Safety features

Overheating safeguard
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater
off. If this occurs, immediately turn the mode selector dial to O, unplug and allow
heater to cool down for at least 10 minutes. In theory, the heater can now be used
as normal. There is, however, generally a reason for an appliance overheating. This
may be because the heater cannot adequately release its heat or take in fresh air
(because the heater is covered, the grills are blocked, the heater is placed too near
a wall etcetera). Before using the heater again, therefore, remove or adjust
whatever caused the appliance to overheat. If you cannot find the cause and
overheating recurs, stop using the heater and contact your vendor or a certified
electrician for inspection/repair. Overheating poses a serious fire risk!

Cleaning and Maintenance

Keep the heater clean. Deposits of dust and dirt in the appliance are a common
cause of overheating so these should be removed regularly. Switch off the heater,
remove the plug from the socket and allow the heater to cool down before cleaning
or carrying out maintenance work.
 Wipe the outside of the heater regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not
use aggressive soaps, sprays, cleaners or abrasives, waxes, polishes or chemical
solutions!
 Use a vacuum cleaner or compressor to carefully remove any dust and dirt from
the grills and ensure that the air intake and outlet openings are clean. Be careful
not to touch or damage any internal parts during cleaning!
 The heater contains no other parts which need maintenance.
 At the end of the season, store the cleaned heater in the original packaging if
possible. Store upright in a cool, dry and dust-free place.
