OIL FILLED RADIATOR
Instructions for use
This product is only suitable for well-insulated spaces or occasional use

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut-off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert it in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a shock hazard. With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse. If the plug is a molded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta- approved fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your nearest electrical dealer. The color of the correct replacement fuse cover is marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the instructions provided below:

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

USE

Fitting the wheels
Turn the radiator upside down on a rug or soft surface to prevent damaging the paint finish. Fully unfold the wheels by turning them outwards (Fig. 1). Turn the radiator back to its upright position.

Caution
Always operate the heater in the upright position only (wheels on the bottom, controls on top). Any other position could create a hazardous situation.
Location
The heater should not be placed immediately below a power outlet. Do not use this radiator in rooms with a floor area of fewer than 4 m2 (43 sq. ft. ).

Connection
– Before using the appliance check that your supply voltage is the same of that shown on the rating label of the unit and that the power socket and power supply line correspond
to the load specified.
– Check also the current capacity of your fuses. CONNECT YOUR HEATER TO EARTH PROVIDED SOCKET ONLY.

Turning on
Insert the plug into an electrical outlet, rotate the thermostat knob (A) to maximum and turn the unit on as follows using the power selector:
– Turn the power selector dial (B) to the position to retain the time set only.
– Turn the power selector to position MIN to select minimum output (the min light will be on).
– Turn the power selector to position MED to select medium output (the min/med light will be on).
– Turn the power selector to position MAX to select maximum output (the lights will be on).

Adjusting the thermostat
When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob slowly in an anti-clockwise direction until you hear a “click” and not beyond it. The thermostat will then adjust the set temperature automatically and keep it constant. If your unit is a three-power version, in intermediate seasons or on days when temperatures are not particularly cold, select minimum output to optimize savings and consumption.
Antifreeze function
Turn the thermostat dial to the position and the power selector to position MAX. The appliance will maintain a minimum room temperature of approximately 5°C, thus preventing freezing while conserving energy. In models that come with a timer, teeth must be set in the inward position.

Reminder
To completely shut the appliance off, turn the power selector to the “0” position and then unplug the appliance from the outlet.

HOW TO USE THE TIMER

To program heating, proceed as follows:
– Look at the time on your clock or watch. If it is 10 p.m., turn the numbered timer disk clockwise until the number 22 (10 p.m.) on the disk coincides with the pointers on the timer. Set the periods of time when you want the appliance to work by pushing the teeth inward. Each tooth corresponds to a period of 15 minutes. This will leave visible sectors which correspond to the periods of operation. When set, the radiator will operate automatically each day during the times programmed (important: the radiator must always be plugged into the socket).
– To change the programming, move the teeth and set the new periods of operation.
– To turn the appliance off, turn the power selector to “0”. In this position, the time will not be retained. If on the other hand, you want to retain the time set, turn the power selector (B) to the position.

Important! DO NOT ROTATE THE CLOCK DIAL COUNTER-CLOCKWISE .
The timer is like an electric clock, and will only work when plugged into a power supply.

Timer override
If you wish to override the timer settings, push the timer switch to position I (fig.2) manual (timer override). To return to timed operation push the switch back to the middle position (fig.2).

NOTE: if the timer switch is at the 0 positions (fig. 2), the heater is off and will not operate).
