Instruction Manual
Safety control
The heater is fitted with a safety device which switches it off in the event of
accidental overheating (e.g. obstruction of air intake and outlet grilles, motor turning
slowly or not operating at all). To reset, unplug the appliance from the mains socket
for a few minutes, remove the cause of overheating then plug in again. If it occurs
repeatedly contact an approved
service center for advice.
The heater is fitted with a tip over safety device which turns the appliance off if it
falls over or is positioned inappropriately in such a way that jeopardize safety. If this
happen, place the heater upright again, but take care as it may still be hot. The
heater will turn on again automatically once it is back in an upright position.
WARNING: Always place the appliance on a smooth, horizontal surface. Avoid
putting it on carpets in order to prevent failure of the safety switch.

plugged in and turned on. This feature is to prevent you from being unaware that the
heater is operating and maintaining the temperature of the room. If you do not want
the heater to adjust the room temperature, turn the power switch to “0” position and
remove the plug from the socket.
