Operating Your Heater

Always choose a safe location for the heater, keeping in mind the safety precautions outlined. Ensure all packaging has been removed from the unit before use. Please follow the below instructions.

• WARNING: To avoid overheating or fire, do not cover the heater.
• WARNING: Keep all objects at least 1 metre from the front, sides and rear of the appliance.
• WARNING: Do not use this heater with a programmer, separate timer, remote-control system or any other device that switches the heater on automatically, since a fire risk exists if the heater is covered or positioned incorrectly.
• WARNING: Never leave this heater unattended when in use.
• Ensure the heater is on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Once the heater is in a safe operating position and all switches are in the off position, insert the power plug into the mains outlet and switch on.
• CAUTION: Ensure the power cord is not tight because if pulled it may partially pull the plug from the socket. A partially inserted plug will overheat the plug and socket and could result in fire.
• Note: When the appliance is turned on for the first time, it may release a slight odour or smoke. This odour or smoke is a normal occurrence caused by the initial heating of the heating elements and should not occur again.

HEATER CONTROL

• Ensure the heater is on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Once the heater is in a safe operating position and all switches are in the off position, insert the power plug into the main outlet. Turn the Power Switch at the back of the heater to the ‘I’ position. The heater is now in STANDBY mode.
• The heater can be operated by the touchscreen control panel, remote control or via the Goldair App. When an operation has been selected, the relevant LED light on the control panel will display.
• ON/OFF: Turns the heater ON/OFF while in STANDBY mode. The LED light will display the current room temperature and begin to blow out room-temperature air. Touch ON/OFF again to turn the unit OFF. To assist in protecting the internal components, when the unit is turned OFF the fan will continue to blow room temperature air for 30-60 seconds before shutting down to standby.
• DO NOT TURN OFF THE MAIN POWER SWITCH OR THE WALL DURING THIS TIME.
• ‘+’ and ‘-‘: Increases/Decreases the desired temperature and puts the heater into Auto (Ai) mode. When the temperature is set more than 4℃ higher than the room temperature, the heater will run on high mode. When the set temperature is equal to or less than 4℃ higher than the room temperature, the heater will run on low mode. When the set temperature is equal to or lower than the room temperature, the heater will run on fan mode and blow out room-temperature air.
• MODE: Change the mode between Low heat, High heat and Fan.
• TIMER: Turns on the Timer. When the heater is ON, use the Timer to set the timer to turn the heater OFF. This will activate the ‘Timer’ LED. When the heater is OFF, use the Timer to set the timer to turn the heater ON. This will activate the ‘Reservation’ LED. Increase the timer amount by 1 hour each time you press the TIMER button, up to a maximum of 9 hours. Use the ‘+’ and ‘–’ controls to set the desired temperature, and once the LED stops flashing the timer function has been set.
