Using the heater
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE HEATER UNTIL THE FEET ARE
FITTED CORRECTLY.
The product is intended for occasional use as a portable unit. Please ensure
the feet are securely fitted before the product is used. Once the feet have
been installed simply plug in and switch on at the wall socket.
Please note – the element has been coated with a protective film which
will burn off during the first few minutes of use and may cause a small
amount of fuming. This is quite normal – the fumes are non-toxic and will
quickly disappear.
We recommend that you open a window to ventilate the room when using
the heater for the first time.
Positioning the heater
Always ensure that the heater is stood on a firm, level base near to, but
not directly beneath, a suitable mains supply socket.
Ensure that curtains and furniture are not positioned close to the chosen
position, as this would create a potential fire hazard.
Product Assembly
WARNING: THE HEATER SHOULD NEVER BE USED WITHOUT THE
FEET SECURELY FITTED.
Lay the heater on its back so the underneath of the product is accessible.
Locate and remove the foot fixing screw - see Fig. 2(a). Clip the foot in
place and secure using the foot fixing screw - see Fig. 2(b).
Controls
Indicator Neon (selected models)
The indicator neon comes on when the appliance is connected to mains
supply.
Thermostat (all models)
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the room temperature.
This ensures that the heater will not produce heat unnecessarily when the
room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, Gradually turn the thermostat knob
clockwise until the desired temperature is reached. Allow some time between
increments for the room temperature to stabilise.
Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat knob to the
Max position. When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn
the thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat clicks off. The heater
will then automatically maintain this room temperature.
The thermostat also has a frost protection setting marked ' '. This setting is
useful in areas such as garages to prevent frost damage. If the thermostat is
set to its minimum setting ' ', the heater will cycle ON and OFF to maintain
a temperature of approximately 5°C to help protect against frosty conditions.
Switches (selected models)
Selected models are supplied with selector switches . There are two switch
types, one is an on/off switch and the other is a heat selection switch.
