Cleaning and maintenance
Keep the fan heater clean. The build-up of dust and dirt in the appliance is one
of the commonest causes of overheating. You should therefore remove such
dirt regularly. Before cleaning or performing maintenance, switch the fan
heater off, remove the plug from the socket and allow to cool.
• Clean the outside of the appliance regularly with a dry or very slightly
moistened cloth. Do not use any abrasive soap, spray, detergents or scouring
agents, wax, glazing agents or other chemical solutions.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to carefully remove dirt and dust from the grilles and
check that the air inlets and outlets are clean. When cleaning these, take care
not to touch or damage any internal parts.
• The fan heater does not contain any other components that require
maintenance.
• When the heating season ends, carefully pack the fan heater away, where
possible in its original packaging. Store it upright in a cool, dry and dusty-free
place.
• When the appliance reaches the end of its useful life, do not dispose of it in
the domestic waste. Take it instead to a local collection point for electrical
equipment. Care will then be taken to recycle any re-usable materials.
