Description of parts
Assembling your Mini Convector Heater
Fitting the Feet
Before using this heater, the feet must be fitted to the unit. These are
attached to the base of the heater using the four self-tapping screws
provided, take care to ensure that they are located correctly in the holes at
either end of the base of the appliance:
Heat Indicator Lamp
Adjustable Thermostat
On/Off Switch
Air Inlet
Feet
Operating Your Mini Convector Heater
1. Insert the mains plug into the nearest mains socket.
2. Press the On/Off switch at the bottom right hand side to the on position
by pressing ‘I’, the switch will illuminate to show the unit is powered up.
3. Rotate the Thermostat clockwise to increase the room temperature,
rotate anticlockwise to decrease the temperature.
4. The heat indicator lamp will go on and off during use to show that the set
temperature is being maintained – this is quite normal.
Hint on setting the correct temperature
1. Set the heater to the desired heat setting as above.
2. Rotate the Thermostat to the maximum position and allow the room to
warm up. Once the desired room temperature has been reached turn
the Thermostat anticlockwise until the heater just clicks off then turn it
back up clockwise very slightly. The Thermostat will now maintain the
room temperature, if necessary, further increasing or decreasing the
thermostat control may be required to ‘fine tune’ the ideal room
temperature.

• Always disconnect the heater from the mains power supply before cleaning.
• Clean outside of the heater with a clean damp cloth. Never clean with harsh
