Assembling your device

Description of Controls

NB Both Switches are shown in the off position

Operating Instructions

Place the heater on a solid, level non-flammable surface.
Ensure that both heat Switches (1 & 2) are in the off position.
Insert the mains plug into the mains socket.
For the low heat setting (750w), press just Switch 1.
For the medium heat setting (1250w), press just Switch (2).
For the high heat setting (2000w), press both switches.
Rotate the thermostat control clockwise to increase the room temperature and anticlockwise to decrease the room temperature as desired.

NB the Indicators in the switches will illuminate on and off to indicate that the set temperature is being maintained.

Return both the heat setting switches (1 & 2) to the off position to switch off the heater.

Hint on setting the correct temperature

Set the heater to the desired heat setting as above.
Rotate the Thermostat to the maximum position and allow the room to warm up. Once the desired room temperature has been reached turn the Thermostat anticlockwise until the heater just clicks off then turn it back up clockwise very slightly. The Thermostat will now maintain the room temperature, if necessary, further increasing or decreasing the thermostat control may be required to 'fine tune' the ideal room temperature.
Return both the heat setting switches (1 & 2) to the off position (as below) to switch off the heater.
