HOW TO USE
Read all instructions before using this appliance and keep them for future reference.
- Before using the heater make sure that it is on a flat and stable surface. Damage may occur if it is placed on an incline or decline.
- Then insert the plug into a socket-outlet.
- Rotate the thermostat dial (Fig.c) clockwise to “MAX” position and select the power setting on the power dial (Fig.d).
- When your room reaches the desired temperature, slowly rotate the thermostat dial counter-clockwise until the power indicator light goes out. The thermostat can now be left at this setting. As soon as the room temperature has dropped below the set temperature, the unit will switch on automatically, until the set temperature has been reached again. In this way the room temperature remains constant with the highest energy efficiency.
- If you want to change the room temperature setting, rotate the thermostat dial clockwise to raise the temperature, or counter-clockwise to lower it.
- This heater includes an overheat protection system that shuts off the heater when parts of the heater are getting excessively hot.
- To completely shut the heater off, turn thermostat to “Min” and setting button to “off”, and unplug the heater from the socket-outlet.
