OPERATION
Activate the device by using the main switch (3). The device display will show „- -”. Then you can turn the device on or off by using the switch (7) on the top. When switched on, the display shows „HH” and the device switches to heating mode. Its operation is then independent of the thermostat.
Use the thermostat control buttons (6) to set the desired temperature between 15 and 45 °C. If the ambient temperature drops 1 °C below the set value, the device switches to heating mode. If the ambient temperature exceeds the set value by 1 °C, the heating element in the appliance turns off, while the fan continues to run. When the set temperature is lower than the ambient temperature, the set value continuously flashes on the device display.
While the device is in operation, you can switch on or off the cosy flame effect at any time (8).
You can set a shut-off time within up to 12 hours by using the device shut-off timer (9). Set the desired value by repeatedly pressing the button, and the device will shut off automatically after the set time has elapsed.
You can switch off the device at any time by pressing the on/off button (7). In this case, the device continues to operate in fan mode for half a minute, and the display shows a countdown. Do not disconnect the unit, until it stops completely. This may cause damage to the unit!
Overheating protection serves to switch off the device in the event of overheating, e.g., if the air inlet or outlet is blocked. Disconnect the device by pulling out the main plug. Let the device cool down (min. 30 minutes). Check if the air inlet and outlet are unblocked; clean them if necessary. Turn on the device again.
