2. Turn Selector Control (B) to II or I.

NOTE: Power Indicator Light (C) will illuminate
when heater is plugged into the mains.

Setting the Thermostat

The thermostat maintains the desired
temperature level by switching on and off.

1. Turn the Thermostat Control all the way to
the right (clockwise) to the maximum
temperature level HI ( ).

2. When the desired temperature is reached,
slowly turn the Temperature Control back
(counter-clockwise) until the heater switches off.

3. The control will now automatically maintain
the pre-set temperature level by turning the
heater ON and OFF.

4. The Power Indicator Light will remain lit to
indicate the heater in on.

NOTE: It is normal for the heater to cycle ON
and OFF as it maintains the preset temperature.
To prevent the unit from cycling, you need to
change the thermostat setting.

FROST-GUARD SETTING

This special setting will automatically turn on the
heater if the room’s temperature reaches freezing.
To set, turn the Thermostat Control all the way
to LO ( ), and turn the Selector Control to either
HI (II) or LO (I).

COLOUR CHANGING DISPLAY

Your heater features the revolutionary
technology and safety of Colour Changing
Display. As your heater warms up, parts of, the
front grill will change colour – a visual reminder
that the grill is warm and the heater is on. The
exact timing of the colour change may vary.
When the heater is turned off, the grill will return
to its original colour , thus indicating the grill is
cool to the touch. This may take up to an hour
depending on the environment surrounding the
heater and the cooling down time of the
element.

NOTE: If left in extreme cold temperatures
(-22° F/-30°C) the Colour Changing Display may
not perform. The heater itself will function
normally. Store heater in a cool and dry location.

NOTE: The colour changing effect may wear off
after continuous, heavy use of the heater or in
time. The heater will continue to operate
normally.

AUTO SAFETY SHUT-OFF

This heater is equipped with a technologically­advanced, safety system that requires the user
to reset the heater if there is a potential overheat
situation. When a potential overheat temperature

the heater off. It can only resume operation
when the user resets the unit.

To Reset the Heater:

1. Turn MODE to (O) and Thermostat to HI ( ).

2. Unplug unit, wait 30 minutes.

3. Plug in and turn ON.

Safety Back-Up Fuse
