When the desired room temperature has been reached, the thermostat
knob should be turned slowly anti-clockwise until the thermostat is heard to
click off. After this the heater will keep the air temperature in the room at
the set temperature by switching on and off automatically.
In its minimum (fully anti-clockwise) position, the thermostat provides a
frost guard position. In this position (depending on the size of the room)
the heater will maintain the temperature above freezing.
Protection against overheating.
• An additional fitted safety thermostat protects the heater against
overheating and switches it off automatically.
• If the device switches itself off, disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
The heater is ready for use after a short cooling-off phase (approx.15
minutes). Plug the mains plug back into the socket.
• If this repeats, first check that the thermostat switch is set correctly or if an
object hinders the heating operation.
Cleaning the heater
Always unplug the heater from the wall socket and allow it to cool down
before cleaning.
Clean the outside of the heater by wiping with a damp cloth and buff with
a dry cloth.
Do not use any detergents or abrasives and do not allow any water to
enter the heater.
Storing the heater
When the heater is not used for long periods of time it should be protected
from dust and stored in a clean dry place.
Assembly and installation
Before using the heater, the feet (supplied
separately in the carton) must be fitted to the
unit. These are to be attached to the base of
the heater using the 2 self-tapping screws
provided, taking care to ensure that they are
located correctly in the bottom ends of the
heater side mouldings (see Figure 1).
Operation of the heater
NOTE: It is normal when the heaters are turned on for the first time or
when they are turned on after having not been used for a long period of
time the heaters may emit some smell and fumes. This will disappear when
the heater has been on a short while.
