WARNING: do not use the fan heater with a controller or any other external device that activates the appliance automatically, as there may be a risk of fire if the fan heater is covered or incorrectly positioned.

• Disconnect the mains power when the appliance is not used or for cleaning operations.

• To disconnect the convector, set the selector to 0 and remove the plug from the socket. Pull on the plug only. Do not pull the cord.

• Avoid placing fingers or foreign objects in the air inlet/outlet grilles, as this may lead to electric shock or fire and may damage the convector. To avoid the risk of fire, do not block the grilles or tamper with them in any way while the  convector operates.

• Do not use the convector if the cord or plug is damaged. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, dealer or a similarly qualified person so as to avoid any safety risks.

• Do not place any objects on the cord and do not bend it. During operation, the cord must be entirely unwound.

• It is not advisable to use extension cords, as these may overheat and cause the risk of fire. Do not use a single extension cord to operate more than one convector.

• The convector heats up significantly during operation. Risk of burn. To avoid injury, do not allow skin to come into contact with a hot surface. Use the handle to move the convector. Keep flammable materials, such as furniture,  cushions, blankets, paper, cloths, curtains and suchlike at least 1 m from the front and back

  The symbol below signals the above warning:

• The convector may cause risk of fire if, while in operation, is covered by or comes into contact with flammable material including curtains, drapery, blankets, etc. KEEP THE CONVECTOR AWAY FROM THESE MATERIALS.

• Do not insert and avoid accidental insertion of any external objects into the ventilation or discharge outlets as this may lead to electric shock, fire or damage the convector.

• A convector contains parts that generate arcs or sparks. It must not be used in potentially dangerous areas such as areas at risk of fire or explosion, or areas loaded with chemical substances or humidity.

• Do not use the convector on soft surfaces such as beds, where the grilles may be covered. Always stand the convector on a flat, stable surface when in operation, in order to prevent it from overturning. Arrange the cord in such a way  that the convector and other objects do not rest on it. Do not run the cord under carpets. Do not cover the cord with blankets, carpets or similar materials. Place the cord far away from busy areas, or in a place where it cannot be  accidentally pulled-out.

• This convector cannot be used in bathrooms, laundry rooms, next to a shower, bathtub or swimming pool or in similar indoor environments. Never position the convector where it may fall into a bath or other containers of water.

HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE FEET SUPPLIED

The convector is packed without feet. These must therefore be assembled before using the appliance.
To fix the feet supplied to the convector base, use the 4 screws provided with the unit, taking care to ensure that they are located correctly in the bottom ends of the heater side.

HOW TO USE THE CONVECTOR

Choose a suitable place to position the convector, considering the general safety warnings given in the first part of this manual. Only use this convector in an upright position.
Insert the plug into the electrical socket, ensuring that voltage is compliant with that specified on the convector data plate.

Select the desired temperature using the thermostat, turning this knob clockwise: -. corresponds to minimum temperature and +. to maximum level. The convector will start operating only if the thermostat is above the minimum temperature.

Thermostat
– = (minimum temperature)
+ = (maximum temperature)

Then choose the power level desired through the mode selector.

Mode selector

Room temperature can be regulated by rotating the thermostat clockwise to increase or anticlockwise to decrease temperature.
When turning the panel on, we recommend turning the thermostat knob to maximum: then, when a pleasant room temperature has been obtained, turn the thermostat dial anticlockwise until the light of the active switch goes out. This way the panel will maintain that room temperature constant.
Only for HI FLOOR DESIGN PLUS, please check the timer switch state: if it is on , the convector can’t start operating; if it is on the starting time depends on timer setting. If it is on I, the convector can be activated through thermostat  and power level selection.
To turn the convector off completely turn the mode selector back to 0 and then rotate the thermostat dial anticlockwise until it clicks off. Unplug the appliance if it will not be used for a while.

OPERATING TIMER (HI FLOOR DESIGN PLUS model)

The model HI FAN DESIGN PLUS is also equipped with 24 hours timer, which has 96 segments, each of which corresponds to 15 minutes of time and allows the lighting and working programming of during the 24 hours.

OVERHEATING SAFETY DEVICE

In the event of overheating, an additional fitted safety thermostat protects the heater against overheating and switches it off automatically.
If the device switches itself off, disconnect the main plug from the socket.
The heater is ready for use after a short cooling-off phase (approx. 15 minutes). Plug the mains back into the socket.
If this repeats, first check that the thermostat switch is set correctly or if an object hinders the heating operation.

HOW TO CLEAN THE CONVECTOR

• Always unplug and leave the convector to cool before cleaning.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the convector exterior and remove dust. Leave the casing to dry before using the convector again.
• Do not allow water to enter the convector.
• Do not use benzene, solvents or abrasive compounds to clean the convector, as these may damage the casing.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the air inlet/outlet grilles.
• Ensure that the convector is dry before inserting the plug.
• Do not use metal tools to clean the convector. Any metal fragments that may detach may come into contact with the panel’s electrical components and cause a short-circuit.
• In the event of malfunctions or damages, always contact an authorised service centre.

STORING THE CONVECTOR

If the convector is not used for prolonged periods, it must be stored together with this manual in its original packaging, in a cool and dry place. Never put the appliance away when still hot. Always wait for it to cool down.
