Electrical Safety
WARNING! It is important to ensure electrical safety when using this
product. Please follow these guidelines:
- Before use, check all electrical products to ensure they are safe. Inspect power cables, plugs, sockets, and connectors for wear or damage.
- Minimize the risk of electric shock by installing appropriate safety devices, such as a Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) in the main distribution board. We recommend using a Residual Current Device (RCD) as well.
- For portable products plugged into a supply without an RCCB, it is particularly important to use an RCD.
- If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

To comply with electrical safety regulations, follow these instructions:
- All portable electrical appliances used on business premises must be tested annually by a qualified electrician using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
- Owners of electrical appliances are responsible for their safe condition and the safety of the operators.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
-
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety. -
The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
-
The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
-
Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
-
Use a Portable Appliance Tester.
-
Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
-
Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that none are loose.
-
Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse – see fuse rating at right.
-
DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
-
DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
-
DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely. Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
- Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
- Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
- Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
- After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been connected correctly, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
- Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above.
- DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
- If an extension reel is used it should be as short as possible and fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm² section cable.

IMPORTANT! This unit is designed to raise the ambient temperature of an entire room, the temperature of the air coming out of the front of the heater will be warmer than the general temperature of the room, but there may not be a significant increase due to the large volume of air passing over the element. For the same reason, the element is hot during operation, but does not visibly glow. The room temperature depends on room size, insulation and the ambient temperature, which will increase as the room gets warmer.
OPERATION
-
Position heater in an upright position on a firm surface and at a safe distance from any obstructions, flammable substances etc. Keep to a minimum of 0.5m clearance at the rear and sides, and 2m clearance at the front.

-
Set the thermostat dial to its maximum setting (fully clockwise).
-
The heater will switch on when the power setting dial is set to the heater setting.
NOTE : It will take up to three minutes for the heater to reach optimum temperature. -
Once the room reaches the required temperature, turn the thermostat dial slowly counter-clockwise until the thermostat clicks, leave the dial in this position to maintain the room temperature at this setting. The heater will continue to operate until the power switch is turned to the OFF position.
-
For fan only operation, turn the power/fan selector to the fan only setting, and set the thermostat to its minimum setting.
-
When not in use, disconnect the heater from the mains supply. Store it in a safe, dry, childproof location.
