Operation

Before the first Use
Unpack the convector heater and check the unit for any damage in transit. Dispose of packaging materials or store it out of reach of children. Plastic bags etc. may become a deadly toy for children. Before first use, clean the housing as described in chapter “Cleaning”.

Assembling
For transport protection, the stand supports (3) of the convector heater are not attached.
Fasten the stand supports on the base plate. Use the small screws included in the package. The unit has to be placed on a firm, level ground.

Operation
The heater is equipped with a turn knob (4) with which you can set the heater to two power settings either with or without the ventilator.
To activate the heater with the ventilator select the temperature settings with a ventilator symbol next to it.

Temperature Control/Thermostat

Turn the thermostat switch (5) clockwise to the highest setting. As soon as the desired room temperature has been reached, turn the thermostat switch counter clockwise until you notice a click sound. This way the heater will be switched on and off automatically. The desired room temperature is maintained.
Turn the thermostat switch clockwise in order to reach a higher room temperature. Turn the thermostat switch counter clockwise, in order to decrease heating power. The heater will switch on and off at a lower room temperature.

Overheat Protection

To prevent overheating, the built-in thermal overheating protection switches off the heater. Overheating may occur if the unit is covered while operation, if the convector heater is placed wrongly, the grille inside is dirty or if any objects are obstructing the air flow.

Turn off the heater and pull the power plug. Remove the causes and clean the convector heater.
First, allow the heater to cool down for at least 20 minutes. Then insert the power plug again into a grounded wall socket. The convector heater is ready for use again.

Timer

1. 3-Position Slider
2. Override Position I
3. Clock Symbol
4. OFF Position 0
5. Seconds Hand
6. Direction Arrow
7. Index
8. Outer Ring with 96 Segments

Familiarize yourself with the control elements of the timer.
Set the time switch to the current time. For this, turn the outer dial ring clockwise (see rotating arrow) until the clock time on the 24 h plan matches the arrow pointer. The outer dial ring allows for time settings in 15 minute intervals.
Example: At 8 p.m. turn the outer dial ring until it is in line with the number 20.
Move the red 3-Position-slide switch to the clock symbol. The timer is now activated.
Switch on the convector heater by using the turn knob (4). Set the switch-on and switch off times by moving the segments outwards. Each segment corresponds to a time setting of 15 minutes.
Hint: When all segments are pushed out, the heater will be switched on for 24 hours.
Make sure the unit is plugged in and switched on and the thermostat is set to the desired setting. In this case, the unit will switch on and off every day to the adjusted time.
If the 3-Position-slide switch is pushed to the override position I the convector heater will be in the continuous heating operation mode, so that manual operation is possible, by using the turn knob (4) and the thermostat (5).
Hint: The timer keeps running, but without influence to the manually adjusted settings.

If the 3-Position-slide switch is in the position 0 , all heating functions are switched off.

Cleaning and Storing

Before cleaning, first unplug the unit. Do not pull the cord to unplug from the wall socket but grasp the plug itself to unplug.
