shower, pool, fountains or other sources of moisture
(↔ > 1m.). Make sure it cannot fall into water, Also make
sure that it cannot come into contact with jets of water, splashes, etc. and prevent water from getting into the
heater itself. If, at any time, the heater does fall into water, unplug it immediately! Do not use a heater that
has a damp interior but have it repaired. Never immerse the heater, cord or plug in water and never touch it
with wet hands.
5. The supply voltage and utility frequency, specified on the machine, need to match those of the socket that is
used. The electrical installation needs to be protected by a residual current device (max. 30 mAmp.).
6. Fully extend the cord before plugging in the heater. Make sure it does not come into contact with any part of
the heater and prevent it from heating up any other way. Do not run the cord underneath carpeting; do not
cover it with mats, carpet strips or similar and make sure it is not placed in any passageways. Make sure the
cord cannot be stepped on and that no furniture is placed on top of it. Do not lead the cord around sharp
corners and do not roll it up too tightly after use!
7. If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses a risk of overheating and fire. If the use of an
extension cord is unavoidable, then make sure it is an undamaged, approved extension cord with a minimum
diameter of 2 x 1 mm². To prevent overheating, always fully extend the cord!
8. To prevent the circuit being overloaded and fuses blowing, make sure no other appliances are connected to
the same socket or wired to the same electrical circuit as the heater.
9. Do not use the heater outdoors and do not use it in spaces smaller than 2 m².
10. A heater contains hot and/or glowing and sparking components. Do not, therefore, use it in areas where
fuels, paint, flammable liquids and/or gasses etc. are stored.
11. Do not place the heater near, under, or directly opposite a socket and do not place it near an open fire or
other heat source.
12. Do not use the heater near or directly opposite furniture, animals, curtains, paper, clothes, bedding or other
inflammable objects. Keep them at least 1 metre
away from the heater!
13. Never cover a heater!
The heater‟s air inlets and outlets should never be obstructed in any way, so as to
prevent the possibility of fire. Never use the heater to dry clothes and do not place anything on top of the
heater. Do not place it on soft surfaces such as beds or deep-pile carpets as they can block openings.
14. Make sure that the air around the heater can circulate freely. In other words, do not place the heater too
close to walls or large objects and do not place it under shelves, cupboards or similar. Ensure that the
minimum distances, as set out in the assembly instructions, are always maintained.
15. Prevent foreign objects from entering the heater via the venting or exhaust openings as this may lead to
electric shock, fire or damage.
16. Always switch the heater off before removing the plug from the socket. Always unplug the heater when not in
use! Pull on the plug to remove from the socket, never pull on the cord.
