coldest window in the
room, or any other location.Your heater will reduce the eect
of cold drafts. The heater should not be placed immediately
below a power outlet.
Do not use this radiator in rooms with a oor area of less than
43 square feet (4 sq. m.).
2. Connection
The radiator should be connected to a properly polarized A/C
120 V household outlet in perfect working conditions.
Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and ammable ma-
terial away from the heater’s wall outlet.
3. Turning on two-switch models
Turn the thermostat clockwise to its maximum position. Push
down both switches. The switch lights stay on independently
of the thermostat cycling. When room reaches the desired
temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise
very slowly and carefully until you hear a click.This should set
your heater to maintain the desired temperature by cycling
on and o as required.
Please note: The heater normally requires about 15
minutes to reach the desired temperature.
4. Use of thermostat
The thermostat operates according to room air temperature,
rather than radiator temperature.
Turning it counter-clockwise to smaller numbers would de-
crease the temperature; clockwise to greater numbers would
increase the temperature.
Antifreeze function
Turn the thermostat dial to the position and push the
switches on.
The appliance will maintain a minimum room temperature
of approximately 42°F (5°C), thus preventing freezing while
conserving energy.
Please note: To completely shut the heater o, MIN/
MED switches must be set in the“0”position.
Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than
the other). There is only one way it can be plugged into
a power supply. This is a safety feature. If you are una-
ble to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try again
by turning it the other way. If it would still not go in,
it is probably due to an obsolete outlet which should
be replaced. Do not temper with the plug or outlet to
defeat the purpose of this safety mechanism.
A safety device
A safety device switches the heater o in the event of overhe-
ating. To restart the heater, call the nearest Service center.
5. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Always unplug the heater from the power outlet and allow
the radiator to cool.Wipe radiator with a soft damp cloth; do
not use detergents and abrasives. Should the radiator not be
in use over a certain length of time, roll the cable around the
holder and store it in a dry place (see g. on front page).
This appliance has been built to last for many years of trou-
ble-free service. In case of malfunction or doubt, do not try to
repair the heater by yourself: this might increase the risk of
re and electric shock. Call nearest Service CenterVisit www.
