Models with 24 hour timer (T - fig. 3)
To programme the timer;
- Check the time on your watch. If for example it is 10am, turn the number disc of the timer in a clockwise
direction until the number 10 on the disc lines up with the arrow head marker.
The timer is normally supplied with all the teeth pushed into the centre allowing continuous operation. To
set the periods of time you would like the appliance to be off continue as follows;
- Each tooth corresponds to a period of 15 minutes of time. Push the teeth with your thumbnail to the outer
rim of the timer. At this point, the sectors that correspond to the periods to be on and off will be visible.
- The heater will now function automatically everyday, switching on and off according to your selection.
(Important; the plug must always be inserted into the electrical socket)
- To vary the programming times, simply return the teeth to their original position and set new periods of
functioning.
- If you desire to operate the heater without programming it, push all the teeth toward the centre (i.e. in the
mode as normally supplied)
- To completely turn off the heater turn of all the switches and remove the plug from the socket.
Models with "Tilt-switch"
- Some models are fitted with a tilt-switch which turns the appliance off if it should fall over. To restart the
appliance, simply place it upright again.
(Check on the rating plate if "...ex:1" is written after the type to verify if your appliance is provided with
the tilt-switch)
