CONTROLLING THE HEATER

Locating the heater

• Locate the heater on an even and rigid surface at a sufficient distance from the power socket.
• Insert the power plug into a power socket.
• Set the main switch (A6), that is located in the back at the bottom to the I (On) position. The heater will switch to the stand-by mode. In the stand-by mode, the ambient temperature will be shown on the display.
• Press the button to turn on the heater.

Note:
A slight odour may be felt when the heater is first turned on or after an extended period where it has not been used. This will go away after a short while.

Turning off the heater

• When not using the heater, press the button and the heater will turn off. Set the main switch to position “0”. Disconnect the power plug from the power socket.

Note:

When the heater is turned off using the button, the fan will continue to run for approximately 30 seconds in order to cool down the internal components. Then it will turn off.
This is normal. Before disconnecting the power cord from the power socket, wait until the fan stops running.

Fan mode

• When the heater is turned on using the button, it will run in the fan mode. The indicator will light up on the display. Air is not heated in this mode. The flowing current of air will, therefore, be cold and the appliance can be used to cool down the room.

Setting the power level

• The POWER button serves to set the power level. Press the POWER button once to set the low power level. The indicator will light up on the display.
• Press the POWER button again to set the high power level. The indicator will light up on the display.
• Press the POWER level button again to stop heating.

Setting the temperature

• The temperature is set using the +/- buttons. Press them repeatedly to set the temperature in the range from 10 to 35 °C. The set temperature will be shown on the display.
• When the ambient temperature reaches the set temperature, or is higher, the heater will stop heating. The indicator will light up on the display.
• When the ambient temperature fall 2 °C below the set temperature, the heater will automatically start running at half power; when the ambient temperature falls by 4 °C below the set temperature, the heater will automatically start running at full power. The indicator of the set power level will be lit on the display.

Setting the timer

• To set the timer, use the TIMER button. Press it repeatedly to set the time after which the heater will turn off. The indicator will light up on the display. The duration of the timer can be set from 1 to 12 hours. The set time will appear on the display

Swing (oscillation) function

• To turn on the side to side oscillation of the heater, press the SWING button. The indicator will light up on the display. Press the SWING button to turn off the oscillation.

REMOTE CONTROL

Inserting batteries into the remote control

1. Pull the battery holder out of the bottom part of the remote control.
2. Insert a CR2025 (3 V) battery into the holder. Ensure correct polarity. Battery is not provided.
3. Reinsert the holder with the battery into the remote control.

• If you wish to use the remote control, point it at the heater. The maximum signal range is 5 m. If the remote control is positioned in such a way that obstacles prevent the transmission of the signal, then the signal may not be transmitted at all.
  Note:
  When not using the remote control for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the remote control. Neverput the batteries in a fire, short circuit them or damage them in any way. Dispose of them ecologically at the end of theirlifetime. Never throw batteries out with communal waste.

The principle for controlling the heater using the remote control is the same as described in the chapter “Controlling the heater”.

AUTOMATIC SAFETY SHUT-OFF FUNCTION

• The ceramic heater is equipped with a safety mechanism that automatically turns it off when it is tipped over. This safety mechanism serves a safety function and prevents dangerous situations from arising.

OVERHEATING PROTECTION
• In the event that the temperature of the heater is too high due to an inappropriate environment in which it is used or as a result of incorrect use, the power supply to the heater will automatically be shut off and it will stop working. It is recommended to disconnect the power plug from of the power socket and allow it to cool down completely. Then you will be able to use the heater again.

THERMAL PROTECTION

• The ceramic heater is equipped with double thermal protection – a resettable and non-resettable thermal fuse. The resettable thermal fuse will turn the heater off when there is a danger of it overheating or malfunctioning. When the temperature of the heater falls, you will be able to use the heater again.
• The non-resettable thermal fuse is installed for the case, where the resettable thermal fuse fails. In the event of overheating, malfunction or if the heater stops working for any other reason, the non-resettable thermal fuse will completely turn off the heater and it will not be possible to turn it on. In such a case, contact an authorised service centre.
• The most frequent cause of overheating is the accumulation of dust or dirty material on the rear grille and on the the front grille. Regularly remove any dirty material using a vacuum cleaner. Always turn off the heater, disconnect the power plug from the power socket and allow the heater to cool down completely before cleaning it.
• The heater is not equipped with a precision temperature control sensor and, therefore, it cannot be used as an isolation device for storage or keeping animals or flowers.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

• Ensure that the appliance is turned off and that it has cooled down before cleaning it.
• Wipe the appliance using a soft dry cloth. Regularly remove any dirty material from the front and rear grille. A vacuum cleaner can also be used for removing the dirty material. Nevertheless, always check that the heater is turned off, the power plug is disconnected for the power socket and that the heater has cooled down completely.
• Do not use chemicals or abrasive cleaning products for cleaning.
  Otherwise the surface of the appliance may be damaged.

Warning:
To prevent the risk of injury by electrical shock, do not submerge the appliance, power cord or power plug in water or any another liquid.

Long term storage

• When not using the appliance, store it in a dry, clean place out of children’s reach. Allow the appliance to cool down before storing it.
• Remove the battery from the remote control.
