Instruction Manual (SIMPLIFIED VERSION)
In this manual there is important information for the installation of your infrared heating ele-
ment. You have acquired an ecologic, economic heater and are thereby making an effective
contribution in saving the environment.
The infrared heating system proves itself through simple installation, flexibility in the assem-
bling and freedom from maintenance. So you can enjoy long use of your infrared heating
element and to assure your safety, please carefully read the instructions before installation.
Keep this manual at hand and never pass on this infrared heating element without the manual.
The infrared heating element does not work on the principle of convection heat but is a radiant
heater. Therefore, it is possible at the start-up that cold areas (furniture, walls, ceiling and floors)
need to be warmed up first. If you don’t immediately have a comfortable feeling of warmth, then
let the heater run for several hours, or even several days if necessary, until a comfortable indoor
climate has been reached. As soon as the solid areas have warmed up, comfortable warmth
will spread throughout the room and then you can pare down the running time of your heater to
the minimum. To enjoy the comfortable warmth to its fullest, we recommend that you install a
high-quality control (thermostat) – please contact a specialized dealer or service company.
