4. USE

To turn the heater on use move the red operation switch on the timer to either the

on position or timer position. (See Figure 3)

When the switch is in the on position the heater will operate continuously under the

control of the thermostat knob once a heat output is selected.

To select a heat output, turn on either of the red neon switches on the right side of

the heater. Turning on one switch will operate half heat, both switches on together

will give full output, this selection and also the thermostat work in both “on” and

“timer” modes.

The timer mode is selected by moving the red operation switch to the timer position.

The timer is a 24 hour programmable unit with 15 minute interval settings. To set the

time, rotate the outer ring in a clockwise direction until the time of day is correct

(shown below as 18:50) and the time indicator is in the correct place. Do not turn the

outer ring anti-clockwise.

To set the heater to come on push the corresponding program segment to the out

position. Each Segment represents 15 minutes.

For example, the dial below is set to be on between 20:15 and 21:45 where the

“Out” arrow is shown. The timer will keep the

same program every day.

5. MAINTENANCE

ATC Panel heaters contain no user serviceable parts and therefore require very little
maintenance.

Ensure that there is no excessive build-up of dust/dirt on the heater element as this
can cause overheating and premature element failure. To clean the outside of the
appliance, wipe off dirt with a damp cloth.
