3. The digital thermostat will memorise the
settings if the heater is turned off using the
“MODE” button (see 6 above). However, if
the heater is unplugged, the digital thermostat
settings will need to be reprogrammed as
detailed from above.
USING THE TIMER
Programmable Timer (For BFH430 only)
The user can programme the heater to come
ON at a preset time OR switch OFF after a
selected period.
Setting the ON timer
1. If the heater is on, press the mode button for
2 seconds to switch the heater off.
2. While the heater is off, hold down both the (+)
and (-) buttons together to select timer. The
display will flash and a red dot will flash on the
right hand side of the digital display.
3. Using either the (+) or (-) buttons, programme
the heater to switch on up to 16 hours later, in
increments of 1 hour.
Example - 4 hours.
4. After the preset length of time the heater will
automatically turn on.
Example - Switch ON
The time is 1 pm. You require the heater to
switch on at 5 pm therefore: Set the ON time
at 4 hours.
Setting the OFF timer
1. Select the Mode and temperature you want
the heater to run in (e.g. Lo-Auto-18˚) as above.
2. While the heater is running hold down both
the (+) and (-) buttons together to select timer.
The display will flash and red dot will flash on
the right hand sode of the digital display.
3. Using either the (+) or (-) buttons programme
the heater to turn off up to 16 hours later in
increments of 1 hour.
Example - 4 hours.
4. After setting the time, the digital display
will return to showing the current room
temperature and will illuminate to show the
timer is activated. After the predetermined
length of time has passed, the heater will
automatically switch off.
Example - Switch OFF
The time is 1 pm. The heater is running and
you require the heater to switch off at 5 pm
therefore: Set the time at 4 hours.
NOTE:
1. When the timer is set, a red dot will flash
continuously in the right hand side of the
digital display.
2. If the Mode button is pressed when the
timer is actived, the timer function will be
cancelled. To reactivate the timer, it will need
to be reprogrammed as detailed above.
3. It is not possible to set the on and off timers
as part of the same programme.
MOUNTING THE HEATER ON THE
WALL - (Fig. 3 - 4)
1. Use the bracket as a template to mark the
position of the holes to be drilled.
(
NOTE:
Ensure that the position you choose
is suitable for mounting the heater and
that the area for fixing is away from hidden
electrical cables or pipes.)
2. Drill the holes and fix the bracket to the wall
using wall plugs and screws.
3. Slide the heater correctly onto the bracket
until it “clicks” firmly into place and the heater
is safely held.
FROST GUARD
For BFH420 only
Turn the thermostat to the minimum (furthest
left position). The unit will automatically start
when the temperature drops below 5˚C.
For BFH430 only
Press the ‘Mode’ button 5 consecutive
times for Anti Frost setting (AF will show in
the digital display). This special setting is
automatically activated when the (AF) mode is
selected. In this mode, the heater is off until
the room’s temperature reaches freezing and
the heater automatically turns on HI power.
The heater will cycle ON and OFF as it
maintains the temperature between 5˚C - 8˚C.
AUTO SAFETY SHUT OFF
This heater is equipped with a technologically
advanced safety system that requires the user
to reset the heater if there is a potential overheat
situation. When a potential overheat situation is
reached, (e.g. if the heater was accidentally covered)
the system will automatically switch the heater off.
Operation can only be resumed if the user resets the
heater as detailed below.
To reset the heater
1. Unplug the heater and allow 30 minutes for
the heater to cool down.
2. After 30 minutes plug the heater in and
operate normally.

• Remove the plug from the wall socket.
• Wait for the heater to cool down sufficiently.
• You may clean the outside of the heater with a
• DO NOT insert any objects into the heater.
• Keep the mains cord at a safe distance from
the main body of the heater.
• Prevent overheating of the heater by keeping
the air inlet and outlet unblocked. DO NOT
hang anything in front of or above the heater.
• If overheating should occur, the built-in
overheating safety device will switch off the
heater.
• DO NOT use aerosols, inflammable
substances or materials sensitive to heat in
the flow of hot air.
Servicing
• Should the heater stop working, first check
the fuse in the plug (UK only) or fuse/circuit
breaker at the distribution board is operating,
before contacting the manufacturer or service
agent.
• If the supply cord or plug is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid hazard.
• The heater contains no user serviceable
parts and should the product suffer damage
or breakdown it must be returned to the
manufacturer or their service agent.
HOW TO REMOVE THE HEATER FROM
THE BRACKET
1. Always unplug the heater first.
2. Push the small lug on the bracket
downwards and simultaneously pull the
appliance off the bracket.
OPERATION (FOR BFH420 ONLY)
Setting the power level
Turn the Mode control (B) switch clockwise
= fan position - cool air
1 = low power (1200 watts)
2 = high power (2400 watts)
Setting the temperature level
Use the thermostat to set the desired
temperature level. The thermostat will maintain
the desired temperature level by switching on
and off at intervals.
1. To find the ideal thermostat setting, turn the
thermostat knob (C) clockwise as far as it will go.
2. When the desired temperature is reached,
slowly turn the thermostat knob anti-clockwise
until the heater turns off.
3. The heater will now automatically retain the

Turn the timer control (A) clockwise and set the
number of minutes e.g. 30 = On for 30 minutes.
The pilot light goes on and the appliance
switches on at the preset temperature and
setting. The heater switches off and the pilot
light goes out as soon as the preset time has
elapsed. e.g. if you turn the dial clockwise to 30,
the heater will stay on for 30 minutes and then
switch off.
To switch the timer off:
Slowly turn the timer control anti-clockwise and
select setting.
DIGITAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL
