Depending on the power cord type this fan heater may be used only in household, warehouses and workshops, building sites or greenhouses depending. It incorporates a thermostat and a self-resetting thermal cut-out to control the heating elements. The thermostat feels the air temperature and controls the surrounding temperature. The fan motor is controlled by thermostat and it keeps on working when the thermostat cuts off the heating element. The self-resetting thermal cut-out will switch off the heater to ensure the
safety when overheating.
When using the heater for the first time, you may notice a slight emission of smoke. This is quite normal and it stops after a short time. The heating element is made of stainless steel
and was coated with protection oil by production. The smoke is caused by the left oil when
