a rewireable plug incorporating a 13 amp fuse. In the event of replacing
the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362

Using the heater
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE HEATER UNTIL THE FEET OR WALL
BRACKETS ARE FITTED CORRECTLY.
The product can be used as an installed or portable unit. Once the desired
application has been decided upon and the requirements below have been
met the product is ready to be used. Simply plug in and switch on at the
wall socket.
There are various control options available with various combinations

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.
We recommend that the heater should be wall-mounted in rooms where
children may be left unattended, see ‘Important Safety Advice’.

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
