IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE
When using electrical heaters, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
IMPORTANT – The wall bracket supplied with the heater must be used.
IMPORTANT – All packaging should be disposed of in an appropriate manner.
OVERHEATING WARNING
WARNING - In order to avoid overheating, do not cover or obstruct the heater. Do not place material
or garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation around the heater, for instance by curtains
or furniture, as this could cause overheating and a fire risk. NEVER cover or obstruct in any way the
heat outlet slots at the top of the heater or the air inlet slots in the base of the heater.
WARNING - THE SURFACES ON THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT. The heater carries a warning
'DO NOT COVER' to alert the user to the risk of fire that exists if the heater is accidentally
covered.
CAUTION - Some parts of this product can become very hot and cause burns. Particular
attention has to be given where children and vulnerable people are present.
For your safety this heater is fitted with a thermal cut-out. In the event that the product
overheats for some reason, the cut-out prevents excessive temperatures on the product by
cutting the power to the heater. Once the heater has cooled down, it will reset automatically,
it will continue to cycle on and off automatically until the reason for overheating is removed.
The display screen may flash red to indicate the product has overheated. To reset the display,
remove the obstruction and hold Enter for 10 seconds.
SUITABLE APPLICATIONS
WARNING - This heater is suitable for normal domestic household purposes and should not
be used in any other type of environment. This product should only be used in the country
where it was purchased from by a recognised commercial retailer. Do not use outdoors.
SERVICING AND REPAIRS
WARNING - Servicing and product repairs should only be undertaken by the manufacturers
approved service agent or a similarly trained or qualified person, using only exact manufacturer
approved spare parts.
PLEASE NOTE: Household dust, lit cigarettes, candles and oil burners, combined with the
convection effect of electric heaters can cause significant soot deposits to build up on the
surface directly above and to the sides of the heater. This is not a fault of the heater. Extensive
burning of candles or smoking in the operating environment of this product can produce heavy
discolouration within a few months of use.
OPERATING WARNINGS
IMPORTANT: Remember to observe all safety warnings and precautions when operating the
heater on the automatic or timer modes, either attended or unattended since a fire risk exists
when the heater is accidentally covered or displaced.
CAUTION: Do not use if the heater's mains power lead is damaged. If the supply cord is
damaged it must be replaced by the installer or an approved Dimplex service partner.
