DANGER: ElectrocutionBefore cleaning, make sure the power has been turned off at the circuit breaker panel and that the heating element of the heater is cool.

WARNING: BurnsNever operate this heater …– if the minimum clearances to adjacent object surfaces are not maintained, for example to furniture, net curtains, curtains, textiles or other flammable materials (See 14.2, “Minimum clearances to hard surfaces”, pg. 8).– in rooms where the heater is at risk from fire or explosion as a result of chemicals, dust, gases or vapors.– in the direct proximity of pipes or containers that carry or contain flammable or explosive materials.– if work such as laying cables, grinding or sealing is carried out in the installation room.– if sprays, floor polish or similar products containing gasoline are used. Vent the room sufficiently before heating.– if an heater component is damaged, the heater has fallen over or already had a fault.– outdoors.

WARNING: FireNever place any flammable, combustible or insulating objects or materials, such as laundry, blankets, magazines, containers with floor polish or gasoline, spray cans or similar on the heater or in direct proximity to it.

WARNING: FireEnsure that no foreign bodies enter the air inlet and outlet. This could result in electric shock or fire or in damage to the heater.

WARNING: FireTo prevent fires ensure that the air inlet and outlet are never blocked. Never position the heater on soft surfaces, such as a bed, as this could result in the apertures becoming blocked.

WARNING: BurnsThe casing surfaces of the heater and the expelled air become hot during use (above 194°F (90°C)). To prevent burns ensure that the hot surfaces never come into contact with bare skin.

Heater description

The unit is a wall mounted electric direct heater. It is suitable for use in areas such as workspaces, kitchens, bathrooms and alike.The heater heats the indoor air and keeps it at the selected temperature. The heater includes a fan that draws in indoor air through an air intake at the back of the heater. Inside the heater, the intake air is routed over a PTC heating element. Heated air is expelled through the air discharge at the front of the heater. When the selected room temperature has been reached, the heater maintains it through peroidic heating.The heater is equipped with a high limit safety cut-out that switches the heater off in case it overheats. Once the cause of the fault has been eliminated, the heater restarts within a few minutes (cooling period).The heater is equipped with further overheating protection in the form of a fuse that shuts down the heater irreversibly in the event of severe overheating.

  • Temperature selector
  • Air discharge
  • On/off rocker switch

Settings

On the left side of the unit, there is an on/off rocker switch that controls the operation. In the on position, the unit may turn on if the thermostat calls for heat. In the off position, the unit does not function.

The required room temperature can be infinitely adjusted by means of the temperature selector.

To shut down the heater, disconnect the circuit breaker for the heater.

Frost protectionTo use the heater only to protect from frost, turn the temperature selector counterclockwise as far as it will go. In this position, the heater heats automatically if the room temperature falls below the frost protection temperature (See 14.3, “Data table”, pg. 9).

Cleaning, care, and maintenance

DANGER: Electrocution Before cleaning, make sure the power has been turned off at the circuit breaker panel and that the heating element of the heater is cool.

Clean the exterior of the heater when cold with ordinary cleaning products. Avoid abrasive or corrosive cleaning products.If a pale brownish discoloration appears on the heater casing, wipe this off as soon as possible with a damp cloth.

 MATERIAL LOSSES:Never spray cleaning spray into the air slot.

Dust filter cleaning– Clean the dust filter at regular intervals. The dust filter can be pulled out from either side of the heater. You may need to detach the heater from the wall mounting bracket beforehand (See 11.1, “Wall mounting”, pg. 6).

Storage

When not in use, keep the heater in a dry place.

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause Remedy
The heater does not deliver the required heating output. The dust filter is heavily clogged. Check and, if necessary, clean the dust filter.
The heater does not heat up. The temperature has been set too low on the heater. Check the temperature set on the heater.
Fuse or safety switch has blown/tripped. Check the circuit breaker in your distribution panel.
Overheating. High limit safety cut-out has responded. Eliminate the cause (dirt or obstructions at the air inlet or outlet). The high limit will reset automatically.
Fuse has blown. Heater cannot be restarted. Contact Stiebel Eltron.

If you cannot remedy the fault, notify your qualified contractor. To facilitate and speed up your request, provide the number from the type plate (000000-0000-000000).
