If the overheating protection switches the heater off, you must set the main switch to O (off),
unplug and allow the heater to cool down. Remove and/or amend the cause of overheating
and reuse the heater as normal. If you cannot find a cause and overheating recurs, stop
using the heater, and take it in for inspection/repair.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Keep the heater clean. Deposits of dust and dirt in the appliance are a common cause of
overheating so these should be removed regularly. Switch off the heater, remove the plug
from the socket and allow the heater to cool down before cleaning or carrying out
maintenance work.
Wipe the outside of the heater regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use
aggressive soaps, sprays, cleaners or abrasives, waxes, polishes or chemical solutions!
Use a vacuum cleaner to carefully remove any dust and dirt from the grills and ensure
that the air intake and outlet openings are clean. Be careful not to touch or damage any
internal parts during cleaning!
The heater contains no other parts which need maintenance.
At the end of the season, store the cleaned heater in the original packaging if possible.
Store it upright in a cool, dry and dust-free place.
Do not dispose of heater with household waste when it becomes worn or damaged
beyond repair. Take it to your local authority's collection point for electrical appliances
where any reusable materials will be collected and redistributed.
