Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
Sunbeam are very safety conscious when
designing and manufacturing consumer products, but it is essential that the product user also exercise care when using an electrical appliance. Listed below are precautions which are essential for the safe use of an electrical appliance:
•  Read carefully and save all the instructions  provided with an appliance.
•  Always turn the power off at the power outlet  before you insert or remove a plug. Remove  by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.
•  Turn the power off and remove the plug  when the appliance is not in use and  before cleaning.
•  Do not use your appliance with an extension cord  unless this cord has been checked  and tested by a qualified technician or  service person.
•  Always use your appliance from a power  outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked  on the appliance.
•  Close supervision is necessary when your  appliance is being used near children or  infirm persons.
•  Never leave an appliance unattended while  in use.
•  Young children should be supervised to ensure 
that they do not play with the appliance.
•  Do not use an appliance for any purpose  other than its intended use.
•  Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas  flame, electric element or on a heated oven. Do  not place on top of any other appliance.
•  Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang  over the edge of a table or bench top or touch  any hot surface.
•  For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance  by unskilled persons, some appliances are ‘sealed’  using tamperproof screws. Such appliances  should always be returned to the nearest  Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre  for adjustment or repair if required.
•  Do not operate any electrical appliance with a  damaged cord or after the appliance has been  dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage  is suspected, return the appliance to the nearest  Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre  for examination, repair or adjustment. 
•  For additional protection, Sunbeam recommend  the use of a residual current device (RCD) with  a tripping current not exceeding 30mA in  the electrical circuit supplying power to your  appliances.
•  Do not immerse the appliance in water  or any other liquid unless recommended.
  If you have any concerns regarding the performance and use of your appliance, 
please visit www.sunbeam.com.au or contact the Sunbeam Consumer Service Line. 
  Ensure the above safety precautions are understood.

Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
•  This heater becomes hot during use. To avoid  burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If  provided, use handles when moving this heater.  Keep combustible materials such as furniture,  pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains  at least 3 feet (90cm) away from the front of the  heater and keep them away from the sides and  rear.
•  Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is  used by or near children or invalids and whenever  the heater is left unattended.
•  Always unplug the heater when not in use.
•  Do not use outdoors.
•  Do not run the cord of the heater under  carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs,  runners or other floor coverings. Arrange the  cord away from traffic areas where it will not be  tripped over.
•  Do not locate the heater immediately below a  socket outlet.
•  Do not use this heater in the immediate  surrounds of a bath, shower, laundry area or  swimming pool.
•  Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any  ventilation or exhaust openings as this may cause  electric shock or fire, or damage to the heater.
•  To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes  or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft  surfaces, such as beds, where opening may  become blocked.
•  A heater has hot and arcing or sparing parts  inside. Do not use it in areas where petrol, paint  or flammable liquids are used or stored.
•  In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the  heater.

Sunbeam’s Total Safety System
Safety auto shut off
  Your Sunbeam Twinheat Ceramic Heater is 
equipped with a safety system that detects  any abnormally high temperatures within  the heater and automatically shuts it off to  prevent overheating. 
Thermal back-up fuse
  In addition to this automatic cut-off, your 
heater contains a thermal back-up fuse to  provide additional back-up protection. If  the heater is in an overheat situation, the  back-up fuse will open, stopping the power  flow to the heating element and fan. This  fuse cannot be reset, so in the event that  the back-up fuse is activated, the heater  will need to be replaced.

Features of your Oscillating Twinheat Ceramic Heater
Power ON light
Illuminates to indicate that the heater  is connected to the power outlet and  is switched on.
Ceramic element
The 2400 watt ceramic element is more efficient than  other element types as it converts more electricity into  heat that is transferred into the room. 
It also self-regulates the energy flow depending on the  temperature for added safety. If the ceramic gets too hot,  electricity cannot pass through it.
Ceramic elements are safer than other element types,  as they operate at temperatures below the ignition  temperature of highly flammable materials like tissue  paper.
Oscillation function
The heater oscillates 70 degrees to provide greater  heat distribution. Simply press the OSC button  (OSC) to activate this function.
Two heat settings
Two heat settings allow you to adjust the heat and  airflow of the heater. When using the thermostat, select  setting 2 to reach the desired heat level more quickly.
Fan setting
Ideal for circulating cool air in summer, the fan setting  operates the fan without heat.

Mode selector dial
The mode selector dial operates the  heater. Select heat setting 1 or 2,  or fan.
Thermostat dial
The adjustable thermostat allows you  to select the desired heat level, and  automatically switches the heater  on and off to maintain the desired  temperature.
Twin housing
The revolutionary vertical twin housing has  a 90 degree swivel on separate elements to  provide wider heat distribution.

Using your heater
HE2300 Oscillating Twinheat Ceramic Heater
1. Place the heater on a flat level surface and  ensure that the air intake and outlet are  clear of obstructions.
2. Insert the plug into a 230/240V power  outlet and turn the power on.
3. Turn the thermostat dial to the highest  setting by rotating the dial clockwise as far  as it will turn.
4. Turn the mode dial to the desired heat  setting, I or II.
5. To use the fan without heat, set the  thermostat dial to the lowest setting and  select the fan setting on the mode selector  dial.
Setting the thermostat
1. Set the thermostat to the highest setting by  turning the dial clockwise as far as it will  turn.
2. When the room has reached the desired  temperature level, lower the thermostat  setting by turning the thermostat dial anti­clockwise until it clicks. The heater will  stop operating.
3. The thermostat is now set and will  automatically maintain the pre-set  temperature level by switching between the  high (II) and low (I) settings. 
Note: When set to the high setting it is 
normal for the heater to cycle between  high and low as it maintains the preset  temperature. The heat output does not  vary when the heater is set to the low  heat setting (I). To prevent the unit from  cycling, raise the thermostat setting.
Adjusting the swivel housing
The revolutionary vertical twin housing allows  heat to travel in two different directions for  maximum heat distribution.
Carefully rotate each housing to direct the  airflow in the desired direction. Do not swivel  the unit beyond the point of resistance.
Using the Oscillation Function
The 70 degree oscillation function can be  used on any setting.
1. Press the oscillation button (OSC),  positioned on the top of the heater. The heater will begin to oscillate from side to side.
2. To stop the heater from oscillating, simply press the (OSC) button once again.

Troubleshooting guide
Troubleshooting guide
  If your heater fails to operate check the 
following:
•  Make sure the electrical outlet or circuit  breaker is working.
•  Check for obstructions. If you find an  obstruction, turn the heater off and follow  the reset instructions above.
•  Check that the thermostat is not set too  low. Turn the thermostat dial clockwise 
Care and cleaning
  Ensure that the heater is switched off and 
disconnected from the power outlet before  cleaning.
  Carefully wipe the exterior of the heater 
with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly  with a dry cloth. 
  Over time, dust may accumulate on the 
front grilles. This can be removed by  wiping with a damp cloth.
  Store the heater in a cool dry place when 
not in use. Store the heater in its carton if  possible.
