Controls
INDICATOR NEON (SELECTED MODELS)
The indicator neon comes on when the appliance is
connected to mains supply.
THERMOSTAT (ALL MODELS)
The thermostat controls the heat output according
to the room temperature.
This ensures that the heater will not produce heat
unnecessarily when the room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, Gradually turn
the thermostat knob clockwise until the desired
temperature is reached. Allow some time between
increments for the room temperature to stabilise.
Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the
thermostat knob to the Max position. When the
room has reached the desired temperature, turn the
thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat
clicks off. The heater will then automatically maintain
this room temperature.
The thermostat also has a frost protection setting
marked ‘ ’. This setting is useful in areas such as
garages to prevent frost damage. If the thermostat
is set to its minimum setting ‘ ’, the heater will
cycle ON and OFF to maintain a temperature of
approximately 5°C to help protect against frosty
conditions.
Note - Should the heater fail to come on when the
thermostat is at a low setting, this may be due to the
room temperature being higher than the thermostat
setting.
HEAT SELECTOR SWITCHES (SELECTED
MODELS)
Selected models are supplied with a rotary switch
offering up to four settings.
The heat output can be
altered to suit the application, conditions and for improve the
economy of operation.

MECHANICAL TIMER (SELECTED MODELS)
Note: The timer clock will only operate when the
product is connected to the mains supply.
Operation modes
There are two operating modes on the timer, Manual
operation and Auto operation. The operation mode
is set using the slide switch on the timer - see Fig 4.
Manual operation (Position - I)
This setting allows power to the product uninterrupted by
the timer, however other product controls will continue to
function as normal.
Auto operation (Position - )
This setting allows the heater to be controlled by the timer.
The product will be switched on and off depending on the
pre-set timer program.
Setting the time of day
To set the time of day, rotate the timer dial clockwise
(indicated by the arrow) until the correct time of day is
opposite the reference mark - see Fig. 4. The 24-hour
clock is used ; e.g. 4 pm is ‘16’ (16:00hrs).
Setting the ‘Auto’ ON and OFF times
To set the timer :
1. Using your finger tip or the tip of a pencil, push in
as many segments as necessary around the dial,
according to the times you don’t require heat – see
Fig. 5. Each segment pushed in switches the heater
OFF for that part of the hour. All other segments will
be ON. For example, Fig. 5 shows the timer set to
switch the heater OFF between 11pm and 1.45am.
