Once the desired temperature is reached, turn the thermostat dial back slowly until you hear a click. The
temperature is now set. The heater will automatically switch on and off to maintain the set temperature. To set a
higher or lower temperature, turn the thermostat dial either clockwise or anticlockwise.
To switch the heater off, set the control switch to '0' (off). Unplug.
Safety features
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater off. This may occur if the heater
cannot give off enough heat or if it cannot draw in enough fresh air. As mentioned above, this is generally caused by
(partially) covering the heater, obstructing the air intake and/or outlet grills or installing the heater too close to a
wall or something similar. When the overheating safeguard switches the heater off, set the mode selector dial to
'0' (off), unplug and allow the heater to cool down. Remove and/or amend the cause of overheating and reuse the
heater as normal. If you cannot find a cause and overheating recurs, stop using the heater, and take it in for inspection/
repair.
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!
Using a vacuum cleaner, 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.
Do not dispose of heater with household waste when if becomes worn or damaged beyond repair. Take it to your
local authority's collection point for electrical appliances where any reusable materials will be
collected and redistributed.
