heat outlet was restricted in any way or if the chimney flue has not been blocked off effectively. If the cut-out operates,
unplug the heater from the socket outlet and allow approximately 10 minutes before reconnecting. Before switching the
heater back on remove any obstruction that may be restricting the heat outlet, then continue normal operation.
