SAFETY FEATURES

The SHX tower heater features two independent protection systems designed to protect the appliance and to minimise the risk of fire.
Please be aware that both mechanisms are not intended to act as an auto-stop or other convenience function. Always switch the appliance off, unplug from the power socket and allow the fan heater to cool before moving, cleaning or putting it in storage.
OVERHEATING PROTECTION
If there is any danger of the appliance overheating (e.g. because something is covering it or due to power supply overload), the built-in overheating protection will switch the appliance off. Once it has cooled, the appliance switches back on automatically and resumes its previous operation.
ATTENTION
A common cause of overheating is among other things the build-up of dust or fluff inside the appliance. You are advised to clean the appliance regularly and to use a vacuum cleaner to remove such build-up.
TIP PROTECTION
There is a special button located on the underside of the appliance which always has contact with the floor as long as the appliance is positioned upright.
Tip protection will activate and switch the appliance off if the appliance is tilted a few degrees from its upright position, the appliance is lifted up, or it is accidentally knocked over.
Once the appliance is positioned upright again on a solid surface, the appliance switches back on automatically and resumes its previous operation.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Before cleaning the appliance, switch the fan heater off, unplug from the power socket and wait until the appliance has cooled completely.
CLEANING
Clean the appliance with a soft, moderately damp cloth, then wipe with a dry cloth.
AIR FILTER
The air filter is located on the back of the appliance – we recommend cleaning it after every week of operation.
Press the tab down to do this and remove the cover grille. Then remove the filter to clean it. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust accumulated in the filter and the cover grille. If the filter is very dirty, you can immerse it in warm water and rinse it several times.
Before putting the filter back in the appliance, allow it to dry out well after washing.

ATTENTION

• Do not immerse the fan heater in water or other liquids or allow it to come into contact with these.
• Never use benzene, alcohol or solvents to clean the appliance – this could be dangerous.
• Do not spray insecticides or similar agents onto the fan heater.
• Do not use the appliance in wet rooms.
• DO NOT COVER – RISK OF FIRE!
