GETTING STARTED

1. Carefully remove the heater from packaging and the carton, and unwind the cord to its full length.
2. Either fit the castors & place the heater onto a stable, flat and dry surface, or fit the mounting brackets to a stable wall & hang from the wall in a dry position away from open or running water. See installation sections for details.
3. Turn the heater off at the power switch (on the top right hand side of the unit). Plug the cord set into a 220- 240V~A.C. 50Hz electrical outlet. Turn the power on at the electrical outlet.
4. Turn the heater on at the power switch (on the right hand side of the unit). Depending on the last setting, either the numeric display will light up showing the previous temperature setting (the appliance will start to operate), or the numeric display decimal point will light up (the appliance in stand-by mode). If in stand-by mode, press the power button to start the appliance, and press again to put back to stand-by mode.

NOTE : Heater must have castors fitted or be attached to a wall before use.

FILTERS
The main filter can be fitted by pushing it into the slots mounted at the bottom of the appliance. It is designed to stop hair and dust from entering the appliance and collecting where it is hard to clean as well as removing them from air circulation. Remover the filter and clean with a vacuum cleaner periodically to keep the appliance working efficiently.

NOTE : Allowing dust & hair to build up can create a potential fire hazard. The small filter inserts can be used to disperse fragrance oils. Place one or 2 drops of the fragrance oil in each filter insert, and place in the rear corners of the main filter. Place the main filter under the appliance as described above. The heating effect and natural air convection will draw the scent through the heater and help distribute it throughout the room. NOTE: Do not overload the filter inserts with oils as they could be potentially flammable.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TURNING ON & OFF
Once the unit is in stand-by mode, press the power button once to turn the unit on. The LED display will show the current set temperature. Press again to put the appliance back into stand-by mode (only the decimal point will be displayed). NOTE: If the power supply is interrupted while the unit is operating, the unit will restart at using the same function when the power is reinstated.

POWER SETTINGS
There are 3 power settings, low, high and anti-frost. For normal operation, use the low or high settings. Once the unit is operating, the setting can be changed by pushing the low power button or high power button. Generally, start the unit using the high power setting (high power indicator lit), to heat the room as fast as possible. Once the required temperature has been reached, the unit can be turned down to the low power setting low power indicator lit) to save power but keep the same temperature.

The anti-frost setting runs the appliance at 5°C (the numeric display shows 5°C and the anti-frost indicator is lit). Press once to activate, and then a second time to revert to the previous power setting (note there is no temperature adjustment on this setting). Note: Timer functions do not work when using the anti-frost setting.

SETTING TEMPERATURES
While the unit is operating in either the low or high power modes, press the increase setting button or decrease setting button once (decimal point is lit). Adjust the setting up or down by pressing the buttons. The numeric display will flash for 5 seconds after the last button pressed and then store the setting (decimal point turns off). The temperature can be set between 5°C & 35°C).

SETTING THE TIMER
While the unit is operating, press the timer button once. The numerical display will show the current timer setting (0-24 hours) and the timer set indicator will light up. Adjust the timer setting up or down using the increase setting button and decrease setting button. The numeric display (and timer setting indicator) will flash for 5 seconds after the last button pressed and then store the timer setting. Once the timer finishes, the appliance will revert to the stand-by mode. The timer will be disabled if the power button (A1) is turned off and on, the timer button is pressed again or the timer setting is set to “0”. The timer will remain set if the main power switch is turned on and off, or the power supply is interrupted.

A timer function can also be set to turn the appliance on after a set period of time. With the appliance in stand-by mode, repeat the above sequence to set a time in hours. After 5 seconds, the display will turn off, but the timer set indicator will stay on. When the set time has elapsed, the appliance will turn on.

NOTE : Take care that the appliance is in a safe position and nothing can accidentally be placed against it.
Timer settings can be adjusted at any time by pressing the timer button twice and adjusting the time as above.

MAIN POWER SWITCH
The main power switch is to the right of the control panel. After the heater is plugged in, switching this on allows the heater to function & switching it off stops all functions.

CONTROL PANEL LOCK
The control panel buttons can be locked when operating or in stand-by mode. Press the increase setting and decrease setting buttons together for 3 seconds and the display will show the lock symbol “[]” for 3 seconds and then revert to the previous display. Pressing any button will cause “[]” to be displayed again with no change to the functions. Turn the lock off by repeating the process. The lock will stay in place even if the main power button is turned off and on, or there is a short power failure.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

This heater can either be mounted to a wall or used with the supplied castors. Please note the following safety warnings:

• This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Always use the control panel or castor supports when moving the heater (when not wall mounted). Keep combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 1 meter from the front & top of the heater and keep them at least 0.5 meters from the sides and rear. Do not cover.
• The heater has hot parts inside. It must NOT be used in potentially dangerous locations such as flammable, explosive, chemical-laden or wet atmospheres. This heater is intended for general indoor domestic use ONLY.
• This heater is not intended for use in wet or damp locations, such as a bathroom or any area containing a bath, shower, wash basin or close to water or damp items. Never locate a heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container. It must be positioned or installed so that the controls cannot be touched by a person in a bath or shower. Do not immerse the power cord in any liquid (including water).
• Never install or use the heater directly below a wall socket.
• When fixing on a wall, the heater must be level, securely fixed & at the correct height (check with local authorities if unsure). There must be at least 150mm between it and any barrier/wall to the sides, bottom or top to prevent overheating or damage.

FITTING CASTORS
Make sure the heater is unplugged from the mains power. Turn the heater upside down & rest on a protective surface. Place a castor bracket over the screw hole at either side of the heater base. Use the supplied thumb screw to attach the castor bracket firmly to the heater base (do not over-tighten). Push the castors into the slots. Turn the heater right side up & it is ready to connect to mains power. Note: The heater gets hot when in use, so it is best not to move when in use. If it must be moved, use the castor brackets or control panel as points of contact.

WALL MOUNTING
Do not fit the castors to the base of the heater. Make sure the heater is unplugged from the mains power and the wall is suitable for mounting the panel heater and there are the correct clearances. Make sure the panel heater is within 1 metre of a power socket. Detach the mounting bracket from the rear of the heater by compressing the 2 bracket clips, pulling the clips out of the heater rear & removing the bracket hooks from the heater.

Position the bracket on the wall in the desired position & drill holes for four mounting screws. Once the holes are drilled, use four screws (appropriate for the type of wall) to fix the bracket firmly in place. Check for strength.

Carefully place the heater (slightly tilted forward) onto the hooks at the bottom of the bracket & rotate back so the clips fix back into their original holes. Check that they are fixed correctly. If possible, have a second person help to check for alignment as the heater is attached. The heater is now ready to connect to the mains power.

SAFETY FEATURES

SPECIFICATIONS

HINTS & TIPS

Where possible, your electric panel convection heater should be connected to a power outlet that uses a separate 10 amp power circuit than other items. This will avoid overloading your household fuse.
In the event that your household fuse is overloaded and trips, please note this is normally caused by the use of excessive power outlets at the same time your heater is operating (for example, a steam iron, kettle, toaster etc.). Please ensure to check the use of the power circuit and adjust when heater is in use (i.e. turn off the heater when boiling a kettle).

If your heater does not work:

• Check that power is available to the heater & it is plugged in & turned on.
• Check that the heater temperatures are set correctly for the ambient temperature.
• Check that the thermal cut-out has not activated (see safety features).
• Do not try to repair the heater.
