Components
WARNING: Heater must not be used without the feet fitted.
This appliance has been supplied with ‘1-way screws’ for permanent
installation of the feet. This is a safety requirement for the New Zealand and
Australian market.
ASSEMBLY
Before using the heater, the feet (supplied separately in the carton), must be
fitted to the unit. The screw pack to attach the feet to your heater will be
taped to either one of the feet for your heater, or taped to the plug.
Carefully turn the Main Body upside-down on a scratch-free and stable surface. Be careful to prevent damage to the cosmetic finish or your floor surfacing.
Before the appliance can be used, the feet must be screwed on as follows:
- Unpack the appliance from the packaging.
- Remove the transport packaging.
- Check that the appliance shows no signs of damage.
- Slide the feet from the outside into the corresponding supports on the underside of the heater.
- Secure the feet firmly using the screws supplied.
WARNING: Operate the heater in the normal upright position only with the feet attached to the bottom. Any other position could create a hazardous situation.
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: In order to avoid overheating or fire, do not cover the heater.
WARNING: Keep all objects at least 1 meter from the front and 150mm from
the sides 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. If mounted on
castors, 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 and switch it 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 odor or smoke. This odor or smoke is a normal occurrence caused by
the initial heating of the heating elements and should not occur again.
