Preparations for use
Unpack the appliance and turn it upside down, resting it on the protective polystyrene packaging.
Check that the power cable is intact and the appliance has not been damaged during transport.
Do not use the appliance if it is damaged.
“EASY WHEEL” SYSTEM
The appliance is fitted with an “easy wheel” system allowing the wheels to be used immediately.
Turn the radiator upside down and rest it on a piece of cloth or other soft surface to avoid damaging the paint. Open the wheels completely by rotating them outwards (fig. 1). Turn the radiator upright.
ON/OFF SWITCHES
INDICATOR LIGHTS
ECONOMISER
For economy of use, the switches can be used singly:
-button in position “I” only = minimum power (light on)
-button in position “II” only = medium power (light on)
-buttons in both positions “I” and “II” = maximum power (lights on)
fig. 1
IMPORTANT
When in use, the radiator should always be kept vertical (wheels at the bottom, controls at the top).
Any other position could be dangerous!
1. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Position the radiator under the coldest window in the room or wherever else you want.
The radiator will reduce the effects of cold draughts to a minimum.
The appliance must not be positioned directly underneath a fixed power point.
Do not use the appliance in rooms with a surface area of less than 4 m2.
The radiator must be connected to a perfectly functioning socket with correct poles.
Avoid contact between clothing, household linen, furnitu- re, inflammable material and the socket providing power to the radiator.
2.TURNING ON MODELS WITH TWO SWITCHES Turn the thermostat dial clockwise to maximum. Turn on both switches.
The lights on the switches remain on irrespective of the cycle set by the thermostat.
When the room reaches the required temperature, turn the dial anticlockwise slowly until you hear a click.
The appliance will come on and go off automatically to maintain the required temperature.
3. USING THE THERMOSTAT
The thermostat operates on the basis of room temperature and not radiator temperature.
Turn the thermostat dial anticlockwise towards the lower numbers to reduce the temperature; turn it clockwise towards the higher numbers to raise the temperature.
FREEZE PREVENTION MODE
Turn the thermostat dial to the
position and press both switches.
The appliance maintains a room temperature of about 5°C, preventing the pipes from freezing while saving energy. In models with timer, push the teeth inwards.
PLEASE NOTE
To turn the radiator off completely, place both switches in the OFF position.
4. COMFORTEMP BUTTON (WHEN PRESENT)
With the “COMFORTEMP” button and both switches pres- sed, the appliance is automatically set to reach and main- tain what is considered to be the optimum temperature.
A green light comes on to indicate activation of “COMFOR- TEMP" mode.
To deactivate COMFORTEMP mode and return to manual thermostat operation, press the (COMFORTEMP) button again.
