IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Before starting to use the heater, read through all the
instructions and keep this user manual in a safe place for
future reference.
1. Extreme care is essential when the heater is used in the
vicinity of children or frail persons and when the heater is
running without supervision.
2. Do not use the heater outdoors.
3. Only operate the fan heater when it is in an upright
position.
4. Unwind the power cord completely. An incompletely
unwound power cord can lead to overheating and cause a
fire. Do not touch the power cord with wet hands. Make
sure that no objects are resting on the power cord or can
come in contact with hot parts. Position the power cord so
that nobody can trip over it and the power plug is easily
accessible. Do not locate the power cord under carpets,
rugs or similar fittings.
5. Do not use an extension cord, a multi-way connector or
a continuously variable speed controller. This can cause
overheating, fire or electric shock.
6. Connect the heater only to a single-phase power socket
with the current as stated on the type plate of the applian-
ce. The heater has double electric insulation (Class II) and
does not therefore need to be earthed.
7. Always switch the heater off with the thermostat switch
and disconnect the power plug from the socket when the
heater is not in use, or before you move, handle or clean it.
Do not tug at the power cord to pull the plug out. Only
handle the heater with dry hands.
8. Do not use the heater anywhere near easily inflammable
gases or substances such as solvents, lacqueurs, glues,
etc. Some of the parts inside the heater are hot and could
melt or throw sparks.
9. Do not position the heater immediately below a power
socket.
10. Do not use the heater in the immediate surroundings
of a bath, a shower or a swimming pool. Do not locate the
heater where it could fall into a bathtub or other water con-
tainer.
11. Do not use the heater in any kind of vehicle (e.g. por-
tacabins, lifts, caravans, cars, sheds) or similar enclosed
spaces.
12. The use of a heater in small, enclosed spaces requires
particular caution, especially if the heater does not have a
thermostat. We recommend you to control the room tem-
perature frequently.
13. Caution: The heater gets very hot when it running.
Keep burnable materials such as cushions, bedding, furni-
ture, paper, curtains and clothing at least 100cm away
from the heater. To prevent burns, do not allow bare skin
to come in contact with hot surfaces. Use the transport
handle to transport the appliance.
14. Keep the heater clean. Make sure that the air intake and
outlet vents are open before starting to use the heater. Do not
allow any objects to get into the air intake and outlet vents.
15. WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, do not cover
the heater (Symbol on the heater). This can lead to
overheating, fire or electric shock. Do not use the heater
on soft elastic surfaces such as beds, as the air intake and
outlet vents could become blocked.
16. Do not plunge the heater into water or any other
liquids and do not pour water or any other liquids over the
appliance or into the air intake and outlet vents.
17. Clean the heater regularly by following the cleaning
instructions.
18. The heater may only be used according to the instruc-
tions in this user manual. Non-observance of these
instructions could result in injuries, a fire, an electric
shock or faults in the appliance.
19. The appliance is intended only for private use indoors
and not designed for commercial use.
20. If the power cord of the heater is damaged, it must be
replaced by a manufacturer-approved service centre or by
similarly qualified persons, so as to avoid damage.
21. Do not use this heater if it is damaged or shows signs
of damage, if it has fallen over, or does not function pro-
perly. Pull the plug out of the power socket.
22. This heater uses 12.5 Ampere short-term when in ope-
ration. To avoid the electric circuit becoming overloaded,
do not connect the heater with a circuit to which other
appliances are already connected.
23. Although it is normal for the power plug to feel warm
to the touch, a loose connection between power socket
and power plug can cause overheating and faults in the
socket. Contact a qualified electrician to get a loose or
worn out socket replaced.
24. The power output of this heater can vary and the
temperature can get hot enough to burn unprotected skin.
Use of this heater is not recommended for persons with
reduced sensitivity to heat or capacity of reaction, so that
burns may be avoided.
