Components

Assembly

Before using this appliance, it must have the castor plates and castors fitted. The screw pack to attach the feet to your appliance will be taped to either one of the feet for your appliance, or taped to the plug.

Carefully turn the Main Body upside-down on a scratch-free and stable surface. Be careful to prevent damage to the cosmetic finish or your floor surfacing (Fig.1).
Fit the wheel assemblies onto the Main Body by placing the U-shaped bolts between the outermost fins on each side of the Main Body (see Fig.2 – 4). Securely fasten the wheel assemblies onto the Main Body by screwing the wing nuts onto the U-shaped bolts (see Fig. 5).

WARNING: Operate the appliance in normal upright position only with wheel assemblies attached to the bottom. Any other position could create a hazardous situation.

Operating Your Heater

Always choose a safe location for the heater, keeping in mind the safety precautions outlined. Ensure all packaging has been removed from the unit before use.
Please follow the below instructions.

WARNING:

• In order to avoid overheating or fire, do not cover the heater.
• Keep all objects at least 1 metre from the front, sides and rear of the appliance.
• Do not use this heater with a programmer, separate timer, remote-control system or any other device that switches the heater on automatically, since a fire risk exists if the heater is covered or positioned incorrectly.
• Never leave this heater unattended when in use.
  Ensure heater is on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
  Once the heater is in a safe operating position and all switches are in the off position, insert the power plug into the mains outlet and switch on.

CAUTION: Ensure the power cord is not tight because if pulled it may partially pull the plug from the socket. A partially inserted plug will overheat the plug and socket and could result in fire.

HEATER CONTROL SWITCH

The control switch positions are:

Off

Minimum heating

Medium heating

Maximum heating

Maximum heating + fan heater Fan heater only

THERMOSTATIC CONTROL

1. Rotate thermostat knob clockwise until you reach the maximum position.
2. When the room reaches a temperature that is comfortable for you, slowly turn the knob anti-clockwise until the heater just turns off (you will hear a click).
3. The heater will now cycle on and off to maintain the comfort level you have set.
4. Take note of this setting position for future use.

TIMER
(This function can only be used once a heat level has been selected ; see thermostat section).
You must set the time prior to programming the Timer. To do this; turn the outer dial of the timer in a clockwise direction until the time of the day (24-hour clock) corresponds with the triangular marking. Example if it is 2pm (1400 hours) then set the triangular mark in line with 14. One complete turn of the dial corresponds to 24 hours.
There are 96 “riders”, positioned around the dial, each rider represents 15 minutes. Where all the “riders” are pushed to the outside of the timer the heater will be ON continuously.

To set a specific time for example:
If you want the heater to be on from 9am to 1pm, then set all the riders from 9 to 13 (0900 hours to 1300 hours) to the outside of the rim and all other riders to the inside of the timer. The unit will then turn on automatically at 9am and off again at 1pm.

WARNING: Take care in positioning your heater, using the Timer will mean the heater will come on automatically. Fire may result if placed next to combustible material.

SAFETY DEVICES
This appliance has three protection devices:

• T i lt Switch – this will automatically turn the appliance off if the appliance is not in the correct operating position.
• Resettable Thermal Link – this will automatically disconnect the power to the appliance at a pre-set overheat temperature. After cooling down it will reset and power on again. If this occurs, investigate what is causing the appliance to overheat.
• Thermal Fuse – this disconnects the appliance permanently in case of overheating.(It is non resettable).

CAUTION: The appliance generates heat during use. Precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of burns, scalds, fires or other damage to persons.

CARE AND CLEANING
The heater requires regular cleaning to ensure trouble free operation:

• Unplug the heater from the mains supply before cleaning.
• Ensure that the heater has been allowed to cool down completely before cleaning.
• The common cause of overheating is deposits of dust or fluff in the appliance. Ensure these deposits are removed regularly by unplugging the appliance and vacuum cleaning the air vents and grills.
• Use a damp cloth (not wet) to wipe the exterior of the heater to remove dust and dirt.
• Never use solutions such as petrol, thinners or polishing agents.
