HINTS & TIPS

Where possible your electric heater should be connected to a power outlet
that uses a separate 10 amp power circuit. This will avoid overloading your

household fuse.

In the event that your household fuse is overloaded and trips, please note this is

normally caused by the use of excessive power outlets at the same time your heater
is operating (for example, a steam iron, kettle, toaster etc.). Please ensure to check
the use of the power circuit and adjust when heater is in use (i.e. turn off the heater
when boiling a kettle).

Should you still experience difficulty contact Everdure Service for assistance.
