IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not cover the heater. This will prevent it from overheating.
If any material ends up covering the heat, or close to the heating element, stop using it
immediately. Disconnect the heater from the mains power, then allow it adequate time to
cool down. Once it has done so, remove any foreign material from the housing of the
heater and the heating element before switching it on again.
If the heater is being used in areas with high salt concentrations, like near the sea for
example, then over time, salt, alkali, crystals and other foreign materials may begin to
collect on the housing of the heater or on the heating element. In the event of this
happening, you should stop using the heater immediately, disconnecting it from the mains
power. After disconnecting the heater from the mains, allow the heater adequate time to
cool down. Once the heater has cooled down, ensure that any foreign material has been
cleared from the housing of the heater, and from the heating element.
Due to the intensity of the heat produced by the heater, the front should be placed a mini-
mum of 1.5 metres away from any flammable materials, such as furniture, pillows, bed-
ding, paper, clothes and curtains. Ensure that there is enough room either side of where
the heater is installed too.
Please ensure that the heater is installed at a minimum height of 1.8 metres.
This heater should only be used with a 220-240V AC power supply. Please use the correct
power supply with this heater for safe usage.
Please note that all Athena heaters must be connected to either a 10A mains supply, 13A
