Electrical connection
This heater must be used on an A.C. ~ supply only and the voltage
marked on the heater must correspond to the supply voltage. This
heater is tted with a plug incorporating a 13-amp fuse. When
replacing the fuse, a 13-amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362
must be used.
If the plug is not suitable for the socket outlets in your home, the
plug must be cut off and an appropriate one tted. A plug cut off
from a mains lead will give a shock hazard if inserted into a 13-
amp socket elsewhere in the house. To avoid this, it should be
disposed of immediately.
NOTE: The fuse cover of a non-rewirable plug must be retted
when changing the fuse. Should the cover become lost, the plug
must not be used until the correct replacement fuse cover is
obtained from your supplier or by contacting our customer helpline.
IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE: NEUTRAL
BROWN: LIVE
GREEN & YELLOW: EARTH
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond
with the coloured markings in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the BROWN wire to the terminal marked ‘L’ or coloured
RED. Connect the BLUE wire to the terminal marked ‘N’ or
coloured BLACK.Note: ‘L’ or ‘N’ must not be connected to the
EARTH terminal marked ‘E’ or ‘ ’ or coloured GREEN or GREEN
AND YELLOW.
If in doubt, consult your electrician.

The colour coding is noted in Fig. 5. To change the set temperature
press “ ” to raise the desired temperature and press “ ” to lower
it. If either button is pressed and held for 1 second or more the
temperature will continually rise or fall until button is released.
When the air temperature rises above the set temperature, the
heat will switch off but the fan will continue to run for 25 seconds.
When the air temperature drops below the set temperature, the
unit will come back on. If the heater is not operating this may be
because the set temperature is lower than the room temperature. If
no buttons have been pressed for 10 seconds, the display screen
will go into sleep mode. The screen backlight will fade to 20% of
its intensity.

‘Intelligent’ Eco Mode
This is the appliance default setting, the appliance will automatically
start up in this setting once power is applied and the standby
key is pressed. The LCD display will indicate the desired room
temperature and the appliance will automatically regulate the room
temperature accordingly. In this mode the appliance operates at
full power, however the output of the appliance is automatically
reduced and regulated as the room temperature approaches the
desired level. This mode optimises energy use by calculating the
most efcient and effective way to achieve the desired temperature
setting. The desired room temperature can be adjusted at any time
during operation by pressing the appropriate key.
Runback Timer Mode - See Fig. 11
The heater is tted with a run-back timer feature which can be set
in any of the operating modes. Press the “” button to switch to the
runback timer screen. The runback timer range is 1 to 12 hours.
The displayed runback time will be ashing on screen, starting
at “01 Hrs”. Press the “ ” button again to increase the runback
time by 1 hour. Pressing “ ” will cancel the runback operation.
Once the desired runback time is left to ash for 6 seconds the
timer will be set. The display will switch back to the temperature
screen with the runback countdown displayed below as shown in
Fig. 11. To cancel the current runback timer, press the “ ” button.
The runback countdown will ash to “OFF” then disappear. Once
the run time has been set the heater will run and the runback
countdown will remain on the display until the set time runs out.
At this point the heater will switch to standby mode. To turn the
heater back on, press the “ ” button.
Note: If runback countdown is active in Fan mode the text below the
fan symbol will alternate between “Fan” and runback countdown.
Tilt Switch
The heater is tted with a tilt switch which will prevent the heater
from working if the heater is accidentally tipped over in any
direction.
Overheat Protection
The heater is tted with a temperature limiter. If the air inlet or outlet
grilles are restricted in anyway the temperature limiter switches the
heater off automatically. To bring the heater back into operation,
remove the cause of overheating then unplug the unit from the
electricity supply for a few minutes. When the heater has cooled
sufciently reconnect and switch on the heater.
Electronic Thermostat
In addition, if the electronic thermostat reads an abnormal ambient
room temperature it will cut the power to the heater and display
“ERROR” on screen. When the temperature has cooled to an
acceptable ambient room temperature it will restore power to the
heater and “ERROR” will disappear from the screen. The heater
will return to previous operation mode. The heater will then operate
as normal, if the heater does not switch on this may be because
the room temperature is still warmer than the set temperature.
Cleaning
Switch off the appliance rst and disconnect the plug from the
socket. Clean the housing with a moist cloth, vacuum cleaner or
brush. Do not use any abrasive or caustic cleaning agents. Do
not use any ammable cleaning agents e.g. petrol or spirit for
