Care and Maintenance
•
Olsberg heaters have been constructed so that
they need only a minimum of maintenance.
•
Olsberg-Heaters are fitted with a fluff filter. The fluff
filter should be cleaned at regular intervals, de-
pendent on the amount of dust in the room (ideally
before each heating season).
Cleaning the filter should only take place on a cold
heater. Push the air-outlet grille to the left. The fluff
filter can now be removed and cleaned or replaced
by a new one (see chapter „Spare filter set“).
Caution:
The fluff filter must be completely dry be-
fore it is reinstalled into the heater.

Fluff filter
•
The fan is equipped with self-lubricating bearings.
We recommend that the heater be opened from
time to time by a qualified installer who can free
the heater from any dust which may have accumu-
lated on the fan or in the air-outlet channels.
•
Cleaning and maintenance intervals are dependent
on the conditions under which the heater works.
We recommend that the first check take place at
the latest before the beginning of the second heat-
ing period. Further maintenance intervals can then
be individually set.
•
We recommend that the control and regulation
elements of the heater also be checked regularly.
All safety, control and regulation elements should
be checked by a qualified installer at the latest 10
years after initial installation. This can save unnec-
essary energy costs.
•
Do not use soft-scrub or other abrasive substances
to clean the surfaces of the heater. Normal house-
hold cleaners suffice entirely.

Important Instructions
•
As the surfaces of the heater cabinet get hot in
use, flammable or other objects presenting a dan-
ger of fire must not be placed on, or near the
heater.
Do not, therefore, place any wooden objects,
clothes or washing, newspapers, blankets or the
like on or over the heater and do not put any
pieces of furniture made of inflammable materials,
nor spray tubes or similar objects closer than
25cm in front of, or on the heater, especially not in
front of the air-outlet grille.
•
It is important to remember that the surfaces of
the heater can reach temperatures in excess of
80°C during operation.
•
The storage heater is only to be used in rooms
where neither explosive gases (e.g. from floor-
sealant), nor inflammable dust is present!
If renovation work causing dust accumulations is
taking place the heaters must either be operated
without the fans or switched off altogether.
•
Electrical appliances conform to valid safety regu-
lations. Repairs and service to electrical appliances
must only be carried out by a competent electri-
cian. Improper repair can mean distinct danger to
the user.
•
This heater is not intended for operating by per-
sons (including children), with reduced physical,
sensory or mental abilities or for lack of experience

son responsible for their security is supervised or
