1. Operating instructions

1.1 Switching on the Unit

The unit may be switched on (setting I) or off (setting O) by using the switch (1) on the right hand side
panel.

1.2 Heater

Turning the temperature selector (2) to the left will turn on
the heater and select the required temperature. Once turned
on, the heater will warm the room uniformly and quickly.
Air enters the heater from below where it is heated and then
exits through the grid at the top of the heater. The room
temperature can be infinitely set between approx. 6 °C and
30 °C. The thermostat switches the heater off once the set
temperature has been reached and switches on and off
intermittently to maintain the required temperature.
If uniform temperature is required in two rooms, do not set
both heaters to the same setting. The same applies to two heaters installed in the same room.
In order to minimize energy usage when airing the room by opening the windows, it is advisable to switch
off the unit.

1.2.1 Anti-frost setting

Set the temperature selector (2) to
The thermostat will switch the heater on automatically if the room temperature drops below approx. +6 °C.
Ensure the correct heater is fitted to cope with the demands to be made upon it.

1.2.2 Limiting the temperature range

In order to lock the selector at a specific temperature, remove
the two pins (3) from the rear of the housing and insert either
side of the desired setting. The two pins may also be used to
limit a temperature range.

1.3 Safety notes

The appliance must not be operated:
– In areas which are subject to the risk of fire or explosion
due to chemicals, dust, gases or vapours;
– In the immediate vicinity of pipes or containers which
carry or contain combustible or potentially explosive
substances.
For this reason, the minimum clearance intervals must not be undercut.
In workshops or other areas in which the odour of waste gases, oil, petrol, etc. might occur, or in
which work is carried out involving solvents and chemicals, there is a risk of sustained odour burdens
being engendered, and possibly of dirt contamination occurring.
The air outlet must not be obstructed. For safety reasons the
upper and lower air grilles must never be covered with items
such as washing nor obstructed by items in too close
proximity (see figure 3). Objects should not be leant against
the unit nor placed between the unit and the wall. Never
leave combustible materials, such as wood, paper, textiles or
flammable items such as wax, petrol, aerosol cans etc. in the
vicinty of the warm air outlet.
As with all similar heaters, the flow of rising air may cause
discoloration of the wall.
Before using any materials which produce flammable gases or vapours, e. g. laying or sealing parquet
or PVC flooring, or when using spray polishes, spirits and similar materials, ensure the heater is
switched off.

1.4 Servicing

Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleansers to clean the heater.
Use a vacuum cleaner regularly to clean the upper and lower air grids.
