IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using any electrical appliance, some basic safety pre-
cautions should always be observed to reduce the risk of re,
electric shock, and/or injury to persons. Read all instructions
carefully before using the appliance. Specically:
Danger!
Failure to observe the warning may result in life
threatening injury by electric shock.
- Do not operate the appliance with a damaged
cord or plug, after faulty operation, or when
it has been dropped or damaged in any way.
Contact the nearest authorized service facility
for examination, electrical or mechanical ad-
justment, or repair.
- Never position the appliance where it may fall
into a bathtub or come in contact with water.
- Never use this heating appliance in the imme-
diate vicinity of swimming pool.
- Do not insert or allow foreign objects to get
into the air intake or air outlet grille, as this
may cause electric shock or re, or damage
the appliance.
- Make sure that the plug is fully inserted into
the outlet. Wall outlets may deteriorate with
time, so check the plug periodically for signs
of overheating or deformation. If the outlet
has deteriorated, stop using it and have it re-
paired.
Important!
Failure to observe the warning could result in in-
jury or damage to the appliance.

concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should
be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
- Always disconnect the plug from the power
outlet when the appliance is not in use.
- Do not use the appliance outdoors.
- Do not run the power cord under carpeting.
Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners,
or the like. Keep the cord away from any pas-
sageways where it could be tripped over.

take or air outlet grille in any way. Do not use
the appliance on soft surfaces, such as beds,
where the openings may become blocked.
- Use this appliance only as described in this
manual. Any other use not indicated by the
manufacturer may cause re, electric shock,
or injury to persons.
- To prevent current overload and blown fuses,
make sure that no other appliance is plugged
into the same outlet or into another outlet
wired into the same circuit.
- If the supply cord is damaged, to reduce the
risk of malfunction it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent, or a licensed
and qualied professional.
- Do not use this appliance with an extension
cord or outlet strip. Connect the appliance di-
rectly to a suitable outlet.
-
Make sure that the plug is fully inserted into
the outlet. Wall outlets may deteriorate with
time, so check the plug periodically for signs of
overheating or deformation. If the outlet has
deteriorated, stop using it and have it repaired.
- Do not place the heater near a bed because
objects such as pillows or blankets can fall o
the bed and be ignited by the heater.
- Use the appliance always and only in the ver-
tical position.

than 43 square feet (4 m²).
Danger of burns!!
Failure to observe the warning could result in
burns or scalds.
- This appliance gets very hot when in use. To
prevent burns, do not touch hot surfaces with
5
bare skin. Use the handle when moving the
appliance. Keep all ammable materials, such
as furniture, pillows, bedding, paper, clothing,
and curtains at least 3 feet (90 cm) from the
front and top of the appliance also avoid con-
tact with the sides and back.
- Do not wrap the cord around the appliance
immediately after use.
- Do not cover the appliance while it is func-
tioning in order to avoid overheating and the
risk of re.
- The internal parts of the appliance can be-
come very hot or produce sparks during op-
eration. Do not use the appliance in areas
where gasoline, paints, or other ammable
liquids are used or stored.
- It is normal for heater’s plug and cord to feel
warm to the touch. However, an excessively
hot or deformed plug or cord is not normal
and may be the result of a defective electri-
cal outlet. Defective outlets must be replaced
before using the heater. Plugging the heater
into a worn outlet may result in overheating
of the power cord or may cause the risk of re.
- Do not use the appliance to dry laundry, and
do not obstruct the air intake and outlet
grilles (danger of overheating).
- Do not operate the appliance in contact with
walls, furniture, curtains, etc.

During this time, ventilate the room thor-
oughly to eliminate the “new” smell released
by the appliance. It is completely normal for
the appliance to emit “creaking” sounds the
rst time it is run.
- Do not open the appliance. No user-service-
able parts inside.
- Before storing the appliance, check it is com-
pletely o and the cable is unplugged. At this
point wrap the cord around the base. Do not
store in a dusty room. The room temperature
should be between 32-86°F (0-30°C). Do not

ances, overheating of the outlet may occur
even if it has not occured with the use of other
appliances.

USE
Electrical connection
Before plugging into the outlet, make sure the voltage of your
outlet supply corresponds to the value V indicated on the ap-
pliance and that the socket and power line are appropriate
for the load required.
Installation
If the appliance is installed in a room with bath or shower, re-
spect the “safety distances” shown in g. 1 and always install
away from taps, basins, showers, etc.
Functioning and use
Make sure the appliance is o before plugging into the outlet.
1. Plug the appliance into the outlet. The light comes on.
Your appliance has a timer, see the section “Models with

4. Low power operation: turn the function selector to
position 1 (the fan operates at minimum).
5. Medium power operation: turn the function selector
to position 2 (the fan operates at medium).
6. High power operation: turn the function selector to
position 3 (the fan operates at maximum).

reached the required temperature, turn the thermostat dial
slowly counter clockwise until you hear a click and the fan
goes o. The thermostat will then keep room temperature at
the selected level automatically.
Frost prevention mode
With the function selector in position 3 and the thermostat
dial in position , the appliance maintains room tempera-
ture at about 42 degrees F (5°C), preventing freezing with
minimal energy consumption.
24 HOUR TIMER
After setting the thermostat and function selector to the re-
quired position, to programme heating, proceed as follows:
- turn the timer disk clockwise until the pointer on the
timer s lines up with the number corresponding to the
current time.
- set the times when you want the appliance to operate
by pushing the teeth towards the outside. Each tooth
corresponds to 30 minutes.
The radiator will now function automatically each day at the
times set.
