Using the heater

WARNING: DO NOT USE THE HEATER UNTIL THE FEET ARE
FITTED CORRECTLY.

The product is intended for occasional use as a portable unit. Please ensure

the feet are securely tted before the product is used. Once the feet have

been installed simply plug in and switch on at the wall socket.

Please note – the element has been coated with a protective lm which
will burn off during the rst few minutes of use and may cause a small

amount of fuming. This is quite normal – the fumes are non-toxic and will
quickly disappear.

We recommend that you open a window to ventilate the room when using

the heater for the rst time.

Positioning the heater

Always ensure that the heater is stood on a rm, level base near to, but

not directly beneath, a suitable mains supply socket.
Ensure that curtains and furniture are not positioned close to the chosen

position, as this would create a potential re hazard.

Product Assembly

WARNING: THE HEATER SHOULD NEVER BE USED WITHOUT THE
FEET SECURELY FITTED.

Lay the heater on its back so the underneath of the product is accessible.

Locate and remove the foot xing screw - see Fig. 2(a). Clip the foot in
place and secure using the foot xing screw - see Fig. 2(b).

Controls

Indicator Neon (selected models)

The indicator neon comes on when the appliance is connected to mains

supply.

Thermostat (all models)

The thermostat controls the heat output according to the room temperature.
This ensures that the heater will not produce heat unnecessarily when the
room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, Gradually turn the thermostat knob
clockwise until the desired temperature is reached. Allow some time between
increments for the room temperature to stabilise.
Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat knob to the
Max position. When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn
the thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat clicks off. The heater
will then automatically maintain this room temperature.
The thermostat also has a frost protection setting marked ‘ ’. This setting is
useful in areas such as garages to prevent frost damage. If the thermostat is
set to its minimum setting ‘ ’, the heater will cycle ON and OFF to maintain
a temperature of approximately 5°C to help protect against frosty conditions.

Switches (selected models)

Selected models are supplied with selector switches . There are two switch
types, one is an on/off switch and the other is a heat selection switch.
Depending on model either one or both switch may be included. The switch
operation is as follows.
On/Off: O - Off
I - On

Heat selection I - Low heat
II - High heat

Mechanical Timer (selected models)

Note: The timer clock will only operate when the product is connected to
the mains supply

Operation modes
