precautions should always be observed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons. Read all
instructions carefully before using the appliance. Specifically:
Danger!
Failure to observe the warning may result in life
threatening injury by electric shock.

use in the vicinity of bathtubs, wash basins,
showers, sinks and swimming pools.

make sure that the switch or other control
devices are not within reach of persons in the
bath or shower.

must be replaced by the manufacturer or
the technical service centre or by a qualified
person so as to avoid all risks.

Failure to observe the warning could result in
injury or damage to the appliance.
- The appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or

concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should
be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.

caused by an accidental resetting of the safety
system, this appliance must not be powered
through an external timer.
- Do not use the appliance in small rooms when
they are occupied by persons that are not
capable of leaving the room, unless constant
supervision is provided.

WARNING:
In order to avoid
overheating, never under any
circumstances cover the appliances
during operation, as this would lead to
dangerous overheating.
- Never use the heater to dry laundry.
- Never place the power cable on top of the
heater while it is hot.
-
The use of an extension cord is not
recommended, as overheating of the
extension lead may occur during the

Please note:
This symbol indicates recommendations and
important information for the user.
- We recommend that you not place the heater
in a draft, because strong draft of air may
adversely affect the equipment’s operational
efficiency.
- Only use the heater in an upright position.
- The first time you use the appliance, operate
it of at least 15 minutes with the thermostat
at maximum to eliminate the “new” smell. A
little smoke due to the protective substances
applied to the heating element before
transport may be given off.
- Position the appliance so that the plug and
the outlet can be easily reached even after
installation.
- A tip over safety device turns the appliance off
if it falls over or is positioned inappropriately
in such a way as to jeopardise safety. The
