even heat distribution. If the air in the room contains cooking vapour or
cigarette smoke, and the heater is used on a carpet, the surface of the carpet
may become discoloured.
In addition, some nylon carpets contain dyes which may be affected by the
warm air flow.
Some soft vinyl surfaces are also subject to discolouration by warm air.
To prevent discolouration of carpets etc., a mat should be placed under the

the “Economy” switch, the green lamp
will glow.
30 min after the room temperature
reaches the preset temperature (set with
the thermostat), the Economy Mode, if
set, reduces the temperature by l”C,
after another 30 min it reduces the
temperature by a further l’C,’ this is an
energy saving feature. When the heater
is running only on low, the “Economy
Mode” does not operate. It does not
operate if the unit is under capacity for
the room size.

FILTER LAMP
If filter lamp glows during operation
check both air filters for dust. If there
is dust present, clean filters. See section
on care of unit. Turn heater off before
cleaning filters.
Check Both Filters
The filter lamp is not a safety cut off,
so the heater will continue to run with
the light on. Left in this condition the
heater may overheat and shut off
automatically.

SAFETY DEVICES
Over Heat Switch
When the heater gets too hot during operation (for example when the filters
or air outlet louvres are blocked) this device turns the gas off automatically.
Remove cause of overheat (clean filters) allow heater to cool, then re-ignite.
Fuse
The electrical circuits are protected by a fuse. When the fuse blows, the
heater will not operate at all. The fuse must be replaced by an authorised
person.
Flame Failure Device
This device automatically cuts the gas supply to the heater in the event of
a gas failure. To restore the gas supply to the heater, turn it off, then follow
the ignition procedure.
Oxygen Depletion Safety Device
If the oxygen level in the room drops below a pre-set limit, this device cuts
the gas supply to the heater. If the oxygen depletion device operates, turn
the heater off, ventilate the room, then follow the ignition procedure to
relight. Heater will not relight until room is fully ventilated.
Tilt Switch
If the heater is knocked over, the tilt switch will cut the gas supply. The
fan keeps running. To restore the gas supply, stand the heater up and
follow the ignition procedure. The tilt switch may also operate if the
heater is jolted or picked up whilst in
operation.
