outlet with a protective pin.
To put the appliance into operation, the following is
needed:
Putting ON/OFF to the ON symbol position ("I"): The fan
starts and combustion gets switched on after several
seconds.
Thermostat:
Use the thermostat to set the required room temperature.
The required value on the left display (pic. A/b) will change
by turning the thermostat controller (pic. (A/a). A/b). The
right display (pic. A/c) shows the approximate current
room temperature measured on the fan wheel.
After reaching the set temperature, the oil driven fan
heater is automatically switched off. If it gets below the set
temperature, the oil driven fan heater is automatically
switched on again.
Example of use:
"II" (pic. A/d) 15°C actual temperature (pic. (A/b))
20°C temperature required (pic. A/c).
The oil driven fan heater is now able to heat the “space” to
20°C and then is automatically switched off. If the
appliance remains in the emergency position, the oil driven
fan heater is automatically switched on again when it is
below the required temperature.
Example of use:
18°C actual temperature (pic. A/c) 15°C
temperature required (pic. A/b). The oil driven fan
heater now gets switched off. If the appliance remains in
the emergency position, the gas heating fan is
automatically switched on when it is below 15°C.
It may take a few seconds before combustion is started in
case of the first starting or after the oil driven fan heater
has not been used for a long time.
To switch the appliance off, the following is needed:
Put ON/OFF (pic. A/d) to the OFF symbol position (“0”). Or
the set temperature (pic. A/b) must be set lower than the
current room temperature (pic. A/c).
