Important!
When using the equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating instructions and
safety information with due care. Keep these
operating instructions in a safe place so that the
information is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, hand over these
operating instructions and the safety information as
well. We cannot accept any liability for damage or
accidents which arise due to a failure to follow these
instructions and the safety information.
1. Safety information
Read the operating instructions before using the
equipment for the first time. The equipment may
only be used as described therein. Any other use
is not permitted.
Keep the instructions in a safe place and give
them to third parties if necessary.
Check that the equipment has been delivered in
perfect condition. If it has suffered any damage,
do not connect the equipment to the power
supply.
The equipment is not supplied with a power
cable. Check the equipment, and in particular the
power cable used with it, for damage each time
before use.
If you discover any damage, do not use the
equipment or the power cable.
Position the power cable so that there is no
danger of tripping over it.
Do not pass the power cable over hot parts of the
equipment during operation.
Never use the power cable to pull the power plug
out of the socket-outlet! Never use the power
cable to carry the equipment or try to move the
equipment by pulling the power cable.
Never wind the power cable around the fan
heater.
Never jam the power cable between objects or
pull the cable over sharp edges or position the
cable over hot plates or open flames.
Use the equipment in enclosed rooms only.
Never open the equipment or touch live parts –
danger of fatal accident!
Never immerse the equipment in water – danger
of fatal accident!
Do not place the equipment near wet rooms or
wet areas (bathroom, shower room, swimming
pool, etc.). It must not be possible for the control
elements to be touched by a person in a shower,
a vessel filled with liquid or the bathtub.
Never use the equipment with wet hands.
Position the equipment in such a way that the
power plug is accessible at all times.
If the equipment is not used for a lengthy period
of time, disconnect it from the power supply.
Do not position the equipment directly below a
socket.
If the equipment is used for a lengthy time, the
housing can become very hot. Position the
equipment in such a way as to prevent accidental
touching.
Never place the equipment on deep pile carpets.
Do not use the equipment in rooms in which
inflammable materials (for example solvents, etc.)
or gases are used or stored.
Keep highly inflammable substances and gases
away from the equipment.
Do not use in areas where there is a fire risk (for
example wooden sheds).
Only use the heater with its power lead fully
extended.
Not suitable for installation with permanently
installed electrical cables.
Do not use the equipment for animal husbandry
or livestock breeding.
Do not insert any foreign objects in the
equipment’s openings – danger of electric shock
and damage to the equipment.
Keep children and people on medication or under
the influence of alcohol away from the equipment.
Maintenance and repair work may only be carried
out by authorized trained personnel.
Important. Do not cover the equipment – fire risk!
Pay attention to the symbol on the equipment
(Fig. 6).
The heater must never be used in bathrooms.
Never connect the connection coupling or the
connection plug of the used power cable with wet
hands – Risk of electric shock!
For electrical safety purposes provide separate
fusing for the equipment (min. 10A) and install a
residual current device circuit-breaker (earthleakage circuit-breaker).
The fuses on the supply cables to the power
sockets must comply with the relevant regulations
(in Germany VDE 0100). To comply with these
regulations, only fuses or circuit breakers suitable
for the cross-section of the cables may be used.
Using a fuse with too high a rating may result in
the cable burning and fire damage to the building.
Please refer to the regulations in your country.
This equipment is not designed to be used by
people (including children) with limited physical,
sensory or mental capacities or those with no
