IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE

When using electrical heaters, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk 

of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

IMPORTANT

 – The wall bracket supplied with the heater must be used.

IMPORTANT 

– All packaging should be disposed of in an appropriate manner.

OVERHEATING WARNING 

WARNING

 - In order to avoid overheating, do not cover or obstruct the heater. Do not place material 

or garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation around the heater, for instance by curtains 

or furniture, as this could cause overheating and a fire risk. NEVER cover or obstruct in any way the 

heat outlet slots at the top of the heater or the air inlet slots in the base of the heater. 

WARNING - THE SURFACES ON THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT.  The heater carries a warning ‘DO 

NOT COVER’ to alert the user to the risk of fire that exists if the heater is accidentally covered.
CAUTION - Some parts of this product can become very hot and cause burns. Particular 

attention has to be given where children and vulnerable people are present.

For  your  safety  this  heater  is  fitted  with  a  thermal  cut-out.  In  the  event  that  the  product 

overheats for some reason, the cut-out prevents excessive temperatures on the product by 

cutting the power to the heater. Once the heater has cooled down, it will reset automatically, 

it will continue to cycle on and off automatically until the reason for overheating is removed. 

The display screen may flash red to indicate the product has overheated. To reset the display, 

remove the obstruction and hold Enter for 10 seconds.

SUITABLE APPLICATIONS

WARNING -

 This heater is suitable for normal domestic household purposes and should not 

be used in any other type of environment. This product should only be used in the country 

where it was purchased from by a recognised commercial retailer. 

Do not use outdoors. 

Do not install if the product is damaged.

SERVICING AND REPAIRS

WARNING 

- Servicing and product repairs should only be undertaken by the manufacturers 

approved service agent or a similarly trained or qualified person, using only exact manufacturer 

approved spare parts.

PLEASE NOTE:

 Household dust, lit cigarettes, candles and oil burners, combined with the 

convection effect of electric heaters can cause significant soot deposits to build up on the 

surface directly above and to the sides of the heater. This is not a fault of the heater. Extensive 

burning of candles or smoking in the operating environment of this product can produce heavy 

discolouration within a few months of use.

OPERATING WARNINGS

IMPORTANT: 

Remember to observe all safety warnings and precautions when operating the 

heater on the automatic or timer modes, either attended or unattended since a fire risk exists 

when the heater is accidentally covered or displaced.

CAUTION: 

Do not use if the heater’s mains power lead is damaged. If the supply cord is 

damaged it must be replaced by the installer or an approved Dimplex service partner.
