CAUTION: Read and follow all instructions before operating this heater.
Failure to comply with these instructions may cause a fire, electrical
shocks or other injury to persons or property

1. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns DO NOT touch the Heating
element. DO NOT adjust the angle of the heater head when the unit is
hot.

2. Extreme care should be taken whenever the heater is left operating and
unattended.

3. Before operating the heater remove the unit from it’s packaging, fully
assemble the heater and check it is in good condition.

4. DO NOT let children play with the packaging, for example plastic bags.

5. DO NOT operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug, or after the
heater malfunctions, has been dropped, or damaged in any manner.
Return the heater to an authorised service facility for examination and
repair.

6. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions
as this may void warranty.

7. Check the household voltage to ensure it matches the appliance's rated
specification before using the heater.

8. Mount the heater on a flat stable surface e.g. house wall.

9. This heater is designed for use in gardens. The unit has been IPX4
approved, which means that it is splash proof. However, it is strongly
recommended that the heater is stored in a shed or garage during heavy
rain. When not in use always store in a dry area.

10. The installation and use of your appliance must comply with the
applicable standards in your country. If you have any questions please
consult a qualified electrician or call the EHS help desk number listed on
the back cover.

11. DO NOT run power cord under carpeting, or cover with rugs or runners.
DO NOT hide the power cord in long grass or leave close to an operating
lawnmower. Arrange the cord away from areas where it may be tripped
over.

12. DO NOT insert or allow objects to touch the heating element and never
place anything on the heater safety guard (e.g. towels), as this may
damage the heater and could cause an electrical shock or fire. Never use
your heater to dry washing.

13. If the heating element has stopped glowing it may still be live, please
check that the heat setting indicates the heater is off ‘0’.

14. DO NOT use the heater in areas where petrol, paint, or other flammable
substances are stored.

15. Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords as they may overheat
and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord,
the cord must be of minimum 1.5 mm2 core cross sectional area or larger
and rated a minimum of 2000 Watts. If you use a coiled (cable-tidy type)
extension cord, ensure that all cable is uncoiled from the cable drum.
Leaving coiled cable on the drum will cause overheating of the cable.
Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one heater.

16. Always check power cord for damage before plugging the appliance into
the mains socket. Do not use the appliance if the power cord or insulation
is damaged. Always use an RCD (Residual Current Device) socket or
plug adaptor to prevent an electrical shock due to accidental damage of
the power cord or appliance.

17. Always unplug the heater when not in use. To disconnect from the power
supply, grip the plug and pull from the power socket. Never pull by the
cord.
