USING YOUR HEATER

Safety Protection Devices –This appliance is fitted with an
overheat and tip over protection system.
1. Overheat Protection –the power to the heating elements
will automatically cut off if the temperature of the heating
element exceeds a certain limit. In the event of
overheating, the heater will stop operating. Once the
appliance has completely cooled, the appliance will then
resume operating as normal.
2. Tip Over Switch –the appliance needs to be placed on a
flat, firm and stable surface to ensure that the unit contacts
the floor firmly and the internal tip over switch is level. In
the event that the unit tips over or is placed on an uneven
or very soft surface the appliance will not operate.
