Please read these instructions carefully.
• To disconnect mains power from the radiator remove the plug from the wall socket, but
never pull on the cable.
• Do not leave the mains cable in contact with the radiator when it is switched on.
• During operation, the radiator must be kept well away from combustible materials, such
as curtains, carpets and furniture etc.
•
DO NOT COVER THE RADIATOR. DO NOT USE TO DRY CLOTHES.
If it is covered, there is a risk of overheating.
•
CAUTION:
If the mains power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its after-sales service or similarly qualified persons, in order to prevent any
danger.
•
If the radiator is to be installed in a bathroom, it must be positioned so that it
cannot be touched by anybody in the bath or shower.
• The radiator must not be installed below or in front of a mains socket.
• When the radiator is disposed of, the requirements established by current legislation on
waste processing and recycling must be taken into account.
• The installation should be carried out with consideration to the manufacturer’s
instructions and in accordance to the relevant National Wiring Regulations BS7671.
• It is very important that the radiator has a good Electric Earth connection.
• The radiator should be installed so that its mains plug is always accessible.
• This radiator cannot be flush-mounted with a wall. Safety distances should always be
respected.

Children must always be supervised to ensure they do not play with the unit.
• Children under three should be kept well away from the heater unless they are
continually supervised.

positioned or installed in its final operating location, and be supervised or have received
instructions on how to use the unit in a safe manner and understand the risks involved.

out any maintenance operations.

Special attention should be paid when children and other vulnerable persons are present.
•
CAUTION:
Keep bags and other accessories well away from children.
• Do not touch the external parts of the radiator when it is operating.

several days, the unit should be cleaned (follow the steps given in the ‘maintenance
