Electrical connection
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
The use of an extension lead or multi-plug adaptor is
not advised when connecting this product to the mains.
Connection through these devices could lead to risk of
overloading, overheating and even fire at the extension lead
or adaptor due to inadequate connection quality
This heater must be used on an AC (~) supply only and
the voltage marked on the heater must correspond to the
supply voltage. This heater is fitted with a rewirable plug
incorporating a 10/13 amp fuse. In the event of replacing
the fuse in the plug supplied, an equivalent 10/13 amp fuse
approved by ASTA to BS 1362 must be used. If any other
type of plug is used, a 15 amp fuse must be fitted in the plug,
the adaptor, or at the distribution board.
IMPORTANT: If the plug is not suitable for your socket,
the 13 amp plug should be removed. Before wiring the
appropriate plug, please note that the wires in this mains
lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
GREEN AND YELLOW:
BLUE :
BROWN :
Connect the GREEN AND YELLOW wire to the terminal
marked 'E' or by the earth symbol
or GREEN AND YELLOW.
Connect the BROWN wire to the terminal marked 'L' or
coloured RED.
Connect the BLUE wire to the terminal marked 'N' or
coloured BLACK.
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).
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.
Controls
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 - see Fig. 3 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.
