IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. If your radiator is equipped with a polythene tape used as carry handle, remove it
before connecting appliance to the outlet.
3. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use handle when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0,9 m) from the
front and top of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.
4. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
5. Always unplug heater when not in use.
6.
Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. If heater has leaked any oil, discontinue using the
heater and contact the service center as indicated in this instructions leaflet. Return heater to
authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
9.
Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or
the like. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
10. To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.
11. Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
12. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as
this may cause an electric shock, fire, or damage the heater.
13. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not
use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.
14.
A heater has hot or arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas
where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
15. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
16. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into the
same outlet (receptacle) or into anolher outlet (receptacle) wired into the same circuit.
17. It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or cord which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may be a result of a worn electrical outlet.
Worn outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging heater
into a worn outlet /receptacle/ may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
18.
Do not use an extension cord because it may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However,
if you have to use an extension cord, the cord shall be No. 1 4 AWG minimum size and
rated not less than 1875 watts, and has to be used only for supplying power to this heater.
19. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate receptacle. Please remember that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and continuous use: check periodically if signs overheating or
deformations are evidenced by the plug. Do not use the receptacle and CALL your electrician.
20. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable have been damaged in any
way during transportation.
21. Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or other packaging material have been left
between one element of the appliance and another. It may be necessary to pass
over the appliance with a vacuum cleaner.
22. When switching on the appliance for the first time, allow it to run at full power for
about two hours to get rid of the unpleasant smell. Make sure that the room in which
the appliance is located is well ventilated during this operation. It is normal for the
appliance to emit small cracking sounds when you turn it on for the first time.
CAUTION:
To prevent electric shock match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.

BE CAREFUL
Operate the heater in upright position only. Any other position
could create hazardous situations!
1. LOCATION
Place the heater on the floor beneath the coldest window in the room or any desired location.
Your heater will minimize the effect of cold drafts.
The heater must not be located immediately below a socket-outlet.
Do not use this radiator in rooms having a surface area less than 45 sq. ft (4 m
2)
.
2. CONNECTION
The radiator must be connected to a properly polarized A/C 110/120 V household outlet in
perfect working conditions.
Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and flammable material away from the wall outlet
where the heater plug is fitted in.
3. GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTION SAFETY DEVICE (GFI PLUG)
This device provides protection against electric shock due to ground
fault currents by automatically shutting off the power. To test the operation of the GFI plug switch the heater ON at either the 1 or 2 setting.
Press the TEST button on the GFI plug device attached to the plug
end of the line cord. The heater and fan should stop operating and the
Power Light should turn off. Press the RESET button on the GFI plug
device to resume normal operation of the heater. This device should not be used as on
ON/OFF operation switch.
“CAUTION: ALTHOUGH THIS DEVICE IS PROVIDED WITH PROTECTION WHICH
REDUCES THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, THIS PRODUCT SHOULD NEVER BE USED
CARELESSLY NEAR WATER.”
4. SWITCHING ON TWO-SWITCH MODELS
Turn thermostat clockwise to the maximum position. Switch on both switches. The lights on
the switches remain on independently from of the cycling of the thermostat. When the room
reaches the desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob clockwise very slowly and carefully
until you hear a “click”. This will automatically set your unit to cycle on and off at that desired
heat setting. (For timer instructions, see point 5)
Note: It will normally require approx.15 minutes to reach operating temperature.
With pilot lights ON, the heater is ON!
POWER ECONOMIZER
For more economical use, the Min. or Med. Watt
switches may be used individually, after unit has
reached the operating temperature.

5. USE OF THERMOSTAT
The thermostat operates on the room air temperature and not on the radiator temperature.
Counter clockwise direction, towards lower numbers will set lower temperatures. Clockwise
direction, towards higher numbers will set higher temperatures.
Antifreeze function
Turn the thermostat dial to the position and press the switches. The appliance will maintain a minimum room temperature of approximately 5°C thus preventing freezing, with a minimum energy consumption.
REMINDER
To completely shut unit off, ON/OFF switches must be in OFF position.
6.HOW TO USE THE TIMER
Please refer to the illustration below:
IMPORTANT: There are 96 tabs around the dial. Each tab represents a 1/4 hour
(15 minutes) and there is a tab for every quarter hour of the 24 hour day. Your appliance can
be programmed to switch itself ON and OFF at the time you want. With the timer you can
approximate your settings to within 15 minutes and program up to 48 cycles (1 cycle = 1 “ON”
+ 1 “OFF”) over a period of 24 hours (12 hours a.m.+12 hours p.m.).
The tabs can be pushed inwards or pulled outwards by merely using your finger tips. When
the tab is in the inward position (towards the center of the dial), the heater
will operate during
that 15 minute period. If the tab is in the outward position, the heater will not operate during
this period.
If you want to bypass the timer, all tabs must be pushed inward.
Timer operation
a). Plug in the heater.
b). Turn timer dial clockwise to set clock with the current time of day (see CLOCK SETTING).
c). Push tabs inwards for the period you want the heater to operate. For example, in the
shown illustration, the heater will operate from 14.00 (2 p.m.) to 16.30 (4.30 p.m.) and
from 4.45 a.m. to 5 a.m.
d). Push switch(-es) in.
e). Once you have set the tabs for the desired heating periods, your heater will cycle on and
off according to these settings.
f ). As long as you keep the heater plugged in, the timer will continue to keep proper time.

7. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Always remove the plug from the power socket and allow the radiator to cool. Wipe radiator
with a soft damp cloth. Do not use detergents and abrasives.
Should the radiator not be in use over a certain length of time, wrap the cable round the holder and store it in a dry place. This appliance has been built to give many years of trouble free
service.
In case of malfunction or doubt, do not try to repair the heater by yourself: it may results in fire
hazard or electric shock.
Call nearest Service Center (see attached list of Service Centers).
The appliance is fitted with a safety device which will switch off it in case of accidental overheating. To
reset, disconnect the plug from the power for 30 minutes, remove the cause of overheating then plug the
appliance in again.
ATTENTION: in order to avoid any danger caused by an accidental resetting of the safety
system, this appliance must not be powered through an external timer.
Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
