Important Safety Advice
When using electrical appliances, basic
precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and
injury to persons, including the following:
If the appliance is damaged, check with the
supplier before installation and operation.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not use in the immediate surroundings of
a bath, shower or swimming pool.
Do not locate the heater immediately below
a fixed socket outlet or connection box.
The guard on this appliance conforms to
the requirements of BS 1945 (1971) and
satisfies the heating appliances (fireguards)
regulations 1973. The guard is to prevent
the risk of fire or injury from burns, and no
part of it should be permanently removed.
This appliance is not intended for use by
children or other persons without assistance
or supervision if their physical, sensory or
mental capabilities prevent them from using
it safely.
In the event of a fault unplug the heater.
Unplug the heater when not required for
long periods.
Keep the supply cord away from the front
of the heater.
Do not use this heater in series with a
thermal control, a program controller, a
timer or any other device that switches on
the heat automatically, since a fire risk exists
when the heater is accidentally covered or
displaced.
Ensure that furniture, curtains or other
combustible material are positioned no
closer than 1 metre from the heater.
Although this heater complies with safety
standards, we do not recommend its use on
deep pile carpets or on long hair type of rugs.
