IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING - THE SURFACE OF THIS RADIATOR CAN BE HOT.
The surface temperatures of this radiator are within the requirements of EN60-335 the European Standard covering the safety
requirements of electric heating appliances, and momentary contact with any part of the radiator should not cause injury.
However, in order to be effective, radiators of any type do get hot, especially around the air outlet grille.
Therefore, if aged or infirm persons, or young children, are likely to be left unsupervised in the vicinity of a radiator
precautions should be taken to ensure that prolonged contact with the radiator cannot occur. We recommend that a
guard is fitted around the radiator, as is normal with some types of heating appliances in similar circumstances. If you require
further information on these guards, please contact Dimplex Customer Services on 0870 7270 101.
• DO NOT COVER THE SURFACES OF THE RADIATOR AND DO NOT OBSTRUCT AIR OUTLET GRILLES Surfaces
of the radiator should not be covered or obstructed as this can cause excessive temperatures that can be hazardous and
may cause safety cut-outs to operate. For example, do not put clothes, fabrics or any combustible materials on the radiator
or allow curtains to come within 75mm (3") of the top and ends of the radiator. Do not allow furniture to be pushed up
against the radiator, a minimum clearance of 150mm is critical for safety, however to ensure radiator performance is not
affected a clearance of 250mm is recommended.
• PLEASE NOTE: THIS RADIATOR IS HEAVY AND MUST BE SECURELY FIXED TO A SOUND WALL. No attempt
should be made to move the radiator without first seeking specialist advice. If you are not happy that the radiator has
been securely fixed, please inform your installer.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE RADIATOR OR LOOSEN WALL FIXINGS
WITHOUT FIRST REMOVING ALL ENERGY RETENTION CELLS FROM THE RADIATOR.
• DO NOT SIT OR STAND ON THE RADIATOR.
• DO NOT SPILL LIQUIDS ONTO THE APPLIANCE. IF YOU DO, SWITCH THE RADIATOR OFF AND GET A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN TO CHECK IT.
• DO NOT POKE OBJECTS THROUGH THE GRILLE.
• DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS IN THE SPACE BEHIND THE RADIATOR.
• DO NOT USE POLISHES ON THE RADIATOR OR ON FURNITURE NEAR TO IT. The hot interior of the radiator can
produce paraffin smells from polish vapours which may last for a number of hours.
• In case of breakdown or other failure, switch off the radiator at both wall switches and contact your supplier or Dimplex Customer
Services. Always ensure that the radiator is switched off at the wall and fuse is removed before any repair is carried out.
• IMPORTANT - Due to the newness of the materials the radiator will produce a slight smell for the first few days of
operation. ROOMS MUST BE WELL VENTILATED AND YOUNG CHILDREN, CAGED BIRDS OR PERSONS WITH
RESPIRATORY COMPLAINTS MUST NOT REMAIN IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE RADIATOR DURING THE FIRST
48 HOURS OF THE COMMISSIONING PERIOD. Running the radiator at maximum temperature for the first few days will
help to dispel any smells more quickly.
