WARNING: THE HEATER MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED BEFORE IT IS USED.
The fan heater has two knobs, one for the thermostat and one for the 60-minute timer.
The unit has two operating modes.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
ROOM WARM-UP WITH
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
From the position farthest left, turn the thermostat knob clockwise until a click-
ing noise is heard; the unit is turned on at a power of 1000 W and the pilot light
turns on.
The thermostat maintains the required room temperature by automatically turn-
ing on and off the fan heater. The more you turn the knob clockwise, the higher
the constant temperature will be. The thermostat maximum setting is about 86 °F
and the minimum setting is about 41 °F.
SETTING THE THERMOSTAT:
With a room temperature above 86 °F, it is normal for the thermostat to not turn
on the fan heater, even at the maximum setting.
With a room temperature too low (under 41 °F), it is normal for the thermostat to
maintain the unit on, even at the minimum setting.
TO OPTIMIZE THERMOSTAT USAGE:
- Set the thermostat to the maximum setting and operate the unit until a com-
fortable temperature is reached;
- Then, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise until a click is heard (the
unit is turned off);
-
Slightly turn (just a little) the thermostat knob clockwise;
- At this setting, the thermostat maintains the chosen room temperature.
QUICK ROOM WARM-UP
With the room temperature set at the required level, turn the timer knob to se-
lect the required operating time. The unit operates at 1800 W for the set time
to quickly heat the room and then maintains the room temperature set by the
thermostat at a power of 1000 W.
SAFETY IN CASE OF ABNORMAL OPERATION
In the event the unit overheats, the built-in protection system automatically de-
activates the heating elements and the motor, effectively stopping the fan heater
operation. In this case, the unit is inactive, but the warning lamp is on.
PROCEDURES TO BE FOLLOWED:
-
Turn off the fan heater and let it cool for about 15-20 minutes. It is imperative
to set the thermostat and the timer to the “OFF” position in order to re-start it;
-
Check if the dust filter is blocked and if so, clean and reinstall it;
- Turn the fan heater on again and check for proper operation. If you cannot get
your unit to work, return it to the original place of purchase or have it verified
by a certified electrician.
OPERATION
N.B.
The unit should be cleaned at least once a year. All other repairs and maintenance other than those described in this guide should be performed by qualified
service personnel. In order for the warranty to be valid, the unit must be cleaned regularly.
Cut off power supply at circuit breaker/fuse and wait for the unit to cool down before cleaning.
Use a soft rag for dusting. When cleaning, use only a damp rag and non-abrasive dish soap. Do not use abrasive or chemical cleaners because they may damage
the finish. If the unit is used in a very dusty location, use a vacuum brush to remove dust and other foreign objects from the grilles. Note that cigarette smoke could
yellow the discharge grill and that the best way to prevent it is to clean the unit on a regular basis.
N.B.
There is an electrical current linked to the unit even if the thermostat is set to off. This means that there is a risk of electric shock as long as the unit is energized.
Do not use cleaning products identified with these symbols:
-
Your unit has a filter protecting the heating elements against dust and dirt.
-
The filter can be removed and inserted from the right or the left side.
-
For optimal operation, we recommend cleaning the filter once every 2 months and making sure to reinstall it on the unit.
Regularly vacuum the front grill to remove dust. Accumulated dust and lint at the air outlet can reduce the unit’s per-
formance and damage it. To clean the unit, use a slightly damp cloth. Note that cigarette smoke can cause yellowing
of the unit, despite cleaning.
