If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses the
risk of overheating and fire
. If the use of an extension cord is
unavoidable, then make sure it is an undamaged, approved extension cord with a
minimum diameter of 2.5 mm², suitable for a minimum permissible power of 2500
Watt (EK DELTA 2000) or 3500 Watt (EK DELTA 3000). To prevent overheating,
always fully extend the cord! To prevent the circuit overloading and fuses being
blown, make sure no other appliances are connected to the same socket or wired
to the same electrical circuit as the heater. Do not place the heater near, under or
directly opposite a socket and do not place it near an open fire or other heat
source.

smaller than 15 (EK DELTA 2000) or 22 (EK DELTA 3000)

venting or exhaust openings as this may lead to electric
shock, fire or damage.
