Using the radiator
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.
Operation
When you have completed the installation, plug in and
switch on the mains supply.
The mains neon indicator light will glow showing that power
is available - see ‘A’ in
Fig. 3
and
Fig. 4
.
When the radiator is not in use, switch off the power supply
and pull the plug out from the socket.
Controls
Thermostat
(see ‘B’ in
Fig. 3
and
Fig. 4
)
The thermostat controls the heat output according to the
room temperature.
This ensures that the heater will not produce heat
unnecessarily when the room is warm.
To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat
knob clockwise until the desired temperature is reached.
Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat
knob up fully.
When the room has reached the desired temperature, turn
the thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat just
clicks off.
The heater will now automatically operate at this temperature.
Mechanical Timer (TI models only)
Note: The timer clock will only operate when the product is
connected to the mains supply
Operation modes
There are two operating modes on the timer, Manual
operation and Auto operation. The operation mode is set
using the slide switch on the timer - see
Fig 5
.
Manual operation
(Position - I )
This setting allows power to the product uninterrupted by
the timer, however other product controls will continue
to function as normal.
Auto operation
(Position - )
This setting allows the heater to be controlled by the
timer. The product will be switched on and off depending
on the pre-set timer program.
Setting the Time of Day
To set the time of day, rotate the timer dial clockwise
(indicated by the arrow) until the correct time of day is
opposite the reference mark -
see
Fig. 5
. The 24-hour clock is used ; e.g. 4pm is ‘16’
(16:00hrs).
Setting the ‘Auto’ ON and OFF times
To set the timer :
1.
Using your finger tip or the tip of a pencil, push in as
many segments as necessary around the dial, according to
the times you don’t require heat – see
Fig. 6
. Each segment
pushed in switches the heater OFF for that part of the hour.
All other segments will be ON. For example,
Fig. 6
shows
the timer set to switch the heater OFF between 11pm and
1.45am.
2.
You can select as many ON periods as you like, within the
24-hour day. The settings will repeat every day until changed.
3.
To change ON and OFF times, simply push in any ‘ON’
segments you wish to cancel and pull out new ‘ON’ segments
as required.
Switching to Auto
Ensure the thermostat and/or the heat selector are set for
the desired heat output.
Check that the clock shows the correct time of day. Set the
mode slide switch to , the heater will switch ON and OFF
according to the timer settings (see
Fig. 6
).
IMPORTANT NOTES
Remember to observe all safety warnings when operating
the heater on auto setting unattended or attended .
If the mains supply to the heater is interrupted, the timer
clock will stop until power is restored ; reset the time of day
to ensure correct ON and OFF times.
Safety – Overheat Protection - all models
The heater is fitted with a thermal safety cut-out which will switch
off the heater should it overheat for any reason. If the cut-out
operates it is the result of abnormal overheating, and the
Customer Services Helpline should be contacted for further
advice.
