1. Before connecting your appliance to the mains socket,
position the appliance upright on the floor, at least 90cm
away from the wall, away from curtains, furniture or wall
coverings.
2. Insert the mains plug into a suitable 13 amp mains socket.
3. Turn the Power Control to the ‘I’, ‘II’ or ‘III’ position. The
appliance has 3 power settings.
Power Control Position RHOFR5001 RHOFR5002
OFF Power OFF Off Off
I Low heat ON 600W 800W
II Medium heat ON 900W 1.2kW
III High heat ON 1.5kW 2.0kW
4. Turn the Thermostat Control to the desired position. It is
recommended to select the highest position to pre heat
the appliance. It will take 5 -10 minutes for the appliance
to fully heat up, the time taken for the heater to heat the
room it is located in will be dependent on the size of the
room and the ambient temperature of the room. The
indicator light will illuminate when the unit is working, but
the light will cycle on and off when the thermostat control
is set on a low setting and the heater is then maintaining
the room temperature.
Note: this appliance will not operate if the thermostat has
been set too low.
Note: If the thermostat dial is set toward the maximum setting
and the power control is set to off then the indicator light will
stay illuminated. No heat will be emitted as the power to the
heating elements is off.

USING YOUR OIL FILLED RADIATOR
Page 10
Note: this appliance will not operate if is not placed on a
stable surface.
5. When the room reaches the desired temperature, the
radiator will cycle off and turn on again when the
temperature drops.
6. If the room temperature falls below the desired
temperature, the heating elements will turn on again until
the room temperature reaches the desired temperature.
Note: this radiator is oil filled, and will cool down slowly after
the power is shut off. Allow the radiator heater to cool prior to
any movement, the built in carry handle should be used for
easy movement.
Safety Protective Devices - The appliance is fitted with an over
heat and tip over protection system.
1. Overheat protection - the power to the heating elements
will automatically cut off if the temperature of the heating
elements exceeds a certain limit. In the event of
overheating, the heater will stop operating. Once the
appliance has completely cooled the appliance will then
resume operating as normal.
2. Tip Over Switch - The unit needs to be placed on a flat,
firm and stable surface to ensure that the appliance
contacts the floor firmly and internal tip over switch is
level. If in the event that the unit tips over or is placed on
an uneven or super very surface the appliance will not
operate.
