Dimplex EF 12/20 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual page 5

5. Heating operation
All Models
The room temperature is
regulated using the adjustable
thermostat (A). If the rotary
knob is set to the lowest setting
i.e. to the extreme left (see
figure), the thermostat switches
the heater on at an ambient
temperature of approx. 5°C.
Note!
Rooms can become overheated if left unattended whilst being
heated; this depends on the size of the room, its heating
requirements and the setting of the thermostat. Persons who
are not able to vacate the room if the temperature becomes too
high can thus be placed in danger.
EF 12/20 TI - Models with 60-minute timer
Turn the timer knob (B) in a clockwise direction. Set the desired
time period (up to 60 minutes).
During the time set, the device
runs at its full output of 2000 W.
When the set time has expired,
the device switches to a lower
(1000 W) heating level. Both
levels are controlled by the
thermostat.
The set time can be changed or
reversed at any time using the
timer knob (B).
EF 12/20 TID - Models with 24-hour timer
The operating hours of the heater can be set in a day program
(24 hours) using the timer.
For automatic operation, slide the switch (C) to the right into
"clock" position.
Setting the time:
Turn timer (D) clockwise until the marking matches up to the
current time.
Heater ON Slide segments outwards.
Heater OFF: Slide segments inwards.
Each segment represenets a switch-on or switch-off time of 20
minutes. In order, for example, to set a switch-on time of one
hour, 3 segments are slid outwards.
The timer can be programmed
for several ON/OFF phases of
different lengths. The
thermostat provides a uniform
room temperature during the
switch-on time.
Outside of the switching time, no
heating operation - and thus no
frost protection - takes place.
Operation via the timer can be deactivated at any time by
switching to "Manual" or "0" (OFF).
The timer only runs when the device is connected to the power
supply.

6. Protection Against Overheating
If the permissible temperature is exceeded, the heater
switches off automatically. If this occurs, pull the mains plug out
and leave the device unplugged for a few minutes, so that the
temperature limiter can switch back again.
Then remove the cause, e.g. when the air grid is blocked or
covered. When the device has cooled sufficiently, it can be
started up again.
7. Faults
If the heater does not give off heat, check the following points:
• Has the thermostat been set to the desired temperature?
• Has the overheat protection been triggered? See chapter 6!
• Is the fuse in the fuse box switched on?
• EF 12/20 TID: Set the slide switch and segments correctly -
see Chapter 5 "Heating Operation EF 12/20 TID".
If the fault cannot be corrected, please contact a specialist
electrical service center or else your nearest after-sales
service.
To process your order, please state the production number (E
No.) and manufacturing date (FD) of the device. This
information is listed on the type plate.
The device must only be repaired or manipulated by a skilled
electrician or the after-sales service.
