Dear customer!
Thank you for your good choice and purchase of Timberk
domestic electric convector. It will serve you for a long time.
Timberk domestic electric convector is designed to heat and
create a comfortable environment indoors dеgle-phase power
supply wiring. This heating unit is easy-to-use and easy-to-
install, and it is efficient and features operating economy due
to minimum electric power losses, improved heat transfer and
maximum comfort heat flow distribution.
Please, read this operation manual carefully prior to use of the convector.
This operation manual contains important information regarding your
safety, as well as recommendations on the proper operation of the unit and
its maintenance.
Save this operation manual together with the guarantee card, cash register
receipt, if possible, cardboard box and packing material.
The purchased convector can slightly differ from the one, described in the
manual, but that doesn’t affect the methods of its use and operation.
A number of precautions is to be observed upon operation of the fan
heater. Improper operation as a result of ignoring precautions may harm
health of the user and other people, as well as damage their property.
1. Read all instructions prior to operation of the convector.
2. When the convector is operating it heats up to a very high temperature.
To prevent burns, do not touch hot surfaces of the unit by hands or
other parts of the body.
3. The unit must be placed away from flammable and easily deformable
objects.
4. Make sure that the unit’s case and the heating element cooled down
prior to the unit is dismantled and packed for long-term storage.
5. When the unit is not operated for a long time, store it factory-packaged

1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2. PRECAUTIONS
3. PERFORMANCE PARAMETERS
12. When the unit is switched on and operating, do not touch its surface
and the surface of the control block by wet hands and any parts of the
body.
13. Do not switch on the convector if its power cord or plug is damaged.
To prevent electric shock, the damaged power cord must be repaired
only in authorized service centers of the manufacturer and by skilled
specialists.
14. Never try to repair it on your own. This may harm your health and affect
the unit’s guarantee maintenance.
15. Do not use the convector in open spaces outside.
16. It is forbidden to install and use the unit in bathrooms, shower rooms
or swimming pools, in the very places, where water jets or drops may
contact its surface directly when it is switched on.
17. Do not lay the convector’s power cord under carpets and do not
press it by furniture. Lay the power cord in such a manner so that it is
impossible to trip over it.
18. To switch off the unit, set the heating power mode selector into position
“OFF” for TEC.PS1 M...IN series units you also need to press and
hold button on the control panel. Never pull the power cord and do
not unplug it abruptly.
19. Do not thrust fingers and prevent entering of foreign objects into any
ventilation, air intakes or air outlets, since it may cause electric shock
or damage of the convector.
20. The convector contains internal hot and sparkling components. Do
not use the convector in places, where petroleum, paint or any other
flammable liquids are used or stored.
21. Use this convector only in the manner, set forth in this manual. Any
other use, not recommended by the manufacturer, can result in a fire,
electric shock or injuring of people.
22. By no means clean the convector when it is connected to the mains.
Do not submerge the convector into water. Never pull the power cord.
23. To prevent overheating and fire, as well as damage of internal electric
mains, do not change the length of the power cord and do not connect
the unit through an electric extender, if its parameters comply with the
unit’s power and if it is do not used by other power energy consumers.
24. For normal operation of the unit the mains voltage must be sufficient
and its technical parameters must be in strict compliance with technical
parameters indicated on the unit. If necessary, verify characteristics of
your mains at the power energy supplier.
25. Install and operate the unit vertically only. It is forbidden to use the unit
in a horizontal or inclined position.
26. The unit must be installed in such a way so that the control panel would
be unavailable for a person, situated directly in a bathroom (in contact
with water) or a person taking a shower.
27. It is forbidden to install the unit directly under an outlet or under a laid
electric cable when outgoing heat flows come in contact with it. It may
cause their overheating and create an emergency.
28. The unit is not intended to be used by people (including children) with
limited physical, sensory or intellectual capabilities, having insufficient
experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or received
instructions on how to use the unit from a person, responsible for their
safety. It is necessary to be careful that children do not play with the
convector.
Operation principle
Cold air in the lower part of a room at the level of feet goes through the
convector’s heating element. Expanding at the moment of heating, heat
flow runs upwards through the outlet grill louver and smoothly spreads
along the room. At that the flow’s direction, set by louver’s inclination,
creates a favorable, accelerated circulation of warm air inside a room, not
concentrating it on walls and windows.
Key features
1. Combination of a convection effect (hence the name “convector”) with
mild thermal radiation makes the heater an economical thermal energy
source, significantly increasing the number of its followers year by year.
2. Simple and efficient ways to control a temperature mode.
3. A high-precision controlled thermostat.
4. Fast self-repayment due to a high performance factor and speed of
reaching the set temperature.
5. Ease of installation, operating reliability and ease of maintenance.
6. Two-mode heating for power energy saving.
7. A built-in air ionizer.
8. Support legs for the convector to be installed in any convenient place.
9. A built-in carrying handle.
