OMEGA ALTISE
GETTING STARTED
1. Carefully remove the heater from packaging and the carton, and unwind the cord to its full length.
2. Either fit the feet & place the heater onto a stable, flat and dry surface, or fit the mounting brackets to a stable
wall & hang from the wall in a dry position away from open or running water. See installation sections for
details.
3. Turn the heater on at the timer switch (position G) and turn the Power Select Switch to off. Plug the cord set into
a 220-240V~A.C. 50Hz electrical outlet. Turn the power on at the electrical outlet.
4. The heater is now ready for use. Refer to the operating instructions section further in this manual for the full
operation of your heater.
NOTE: When the heater elements are working, the indicators (A, B or A, B & C) will be lit. Once the heater has
reached its required temperature, the elements are turned off & the indicator(s) also turn off.
NOTE: The fan works with the medium and high power settings only. When the required temperature has been
reached, it will also turn off.
NOTE: Heater must have feet fitted or be attached to a wall before use.
NOTE: This heater is not designed to run in ambient temperatures above 25
⁰
C. Running above this may set off the
internal over-temp safety switches (which turns the elements off, but allows the fan to continue to run if set to the
higher two power settings). Prolonged operation at higher temperatures could damage this appliance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TURNING ON & OFF
Once the unit is plugged in (power on) with the Timer Switch on (J) switched to the Timer Switch Bypass position (G),
the heater can be operated with the Power Select Knob. If the Timer Switch is adjusted to the Timer Run position, the
heater will only work when the timer is at an “on” position. If the Timer Switch is at the Heater Off position, the
heater will not run. NOTE: If the power supply is interrupted while the unit is operating, the unit will restart at using
the same function when the power is reinstated.
POWER SETTINGS
There are 3 power settings, low, medium & high. Adjust between the power settings using the Power Select Switch.
Each power setting lights up different indicators.
a)
Off: No indicators lit.
b)
Low: Low Power indicator (A) lights up.
c)
Medium: Medium Power indicator (B) lights up.
d)
High: All three indicators (A, B & C) light up.
Always take care to turn the Power Select Switch to Off when not using the appliance.
SETTING TEMPERATURES
The Thermostat Knob is used to control the room temperature. Start with the knob turned fully anti-clockwise
(minimum temperature setting). If this setting is lower than the ambient room temperature, the fan will stay off,
no heat will be generated and the fan will not work (for medium & high power settings). To get the heater
working, turn the knob clockwise until the indicator(s) light up. At this point the fan will start running, the element
will start to produce heat and the fan will run (for medium & high power settings). The heater will continue to run
until the thermostat reaches the set temperature, at which point the indicator will turn off.
Generally, the best way of setting the correct room temperature is as follows:
a)
Set the control knob to maximum.
b)
Allow the room to heat up to the desired temperature.
c)
Adjust the control knob anti-clockwise until the indicator(s) turn off.
d)
Adjust the control knob clockwise until the indicator(s) turn back on & leave it there.
