4. USE OF THERMOSTAT
The thermostat operates on room air temperature and not radiator temperature. Counter clockwise
direction - lower number, lower temperature. Clockwise direction- higher number, higher tempera-
ture.
Antifreeze function
Turn the thermostat to the
mum room temperature of approximately 5°C thus preventing freezing with a minimum energy
consumption.
REMINDER
To completely shut unit off, ON/OFF switches must be placed in OFF position.
5. UNITS WITH TIMER
Clock setting
The programme/timer, as in 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 only works while plug is connected to the power supply.
Whenever the plug is disconnected, the timer stops and must be re-set.
Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). There is only one way it can be plugged into a power supply.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try again by tur-
ning it the other way. If it would still not go in, it is probably due to an obsolete outlet which
should be replaced.
Do not temper with the plug or outlet to defeat the purpose of this safety mechanism.
HOW TO USE THE TIMER
Please refer to the illustration below:

IMPORTANT: There are 96 tabs around the dial. Each tab represents a 1/4 hour
(15 minutes) and there is a tab for every quarter hour of the 24 hour day. Your appliance can be
programmed to switch itself ON and OFF at the time you want. With the timer you can approxi-
mate your setting 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 tabs can be pushed inwards or pulled outwards by merely using your fingers. When the tab is
in the inward position (towards the center of the dial), the heater will operate during that 15 minu-
te period. If the tab is in the outward position, the heater will not operate during this period.
Please note when you first use your heater, all the tabs are inwards. You must push in those tabs
for the period that you want the heater to work. (If you want to bypass the timer check that the all
96 tabs inward).
