Thank you for choosing this De’Longhi appliance. To get
the best results from your new heater please read these
instructions carefully before use. This should ensure
optimum results and maximum safety.

SAFETY WARNINGS

• The first time you use the appliance, operate it for at least 15
minutes with the thermostat at maximum to eliminate the “new”
smell. A little smoke due to the protective substances applied to the
heating element before transport may be given off. This is completely
normal and not a cause for concern.

• Do not rest the power cable on the appliance.

• Always use the heater in a vertical position only.

• Do not obstruct the hot air outlet grilles or the air intake grille at the
top or the bottom of the appliance.

• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or an authorised service centre in order to eliminate all risk.

• The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of expe­rience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.

• Do not use this appliance in rooms measuring less than 4m

2

. You
should avoid positioning it in currents of air which could disturb
operation of the heater.

• The heater must be positioned 50cm from furniture or other objects.

• As with any electrical appliance, whilst the instructions aim to cover
as many eventualities as possible, caution and common sense should
be applied when operating your appliance, particularly in the vicinity
of young children.

• This appliance is intended only for a domestic use.
A safety device trips and turns the appliance off in the event of
overheating or if it is placed in strong currents of air. To reset, unplug
the appliance from the mains socket and leave to cool down (about
five minutes), remove the cause of overheating, plug back into the
mains and turn on again.
A number of models are fitted with a special device which turns
power off if the appliance is tipped over, sloped or knocked. If this
occurs, you will hear a beep.

WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, never under any
circumstances cover the appliance during operation.

CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of
the thermal cutout, this appliance must not be supplied through an
external switching device, such as an external timer, or connected to a
circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

Important information for correct disposal of the product in
accordance with EC Directive 2002/96/EC.

At the end of its working life, the product must not be
disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local
authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer
providing this service. Disposing of a household appliance
separately avoids possible negative consequences for the
environment and health deriving from inappropriate

disposal and enables the constituent materials to be
recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources. As a
reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the
product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.

Electrical connection (U.K. only)

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13

Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off
from the mains lead and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.

WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after
removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in
the house as this could cause a shock hazard. With alternative plugs
not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15
Amp fuse. If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be
re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse
to BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must
NOT be used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from
your nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replace­ment fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.

B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the

instructions provided below.

IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the fol­lowing code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured black.
The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked with
the letter L or coloured red.
If you have a 3-pins plug, do not connect any wire to the "earth"
terminal.
