Important Safety Advice
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the
following:
IMPORTANT – The wall brackets supplied with the
appliance must be used.
IMPORTANT – If the heater is installed in a room
containing a bath or shower, it must be so installed that
switches and other controls cannot be touched by a
person using a bath or shower.
WARNING - DO NOT USE THIS HEATER IN THE IMMEDIATE
SURROUNDINGS OF A BATH, A SHOWER OR A SWIMMING
POOL.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket
outlet or connection box.
Do not cover the heater. Do not place material or
garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation
around the heater, for instance by curtains or pushing
furniture up against the heater, as this could cause
overheating and a fire risk.
NEVER cover or obstruct in any way the heat outlet slots
at the top of the heater or the air inlet slots in the base of
the heater.
WARNING – THE SURFACES OF THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT.
Momentary contact with any part of the heater should
not cause injury. However, aged or infirm persons or
young children should not be left unsupervised in the
vicinity of the heater unless a suitable guard is fitted.
This appliance is not intended for use by children or
other persons without assistance or supervision if their
physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them
from using it safely. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Note that due care and consideration must be taken
when using this heater in series with a thermal control,
a program controller, a timer or any other device that
switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk
exists when the heater is accidentally covered or
displaced.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
