• Remove all packaging from the appliance.
• Unpack all parts and check for damage that may have occurred
during transport. If any parts are damaged or missing, do not
use the appliance and return it to your retail outlet immediately.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE:
• It is normal when heaters are turned on for the first time, or if
they have not been used for some time, to emit some smell and
fumes. This will disappear after a short time (approx. 2 hours).
• It is also normal for the heater to emit small crackling sounds
when you first turn it on.
• This heater is designed for occasional or intermittent use and
should not be left on for prolonged periods of time.
CAUTION:
• The heater must always be placed in an upright position on
a horizontal surface. Never turn the heater upside down when
in use as it could cause irreparable damage.
• The heater does not have a device to control the room
temperature. Do not use the heater in small rooms occupied
by persons incapable of leaving the room on their own, unless
constant supervision is provided.

SETTING UP THE HEATER

1. Make sure the heater is placed upright on a firm, level, heat-
resistant and non-combustible floor surface. Do not place the
heater on a carpet or soft surface that may block the air inlets/
outlets and/or increase the chance of the heater tipping over.
2. Place the appliance at least 3 feet away from any combustible
items, such as furniture, curtains, bedding, clothes, and papers.
3. Do not place the heater next to a shower, bath, swimming pool
or other body of water. Maintain a distance of at least 5 feet to
water. Do not use the heater in wet or humid conditions.
4. Before plugging in the heater, check the main POWER switch
(5) is in the off-position O.
5. Check the heater's rating plate matches the mains socket
voltage. Connect the heater to the mains power supply.
