WARNING: In order to avoid
overheating, do not cover the
heater.
Leave nothing hanging above or in front of
the heater (e.g. clothes, curtains, bedding,
fabrics). Be sure that the back panel vent
slots on the heater are uncovered otherwise it

socket only. Do not plug into double adaptors
or multi-outlet power boards.
Make sure that the heater never comes into
contact with water. Never position the heater
under a power outlet.
Never turn the heater on if the power supply

is obviously damaged. If the power supply
cord is damaged it must be replaced by the

Always uncoil the power cord completely

a bathroom, ensure that switches and other
controls cannot be touched by a person in the

any other device that switches the heater on
automatically, since a fi re risk exists if the
heater is covered or positioned incorrectly.
Always turn the heater off and unplug from the

To avoid overheating problems the inbuilt
safety device will interrupt electricity in the
event of the heater overheating.
If this should happen:
• Check that the heater is positioned
correctly, not close to any furnishings.
• See that there is no dust or other obstacles
blocking the vent slots.
• Clean the vent slots if necessary.
The heater is also equipped with a ‘tip-over’
switch, which will turn off power to the heater
elements if it should fall over.
