IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to the reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. If your appliance is equipped with a polythene tape used as carry handle, remove it before connecting the appliance to the outlet.
3. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use the
built-in handle when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows,
bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0,9 m) away from the front, top, sides and
rear of the heater.
4. Extreme caution is necessary when the heater is used by or near children and whenever the heater is left operating unattended.
5. Always unplug heater when not in use.
6. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. If heater has leaked any oil, discontinue using the
heater and contact the service center as indicated in the instruction leaflet. Return heater to authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Never place this heater where it may fall into a bathtub or any other water container.
9. Do not run the power cord under carpeting. Do not cover the power cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
10. To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then unplug it.
11. Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
12. Do not insert or allow any foreign object to enter the air intakes or the exhaust as this may cause
an electric shock, the risk of fire, or damage to the heater.
13. To prevent the risk of fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft
surfaces, like a bed, where air openings may become blocked.
14. A heater has hot or arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas where gasoline, paint,
or flammable liquids are used or stored.
15. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
16. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into the same
outlet or into another outlet wired into the same circuit.
17. It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or cord which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may be the result of a worn electrical outlet.
Worn outlets should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging heater into a worn
outlet may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
18. This heater is not intended for use with an extension cord. Plug the cord directly into an appropriate wall outlet.
19. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate outlet. Please remember that outlets also
deteriorate due to aging and continuous use: check periodically if signs of overheating or deformations are present on the plug. If the oulet is deteriorated or damaged, do not use it and CALL
your electrician.
20. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable have been damaged in any way during
transportation.
21. Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or other packaging material have been left between one
element of the appliance and another.
22. When switching on the appliance for the first time, allow it to run at full power for at least two
hours to get rid of the unpleasant smell. Make sure that the room in which the appliance is located is well ventilated during this operation. It is normal for the appliance to emit small crackling
sounds when you turn it on for the first time.
23. CAUTION: to prevent electric shock match wide blade of plug to wide slot, then fully insert.
24. Do not cover the appliance while it is functioning in order to avoid overheating and the risk of
fire.

BE CAREFUL
Operate the heater in upright position only. Any other position could
create hazardous situations!
1. LOCATION
Place the heater on the floor beneath the coldest window in the room or any desired location. Your
heater will minimize the effect of cold drafts. The heater must not be located immediately below an
outlet. Do not use this heater in rooms having a surface area less than 45 sq. ft (4 m
2
).
2. CONNECTION
The radiator must be connected to a properly polarized A/C 110/120 V household outlet in perfect working conditions.
Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and flammable material away from the wall outlet where
the heater plug is fitted in.
3. GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTION SAFETY DEVICE (GFI PLUG)
This device provides protection against electric shock due to ground fault currents by automatically
shutting off the power. To test the operation of the GFI plug switch the
heater ON at either the 1 or 2 setting. Press the TEST button on the GFI
plug device attached to the plug end of the power cord. The heater and
fan should stop operating and the Power Light should turn off. Press the
RESET button on the GFI plug device to resume normal operation of the
heater. This device should not be used as on ON/OFF operation switch.
“CAUTION: ALTHOUGH THIS DEVICE IS PROVIDED WITH PROTECTION
WHICH REDUCES THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, THIS PRODUCT SHOULD NEVER BE USED
CARELESSLY NEAR WATER.”
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
4. USE OF THERMOSTAT
Turn thermostat clockwise to the maximum position. Switch on both switches. The lights on the switches remain on independently from of the cycling of the thermostat. When the room reaches the
desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob clockwise very slowly and carefully until you hear a
“click”. This will automatically set your unit to cycle on and off at that desired heat setting. (For
timer instructions, see point 5).
Note: It will normally require approx.15 minutes to reach operating temperature.
With pilot lights ON, the heater is ON!
POWER ECONOMIZER
For more economical use, the Min. or Med. power switches
may be used individually, after unit has reached the operating
temperature.

Frost prevention mode (anti-freeze setting)
Turn the thermostat dial to the position and press the switches. The appliance will maintain a
minimum room temperature of approximately 5°C (41 F) thus preventing freezing conditions with
a minimum energy consumption.
REMINDER
To completely shut unit off, ON/OFF switches must be in OFF position.
5.HOW TO USE THE 24 PROGRAMMABLE CLOCK TIMER
Please refer to the illustration below:
IMPORTANT: There are 96 notches around the dial. Each notch represents a 1/4 hour
(15 minutes). Your appliance can be programmed to switch itself ON and OFF at the time you
want. With the timer you can
approximate your settings to within 15 minutes and program up to 48 cycles (1 cycle = 1
“ON” + 1 “OFF”) over a period of 24 hours (12 hours a.m.+12 hours p.m.).
The notches can be pushed inwards or pulled outwards by merely using your finger tips. When the
notch is in the inward position (towards the center of the dial), the heater will operate during that
15 minute period. If the notch is in the outward position, the heater will not operate during this
period. If you want to bypass the timer, all notches must be pushed inward.
Clock setting
The program/timer, as with all clocks, must be set to the correct time. If for example the time is
9.30 a.m. (day zone), rotate the dial clockwise (following the direction of the arrow) until 9.30 is
aligned with the triangular pointer.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT ROTATE CLOCK DIAL COUNTER-CLOCKWISE.
The timer is in effect an electric clock and would only work while it is plugged into a power supply.
When unplugged, the timer stops and must be later re-set.
Timer operation
a). Plug in the heater.
b). Turn timer dial clockwise to set clock with the current time of day (see above “Clock setting”).
c). Push notches inwards for the period you want the heater to operate. For example, in the
shown illustration, the heater will operate from 14.00 (2 p.m.) to 16.30 (4.30 p.m.) and from
4.45 a.m. to 5 a.m.
d). Once you have set the notches for the desired heating periods, your heater will cycle on and
off according to these settings.
e). As long as you keep the heater plugged in, the timer will continue to keep proper time.
IMPORTANT: never for any reason cover the appliance during operation as this could lead to
dangerous overheating.
