To switch off, turn the power switches to O (off). The heater switches off. Unplug.
Note! After the thermostat has switched the heating elements off, the fan will keep turning.
This means that the air is constantly moved, allowing the heater to accurately detect if the area
is cooling down. The thermostat dial is continuously adjustable. A higher temperature is set by
turning it clockwise; a lower temperature by turning it anticlockwise.
The devices are fitted with an extra feature to increase safety and the life span of the device.
This extra feature only switches the ventilator of the fan off when the temperature in the heater
has dropped below 30 degrees Celsius. When you switch the heater off by switching the
function button to 0, the ventilator continues to operate for 3 to 4 minutes until the
temperature in the heater has dropped below 30 degrees Celsius. You may only remove the
plug from the socket when the ventilator is completely stopped.
Safety features
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater off. If this
occurs, immediately turn the mode selector dial to O, unplug and allow heater to cool down
for at least 10 minutes.
Reset button
You must now reset the device by firmly pressing the reset button on the
control panel on the front of the device.
In theory, the heater can now be used as normal.
There is, however, generally a reason for an appliance overheating. This may be because the
heater cannot adequately release its heat or take in fresh air (because the heater is covered,
the grills are blocked, the heater is placed too near a wall etcetera). Before using the heater
again, therefore, remove or adjust whatever caused the appliance to overheat. If you cannot
find the cause and overheating recurs, stop using the heater and contact your vendor or a
certified electrician for inspection/repair. Overheating poses a serious fire risk!
Cleaning and Maintenance
Keep the heater clean. Deposits of dust and dirt in the appliance are a common cause of
overheating so these should be removed regularly. Switch off the heater, remove the plug
from the socket and allow the heater to cool down before cleaning or carrying out
maintenance work..
•
Wipe the outside of the heater regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use
aggressive soaps, sprays, cleaners or abrasives, waxes, polishes or chemical solutions!
•
Use a vacuum cleaner or compressor to carefully remove any dust and dirt from the
grills and ensure that the air intake and outlet openings are clean. Be careful not to
touch or damage any internal parts during cleaning!
•
The heater contains no other parts which need maintenance.
•
At the end of the season, store the cleaned heater in the original packaging if possible.
Store upright in a cool, dry and dust-free place.
