they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance
• Place the EH0286 on a firm flat stable surface, ensuring
that it stands upright.
• Do not place on soft surfaces
• Do not use the heater without the feet attached.

OPERATION
Plug the mains lead into a 13 Amp mains socket.
If connecting via an extension lead, make sure that the lead
is rated at 6 Amps or more, and that it is fully unwound.
Switch the unit on at the mains socket.
Turn the Power Switch to the ON position. The power switch
will illuminate.
Unplug the heater from the mains when not in use.
USING THE THERMOSTAT
The thermostat can be use to regulate the room temperature.
Turn both switches on (high heat), and rotate the
temperature control fully clockwise.
The heater will then operate at maximum output. When the
desired temperature is reached, rotate the temperature
control anticlockwise until a click is heard. The heater will
then switch on and off to keep the room at the desired
temperature. The indicator light will show that this is
happening.
If the temperature control is rotated fully anticlockwise, it will
operate as a "frost-stat" and switch the heater on if the
temperature drops below 4°C, preventing damage by frost.

MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, turn the heater off, and disconnect from the
mains supply. The heater may then be cleaned using a damp
cloth with a drop of washing-up liquid to remove any dust or
dirt from the case. Do no use stronger detergents or solvents
as these may damage the plastic.
This heater is filled with a precise quantity of special oil.
Repairs requiring the opening of the oil container are only to
be made by the manufacturer or his service agent who
should be contacted if there is an oil leak.
If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorised service centre. If the mains
plug needs to be replaced, proceed as follows:
• Connect the brown wire to the
terminal labelled "L".
• Connect the blue wire to the
terminal labelled "N".
• Connect the green/yellow wire
to the terminal labelled with the
earth symbol or "E".
• Make sure that the cord-grip is
positioned correctly (over the
outer sheath of the cable) and it fully tightened.

safety-tested yearly by a qualified electrician (PAT Tested) in

FAULT-FINDING
If the EH0286 is not operating, proceed as follows:
Check that the mains plug is firmly in the socket, and that the
socket is switched ON.
Check that at least one of the power control switches is
switched ON.
The EH0286 also has a overload protection device to prevent
overheating. If this operates, disconnect the heater from the
mains supply, and remove any objects on or adjacent to the
heater that could have caused the overheating. Wait 10
minutes, and reconnect to the mains supply.
If the heater still does not function, or the overload protection
device operates again, consult an authorised service agent.
