Before using this appliance:
1. Check that the voltage indicated on the units rating label corresponds to the mains supply voltage.
2. Do not install the heaters less than the minimum height from the floor, distance to ceiling and distance to side walls as specified in Table. 1.
3. Ensure that the heater has been securely fastened in its final mounting position.
4. WARNING - This appliance must be grounded!
5. WARNING - Keep the mains cord away from the body of the heater.
6. If a socket outlet is used do not position the outlet immediately above or behind the heater.
7. Avoid the use of an extension cord with this product.
8. Do not cover or obstruct the heater at any time.
9. Do not insert any object through any slot or opening in the heater.
10. Do not use if guard is not present.

In the event of heater failure or for spare parts or advice, please contact your service agent.
CAUTION: Unplug/switch off unit from the mains supply before replacing an emitter or
any maintenance procedure including cleaning.
CAUTION: To ensure optimum heat effectiveness, it is recommended that the guard is removed and gently wipe the reflectors with a soft cloth. The emitter may also be carefully wiped. Please take care not to touch the emitter with bare hands.
Y O U R R E P L AC E M E N T E M I T T E R
It is important that when ordering a replacement emitter the heater model type is specified. Failure to fit the correct emitter will cause the heater to fail and become dangerous in use. Please contact your service agent to purchase your replacement emitter.
H AN D L I N G T H E R E P L A C E M E N T E M I T T E R
Your new emitter should be handled with care and without touching the quartz glass with bare hands. A cotton glove may be used for this purpose. Remove any finger marks with a soft cloth and methylated spirits or rubbing alcohol. Finger marks will burn into the emitters quartz glass causing premature failure.
