When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be taken to avoid
the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury, including the following:
1. Read all instructions carefully before using the appliance.
2. If your radiator is equipped with a polythene tape used as carry handle, remove it
before connecting appliance to the outlet.
3. This appliance gets very hot when in use. To prevent burns, do not touch hot
surfaces with bare skin. Use the handle when moving the appliance. Keep all flam-
mable materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, paper, clothing, and curtains
at least 3 feet (90 cm) from the front and top of the appliance also avoid contact
with the sides and back.
4. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
5. Always disconnect the plug from the power outlet when the appliance is not in use.
6. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after faulty opera-
tion, or when it has been dropped or damaged in any way (ex.: if an oil leakage
appears). Contact the nearest authorized service facility for examination, electri-
cal or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
7. Do not use the appliance outdoors.
8. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas, or similar indoor
locations. Never position the appliance where it may fall into a bathtub or come in
contact with water.
9. Do not run the power cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs,
runners, or the like. Keep the cord away from any passageways where it could
be tripped over.
10. To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.
11. Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
12. Do not wrap the cord around the appliance immediately after use.
13. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening
as this may cause electric shock or fire, or damage the appliance.
14. To prevent a possible fire, do not block ventilation or exhaust opening in any
way. Do not use the appliance on soft surfaces, such as beds, where the openings
may become blocked.
15. Do not cover the appliance while it is functioning in order to avoid overheating
and the risk of fire.
16 The internal parts of the appliance can become very hot or produce sparks
during operation. Do not use the appliance in areas where gasoline, paints, or other
flammable liquids are used or stored.
17.Use this appliance only as described in this manual. Any other use not indicated
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
18. To prevent current overload and blown fuses, make sure that no other appliance is
plugged into the same outlet or into another outlet wired into the same circuit.
19. It is normal for heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. However, an

HOW TO USE YOUR HEATER
“EASY WHEEL”SYSTEM
Turn the radiator upside-down on a rug or a soft surface in order to prevent damaging
the paint finish. Fully unfold the castors 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 hazardous situation!
excessively hot or deformed plug or cord is not normal and may be the result of a
defective electrical outlet. Defective outlets must be replaced before using the hea-
ter. Plugging the heater into a worn outlet may result in overheating of the power
cord or maycause the risk of fire.
20. If the supply cord is damaged, to reduce the risk of malfunction it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a licensed and qualified professional.
21.Do not use this appliance with an extension cord or outlet strip. Connect the
appliance directly to a suitable outlet.
22. Make sure that the plug is fully inserted into the outlet. Wall outlets may deteriorate
with time, so check the plug periodically for signs of overheating or deformation.
If the outlet has deteriorated, stop using it and have it repaired.
23. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cord have been damaged during
shipping.
24. Make sure that no styrofoam or other packing materials remain in the appliance.
It may be necessary to pass over the appliance with a vacuum cleaner.
25. The first time the appliance is used, run it at the maximum power for at least
two hours. During this time, ventilate the room thoroughly to eliminate the “new”
smell released by the appliance. It is completely normal for the appliance to emit
“creaking” sounds the first time it is run.
26.CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, make sure the wide prong of the plug is
inserted in the wide slot of the outlet.
27. Do not place the heater near a bed because objects such as pillows or blankets can
fall off the bed and be ignited by the heater.
28. Extreme caution is necessary whenever the heater is left operating unattended.
29. Do not open the appliance. No userserviceable parts inside.

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 flammable
material 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 care-
fully until you hear a click. This should set your heater to maintain the desired tempera-
ture by cycling on and off as required. Note: The room may require up to an hour to
reach the desired temperature depending on room size and conditions.
4. USE OF THERMOSTAT
The thermostat operates according to room air temperature, rather than radiator tem-
perature. Turning it counter-clockwise to smaller numbers would decrease the tempe-
rature; 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 41°F (5°C), thus preven-
ting freezing while conserving energy.
REMINDER
To completely shut the heater off, 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 unable 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 tamper with the plug or outlet to
defeat the purpose of this safety mechanism.
WATT ECONOMIZER
To conserve energy, use the Min. or Med.
position after the unit has reached the desired
operating temperature
With pilot lights ON, the heater is ON!
1. LOCATION
Place heater on the floor beneath the coldest window in the room, or any other loca-
tion. Your heater will reduce the effect of cold drafts. The heater should not be placed
immediately below a power outlet. Do not use this radiator in rooms with a floor area
of less than 43 square feet (4 sq.m.).

A safety device
A safety device switches the heater off and emits a beepin the event of overheating. To
restart the heater, call the nearest Service center.
Note: To avoid overheating the appliance, do not cover it.
Tip over safety switch
A safety tip-over switch turns the heater off if it tips over or is positioned in an impro-
per way that could jeopardize safety. To reset, disconnect the plug from the outlet, put
the appliance in the upright position, then plug the appliance in again.
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 radia-
tor not be in use over a certain length of time, roll the cable around the holder and
store it in a dry place. This appliance has been built to last for many years of trouble-
free service. In case of malfunction or doubt, do not try to repair the heater by yourself:
this might increase the risk of fire and electric shock. Call nearest Service Center Visit
