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.
The power indicator will illuminate. The radiator is controlled via the rotary
thermostat which controls the radiator and only heats when the room temperature
is below that set by the thermostat.
Unplug the heater from the mains when not in use.

USING THE THERMOSTAT
The thermostat can be used to regulate the room temperature.
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.
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 finish.
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 and
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.
If the plug is fitted with a 3A or 5A fuse, replace with a 13A fuse.
FAULT-FINDING
The EH1674 has an overheat protection switch, which disconnects the power if the
element gets too hot. The usual reason for this is because the air-flow has been
obstructed. If the heater ceases to operate, leave it for 20 minutes to cool down,
then check that the grilles are not being obstructed.
Switch back on, and check that the unit is operating normally. If not, contact an
authorised service agent for repair.
