5.0 SITE REQUIREMENTS

It should be noted that the appliance creates warm convected air currents. These currents move heat from the room
surroundings to, and up the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
Installing the heater next to these types of wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air, (such as tobacco
smoke) exist, may slightly discolour wall finishing.
If the appliance is to be secure on a dry lined or timber framed construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to secure
the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances that any vapour barrier and/or structural members of
the house frame are not damaged.
If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to secure the appliance and/or which type of wall fixing to use, you should take
professional advice and obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more suitable wall location.

• From time to time, check the cord for damage. Never use the appliance if the cord or any
part of the appliance shows signs of damage.

• DO NOT run the mains cable under carpets, rugs etc.

• DO NOT cover or obstruct the heater in any way. Overheating will result if it is
accidentally covered.

• Never immerse the product in water or any other liquids.

• DO NOT use the appliance outdoors.

• Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is unplugged from the power and that it is
completely cool.

• DO NOT clean the appliance with abrasive chemicals.

• Never use accessories that are not recommended or supplied by the manufacturer. It
could cause danger to the user or damage to the appliance.

• DO NOT insert or allow foreign objects to enter the inlet or outlet vents as this may
result in electric shock, fire or damage to the appliance.

• DO NOT install the fire using an extension cord.

• Unplug from the mains supply if the appliance is not to be used for long periods.

• DANGER! The correction pens contain flammable liquid and vapor, that is harmful
