SETTING THE TIMER
The timer on this heater is a mechanical timer. When operating, it runs in a 24 hour cycle (note: a power failure will
delay the timer cycle, and it will need to be manually adjusted).
The Timer Switch (J) allows the timer to be disabled (G), allows the timer to control the heater (H) or disables the
heater (I) completely.
To run the heater with the timer, first disable the heater and allow it to cool.
On the outer ring of the timer (F), there are 96 small switches (each representing 15 minutes of a 24 hour day).
Start by pushing all switches inwards (this represents the heater being turned off). Starting at midnight (24), slowly
work around the outer ring in an anti-clockwise direction, pressing the switches outwards for the times the heater
needs to be on (the previous diagram shows a timer set to switch on between 7am & 9am). Once the 24 hour cycle
has been finished, adjust the position of the outer ring (anti-clockwise) until the current time (to the nearest 15
minutes) matches the current time (as pointed to by the small arrow head (K). Place the heater back into the correct
position (if on feet) and set the power setting and thermostat (these can be adjusted at any time). Adjust the Timer
Switch to the Timer Run position (H).
Note that the running the timer so that it turns on when nobody is home should be avoided as this represents a fire
hazard. The timer is best for situations like warming a room before getting up in the morning. Periodically check the
settings of the timer have not been altered.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
This heater can either be mounted to a wall or used with the supplied feet. Please note the following safety
warnings:
This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Do not move the
heater when hot (when not wall mounted). Keep combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding,
papers, clothes and curtains at least 1 meter from the front & top of the heater and keep them at least 0.5
meters from the sides and rear. Do not cover. Always move the heater by picking it up by the plastic sides.
The heater has hot parts inside. It must NOT be used in potentially dangerous locations such as flammable,
explosive, chemical-laden or wet atmospheres. This heater is intended for general indoor domestic use
ONLY.
This heater is not intended for use in wet or damp locations, such as a bathroom or any area containing a
bath, shower, wash basin or close to water or damp items. Never locate a heater where it may fall into a
bathtub or other water container. It must be positioned or installed so that the controls cannot be touched
by a person in a bath or shower. Do not immerse the power cord in any liquid (including water).
Never install or use the heater directly below a wall socket.
When fixing on a wall, the heater must be level, securely fixed & at the correct height (check with local
authorities if unsure). Stick to the recommended minimum distances between it and any barrier/wall to the
sides, bottom or top to prevent overheating or damage.
FITTING FEET
Make sure the heater is unplugged
from the mains power. Turn the heater
upside down & rest on a protective
surface. Take each foot and slide the
tabs into the slots at the bottom of the
heater (the 2 screw holes should match
up). Take the four supplied 10mm
screws and screw the feet to the heater
base (do not over tighten). Note: The
heater gets hot when in use, so it is best
not to move when in use. If it must be
moved, use the plastic side panels.
