ASSEMBLY

Attaching the Feet

1. Ensure that the heater is not plugged in and is completely cool before attaching the feet.
2. Carefully turn the heater over so that the underside is facing upwards. Place it on a soft surface to not scratch the top.
3. Place one of the heater feet against a corner of the underside of the heater, ensuring that the screw holes are aligned with the thread in the heater.
4. Secure the foot to the heater using 3 screws. Tighten them evenly to avoid the foot becoming skewed.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 for each of the 3 remaining feet, until all 4 are securely attached.
6. Carefully turn the heater upright and check the stability of the feet. If there is no excessive wobble once turned upright, then the heater can be placed in the desired position and used normally. If there is wobble, then ensure that the screws are evenly tightened.

Placement
This heater is designed to be placed on a hard, level surface. When positioning, keep the following in mind:

• If you are placing the heater in an alcove, ensure that there is at least 150mm of space on all sides to ensure proper air circulation.
• The heater must not be located over a fixed electrical socket. The socket must always be accessible to disconnect the heater from the electrical supply for maintenance.
• Keep hearth rugs and other soft furnishings away from the front of the heater. They could obstruct the free flow of hot air from the fan and damage both soft furnishings  and heater.
