WARNINGS AND SAFEGUARDS
OVERVIEW OF YOUR GOLDAIR FULL SIZE OIL COLUMN HEATER
CONTROL BUTTONS
Your Goldair Oil Column Heater is designed to provide stable background room heating suitable for all

OPERATING YOUR HEATER
Before operation place the product on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Plug the power cord into a
standard 230/240 volt AC electrical outlet.
• To turn the heater on set the MODE switch to I.
• For LOW heat turn the power setting knob to the I position.
• For MEDIUM heat turn the power setting knob to the II position.
• For HIGH heat turn the power setting knob to the III position.
THERMOSTAT
• Once you have selected the desired power setting, turn the thermostat control clockwise as far as it
will go and the indicator light will illuminate.
• Leave the thermostat control at its maximum position until the desired room temperature is reached.
• Slowly turn the thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the heater shuts off. (Indicator light goes off.)
• Leave thermostat setting at this position. The heater automatically cycles on and off to maintain the
chosen room temperature, (the indicator light also cycles on and off). As long as a power setting is
selected (and there is power supplied to the heater) the heater operates.
TIMER
• This heater will not operate unless the timer has been set.
• Turn the outer dial of the timer in a clockwise direction until the time of the day (24-hour clock)
corresponds with the triangular marking. One complete turn of the dial corresponds to 24 hours.
• There are 96 “riders”, positioned around the dial, each rider represents 15 minutes. When the “riders”
are pushed out the heater will turn on when they travel past the triangle marking on the casing. You
need to push out the riders to correspond with the time the heater is to turn on.
