Important

Before connecting the appliance check that the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to the mains voltage in your home.

Read these instructions carefully, in conjunction with the illustrations, before using the appliance.

The appliance is double insulated and need not be connected to an earthed mains outlet. If you wish to use an extension cord, a 2-wire type is suitable. However, ensure that the plugs and cord allow high power (16A-220V / 13A-240V AC).

If a reel type is employed, please unroll completely to prevent overheating.

It may happen, especially if the heater operates on position 2 and another electrical device is switched on as well, that a fuse or circuit breaker cuts off the mains power. In such a case, the fuse or circuit breaker may not allow this high electrical power.

You may connect one of the involved appliances to another circuit (employing another fuse or circuit breaker) or have the electrical installation revised by an authorized electrician.

The heater is not designed for use as the main form of heating. Use the appliance only for the intended use, i.e. extra heating in the house.

To avoid the risk of fire and electrical shock select a safe place for the heater. (See section “Safe positioning”.)

Do not insert any objects into the heater.

Ensure that children cannot play with the appliance.

Attention: the front grille gets hot during use.

Only touch the heater with dry hands.

Safe positioning

The heater must not be located immediately below a socket outlet.

Only use the fan heater when it is standing (fig. 1) or mounted (only type HD 3275, fig. 4-8) in an upright position.

For your own safety and that of others: water and electricity are a dangerous combination! When using the heater in the free standing mode do not place it in the immediate surroundings of a bath, a shower or a swimming pool.

Ensure that the appliance cannot fall into water (bath, wash basin, shower cubicle, etc.).

Do not use the heater in rooms with explosive gas (e.g. petrol) or while using inflammable glue or solvent (e.g. when glueing or varnishing parquet floors, PVC etc.).

Allow ample space around the heater.

A safe area to be left free is 50 cm / 20” at the top and at the sides, and 120 cm / 47” at the front.

Prevent overheating of the appliance by keeping the air inlet and outlet grilles free: do not hang anything in front of it or above it - otherwise there is a risk of fire.

Check the grilles from time to time for accumulated dust.

If overheating should occur, the built-in overheating safety device will switch off the appliance.

Keep the mains cord at a safe distance from the air inlet and outlet grilles.

Do not allow aerosols, inflammable substances or materials sensitive to heat to be in the flow of hot air.

Do not use the heater on extremely deep-pile carpets.
