IMPORTANT
SETTING UP YOUR NEW HEATER
Setting up your new heater, called ‘commissioning’ is simple as instructed on
page 3. Please note that the new materials in the heater will produce a slight
smell for the first few days of operation.
Rooms must be well ventilated
and persons with respiratory complaints, young children or caged
birds must not remain in close proximity to the heater for a minimum
of the first 48 hours of the set-up period.
If several new heaters have been
installed it’s recommended that the set-up for each one (commissioning) is
phased over several days.
WARNING -
THE SURFACE OF THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT.
•
The surface temperatures of this heater are within the requirements of
EN60335-2-61, the European Standard covering the safety requirements
for Electric Storage Heaters, and momentary contact with any part of the
heater should not cause injury. However, in order to be effective, heaters of
any type do get hot, especially around the air outlet grille.
•
If aged or infirm persons, or young children, are likely to be left unsupervised in
the vicinity of a heater precautions should be taken to ensure that prolonged
contact with the heater cannot occur. We recommend that a guard is fitted
around the heater, as is normal with some types of heating appliances in similar
circumstances. A range of guards specially designed for Dimplex storage
heaters is available. If you require further information on these guards, please
see contact details on back page.

No attempt should be made to move the heater without first seeking
specialist advice. If you are not happy that the heater has been securely
fixed, please inform your installer.
•
If, during any reassembly of the heater, a part of the thermal insulation
shows damaged or deterioration which may impair safety, it should be
replaced with an identical part.
•
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE WALL FIXINGS BE
LOOSENED ON THIS HEATER BEFORE THE BRICKS HAVE BEEN
REMOVED FROM ITS CORE.
