ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE HEATER TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.

Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as insertion into a power socket  could cause an electrical hazard.

WARNING: THE WIRES IN THE POWER CABLE OF THIS PRODUCT ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE YELLOW AND GREEN = EARTH

If the colours of the wires in the power cable do not agree with the markings on the plug:

  • The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
  • The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
  • The YELLOW AND GREEN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked E or’ ‘ or coloured green.

We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply through a Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB).
If you are not sure, consult a qualified electrician.

OPERATION

WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS HEATER IN SMALL ROOMS IF OCCUPIED BY PERSONS NOT CAPABLE OF LEAVING THE ROOM ON THEIR OWN, UNLESS CONSTANT SUPERVISION IS PROVIDED.
CAUTION: SOME PARTS OF THIS PRODUCT CAN BECOME VERY HOT AND CAUSE BURNS. PARTICULAR ATTENTION HAS TO BE GIVEN WHERE CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE PEOPLE ARE PRESENT.

  1. Put the heater in a level position on a firm, flat surface and at a safe distance from flammable materials. Keep a minimum of 2m clearance all round.

  2. Connect the heater to a suitable power supply.

  3. Set the selector switch to one of the 3 settings.
    | Off
    ---|---
    | Fan only
    | Fan + Heat Setting 1
    | Fan + Heat Setting 2

  4. Set the thermostat control to the maximum setting (fully clockwise) and let the heater operate on full power.

  5. The heater will switch on when the selector is set to one of the power settings.

  6. Once the room reaches the required temperature, the heating element will stop working and will come back on automatically to maintain a constant temperature in the room.

  7. Turn the thermostat control slowly counter-clockwise until the thermostat clicks off to set the running temperature. Leave the control in this position.

  8. When not in use, disconnect the heater from the mains supply.

SAFETY SYSTEMS
The Devil 2850 has a thermal cut out to prevent the unit from overheating.
If the temperature of the front grille gets too high the thermal cutout will turn off the heating elements. When the fan has cooled the unit sufficiently, normal operation will resume.
In the event of the heater falling over, the tip-over switch will cut off the power until it is set upright again.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

  1. Clean the heater with a soft damp cloth, Do not use solvents or abrasives.
  2. No other maintenance is required, should you discover any problem with the heater, return it to the CLARKE service department for repair. Store the heater in a dry, ventilated place.
