WARNING *** VERY IMPORTANT *** WARNING *** VERY IMPORTANT *** WARNING
Before installing and operating this product, the owner and/or installer must read, understand and follow these instructions and keep
them handy for future reference. If these instructions are not respected, the warranty will be considered null & void and the manufacturer
deems no further responsibility for this product.
This product has been designed to heat, therefore the risk of re is possible if it is not properly installed & maintained as per the instruction
manual.
Not following these instructions could lead to serious injury causing bodily harm, property damage, and electrocutions resulting in death.
This product must be installed by a certied master electrician, in accordance with all local & national building codes.
It is the user’s responsibility to assure that materials such as blankets, towels, beds, furniture, laundry baskets, clothing, etc. do not come in
contact with, nor come within 4 inches (10 centimetres) of the heater. Not heeding this warning could lead to re.
Never obstruct the airow locations, i.e., air intake and exhaust. This could cause the product to overheat and lead to re.
Certain locations are dustier than others. It is therefore the user’s responsibility to determine whether or not the product must be cleaned
based on dirt build-up on the unit’s air intake & exhaust, as well as inside the unit. Accumulated dust and dirt could cause components to
become defective, which could lead to re.
If the installer and/or user modies this product in any way, he/she will be held responsible for any damages resulting from this modica-
tion.
Assure that the heating capacity of the unit be sucient for the size of room it is intended to heat. If the capacity is insucient, the heater
will work constantly, causing it to discolour (turn yellow) and/or prematurely deteriorate.
Suggested calculation to determine heating requirements :
10 watts / square foot (0.3 m) based on a ceiling height of 8 feet (2.44 meters).
1.2 watts / cubic foot (0.3 m) for locations where the ceiling height exceeds 8 feet (2.44 meters).
An activated thermal protection (overheat sensor) warns us that the heater has been subjected to an abnormal condition. If this occurs, it is
highly recommended that the unit be inspected by an electrician or reputable repair centre to assure that it is not ruined.
A heater contains components that become hot and produce electrical sparks. Do not operate it in areas where gasoline, paint, or am-
mable liquids are used or stored.
This product guarantees the replacement of all parts and labour for a period of one year.
This guarantee is limited only to the factory repair of the unit and does not cover the costs of de-installation, transport, and re-installation.

INSTALLATION
• The unit must be secured to a wall, 12 in (305 mm) away from the oor and adjacent walls (Ill. 01). The unit cannot be covered or hidden by a
door.
• Drill three holes with a diameter slightly smaller than the one for the plastic pins provided.
• Insert the pins.
• Insert the two top screws provided, leaving a gap of 5/16 in (8 mm)
between the screw head and the wall (Ill. 02).
• Hang the unit on the two installed screws while holding it securely in your hands;
CAUTION! Before letting go of the unit, check that it is securely hung on the two screws.
• Secure the unit with the third screw at the bottom (Ill. 02).
The illustration 03 on the right indicates the airow generated by the heater. This air corridor must remain clear in order to allow good air circulation
and to ensure that the unit operates ecently. Leave at least 12 in (305 mm ) in front.
Do not install the heater below an electrical convenience outlet.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
• Make the electrical connections inside the junction box located at the back of the unit (Ill.04).
• Installation of this product must be made in accordance with all national and local building codes.
• The electrical connections must be made with a 12-gauge 2-conductor wire complete with ground.
OPERATION
The fan heater has two knobs, one for the
60-minute timer and one for the thermostat.
The unit has two operating modes:
ROOM WARM-UP WITH TEMPERATURE CONTROL
From the position marked “ “, turn the thermostat knob clockwise until a clicking noise is heard; the unit is turned on at a power of 1200 W and the
warning light comes on.
The thermostat maintains the required room temperature by automatically turning on and o the fan heater. The more you turn the knob clockwise, the
higher the constant temperature will be. The thermostat maximum setting is about 35 °C and the minimum setting“ “ is about 5 °C.
Setting the thermostat:
With a room temperature above 35 °C, it is normal for the thermostat to not turn on the fan heater, even at the maximum setting.
With a room temperature too low (under 5 °C), it is normal for the thermostat to maintain the unit on, even at the minimum setting.

To optimize thermostat usage:
• Set the thermostat to the maximum setting and operate the unit until a comfortable temperature is reached;
• Then, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise until a click is heard (the unit is turned o);
• Slightly turn (just a little) the thermostat knob clockwise;
•At this setting, the thermostat maintains the chosen room temperature.
QUICK ROOM WARM-UP
With the room temperature set at the required level, turn the timer knob to select the required operating time. The unit operates at 2000 W for the set
time to quickly heat the room and then maintains the room temperature set by the thermostat at a power of 1200 W.
SAFETY IN CASE OF ABNORMAL OPERATION
In the event the unit overheats, the built-in protection system automatically deactivates the heating elements and the motor, eectively stopping the
fan heater operation. In this case, the unit is inactive, but the warning lamp is on.
Procedures to be followed:
• Turn o the fan heater and let it cool for about 15-20 minutes. It is imperative to set the thermostat and the timer to the “OFF” position in
order to re-start it;
• Check if the dust lter is blocked and if so, clean and reinstall it;
• Locate potential overheating factors (i.e. obstruction in front of the air outlet or inlet grille, unusual dirt accumulation, etc.);
• Turn the fan heater on again and check for proper operation. If you cannot get your unit to work, bring it back where you purchased it or
have it veried by a certied electrician.
MAINTENANCE
FILTER
Your unit has a lter protecting the heating elements against dust and dirt.
The lter can be removed and inserted from the right or the left side.
For optimal operation, we recommend cleaning the lter once every 2 months and making sure to reinstall it on the unit.
Regularly vacuum the front grille to remove the dust. Accumulated dust and lint at the air outlet can reduce the unit’s performance and even dam-
age it. To clean the unit, use a slightly damp cloth. Note that cigarette smoke can cause unit fading, despite the cleaning.
WARRANTY
This unit is guaranteed for a period of one year. Should it become defective during that period, it must be returned to the point of purchase with a
copy of the invoice. You may also contact our Customer Service (with a copy of your invoice in hand).
In order for this warranty to be valid, the unit must be secured according to the above-mentioned instructions and regularly maintained.
