OPERATION OF THE HEATER
NOTE:- It is normal when the heaters are turned on for the first time
or when they are turned on after having not been used for a long
period of time the heaters may emit some smell and fumes. This will
disappear when the heater has been on a short while.

Choose a suitable location for the heater, taking into account the
safety instructions above.
Insert the plug of the heater into a suitable
socket.
Turn THERMOSTAT KNOB fully in a clockwise
direction to the maximum setting.
Turn on the heating elements by means of
HEATER SWITCHES on the side panel. Turn
on the heating elements by means of
HEATER SWITCH on the side panel. You
may obtain three heating settings
(750/1250/2000W) by turning the heater
switch knob in a clockwise direction.
When the desired room temperature has been
reached, the thermostat knob should be turned
slowly anti-clockwise until the thermostat is
heard to click off and the lights on the element
switches are seen to go out. After this the heater will keep the air
temperature in the room at the set level by switching on and off
automatically.
PROTECTION AGAINST OVERHEATING
− An additional fitted safety thermostat protects the heater against
overheating and switches it off automatically. The service lamp
then goes out.
− If the device switches itself off, disconnect the mains plug from
the socket. The heater is ready for service again after a short
cooling-off phase (approx.15 minutes). Plug the mains plug
back into the socket.
− If this repeats itself, first check whether the thermostat switch is
set correctly or if objects hinder the heating operation.
CLEANING THE HEATER
Always un-plug the heater from the wall socket and allow it to cool
down before cleaning.
Clean the outside of the heater by wiping with a damp cloth and buff
with a dry cloth. Do not use any detergents or abrasives and do not
allow any water to enter the heater.
