body, base & remote control.

ON / OFF
This button is used to switch the unit ON and OFF.
TIMER
A timer can be set so the unit turns off automatically after a set period.
When Pressing the TIMER button twice, the ‘h’ indicator will illuminate. Press
the ‘+/-’button to set the timer between 0-12 hours. Each press of the ‘+/-’
button increases/decreases the set time in 1 hour increments. If a time isn’t
set within 5 seconds, the unit will exit the timer function and revert to
displaying the room temperature.
MODE
This button is used to switch between pre-set operating modes. By simply

pressing the button, you can regulate the mode from LOW Power, HIGH
Power or FAN depending on your needs. The unit automatically starts in
LOW Power mode.
SWING
The unit will begin to oscillate after pressing the SWING button, and the
indicator light will illuminate. To turn off the SWING function, press the
swing button again, and the swing will stop and the indicator light will switch
off.
ECO MODE
When ECO Mode is selected, the unit will automatically adjust to suitable
settings according to the room temperature. When the room temperature is
below 18°C, the unit will operate in HIGH Power, and when the room is
above 18°C, the machine will operate in LOW Power. When the room
reaches 22°C the unit will stop working, until the room temperature
decreases, and will then start working again.
MOVEMENT SENSOR MODE
The MOVEMENT SENSOR function means you never have to worry if you
have left the heater on. When activated, it detects movement and remains
on. If it detects no movement for 15 minutes, it will stop working and enter
standby mode. The unit will resume working when movement is detected
again. This provides an extra safety feature as well saving you power when
not in use.

REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control can be used to operate all functions.
1. Remove the battery cover at the back of remote control (Picture
