precautions should always be followed to

reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and

injury to persons, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using this

heater.

2. If your radiator is equipped with a

polythene tape used as carry handle,

remove it before connecting applian-

ce to the outlet.

3. This heater is hot when in use. To

avoid burns, do not let bare skin

touch hot surfaces. Use handle when

moving this heater. Keep combustible

materials, such as furniture, pillows,

bedding, papers, clothes, and cur-

tains at least 3 feet (90 cm) from the

front and top of the heater and keep

them away from the sides and rear.

4. Extreme caution is necessary when

any heater is used by or near children

and whenever the heater is left opera-

ting and unattended.

5. Always unplug heater when not in

use.

6. If the supply cord is damaged, it must

be replaced by the manufacturer, its

service agent or similarly qualified

persons in order to avoid a hazard.

7. Do not operate any heater with a

damaged cord or plug or after the

heater malfunctions, has been drop-

ped or damaged in any manner. If

heater has leaked any oil, disconti-

nue using the heater and contact the

service center as indicated in the

instruction leaflet. Return heater to

authorized service facility for exa-

mination, electrical or mechanical

adjustment, or repair.

8. Do not use outdoors. Household use

only.

9. This heater is not intended for use in

bathrooms, laundry areas and similar

indoor locations. Never locate heater

where it may fall into a bathtub or

other water container.

10. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do

not cover cord with throw rugs, run-

ners, or the like. Arrange cord away

from traffic area and where it will

not be tripped over.

11. To disconnect heater, turn controls to

off, then remove plug from outlet.

12. Connect to properly polarized outlets

only.

13. Do not insert or allow foreign objects

to enter any ventilation or exhaust

opening as this may cause an electric

shock, fire, or damage the heater.

14.To prevent a possible fire, do not

block air intakes or exhaust in any

manner. Do not use on soft surfaces,

like a bed, where openings may beco-

me blocked.

15. A heater has hot or arcing or

sparking parts inside. Do not use it

in areas where gasoline, paint, or

flammable liquids are used or sto-

red.

16. Use this heater only as described in

this manual. Any other use not

recommended by the manufacturer

may cause fire, electric shock, or

injury to persons.

17. To prevent overload and blown fuses,

be sure that no other appliance is

plugged into the same outlet (recep-

tacle) or into another outlet (recepta-

cle) wired into the same circuit.

18. It is normal for the heater’s plug and

cord to feel warm to the touch. A

plug or cord which becomes hot to

the touch or becomes distorted in

shape may be a result of a worn elec-

trical outlet. Worn outlets or recepta-

cles should be replaced prior to

further use of the heater. Plugging

heater into a worn outlet /receptacle/

may result in overheating of the

power cord or fire.

19. Do not use an extension cord becau-

se it may overheat and cause a risk

of fire. However, if you have to use

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

HOW TO USE YOUR HEATER

“EASY WHEEL”SYSTEM

Turn the radiator upside-down on a rug or a soft surface in order to prevent damaging the paint

finish. Fully unfold the castors by turning them outwards (Fig. 1).

Turn the radiator back to its upright position.

CAUTION

Always operate the heater in upright position only (wheels on the bottom, controls on top). Any

other position could create hazardous situation!

an extension cord, the cord shall be

No. 14 AWG minimum size and

rated not less than 1875 watts, and

has to be used only for supplying

power to this heater.

20. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted

into an appropriate outlet. Please

remember that outlets also deterio-

rate due to aging and continuous use:

check periodically if signs overhea-

ting or deformations are evidenced

by the plug. Do not use the outlet and

CALL your electrician.

21. Check that neither the appliance nor

the power cable have been damaged

in any way during transportation.

22. Make sure that no pieces of polystyre-

ne or other packaging material have

been left between one element of the

appliance and another. It may be

necessary to pass over the appliance

with a vacuum cleaner.

23. When switching on the appliance for

the first time, allow it to run at full

power for about two hours to get rid

of the unpleasant smell. Make sure

that the room in which the appliance

is located is well ventilated during

this operation. It is normal for the

appliance to emit small cracking

sounds when you turn it on for the

first time.

CAUTION: to prevent electric shock

match wide blade of plug to wide

slot, then fully insert.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For Household use only

fig. 1

1. LOCATION

Place heater on the floor beneath the coldest window in the room, or any other location. Your

heater will reduce the effect of cold drafts. The heater should not be placed immediately below a

power outlet. Do not use this radiator in rooms with a floor area of less than 43 square feet (4

sq.m.).

2. CONNECTION

The radiator should be connected to a properly polarized A/C 120 V household outlet in perfect

working conditions. Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and flammable material away from

the heater’s wall outlet.

3. TURNING ON TWO-SWITCH MODELS

Turn the thermostat clockwise to its maximum position. Push down both switches. The switch

lights stay on independently of the thermostat cycling. When room reaches the desired tempera-

ture, turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise very slowly and carefully until you hear a click.

This should set your heater to maintain the desired temperature by cycling on and off as requi-

red. Note: The room may require up to an hour to reach the desired temperature depending on

room size and conditions.

4. USE OF THERMOSTAT

The thermostat operates according to room air temperature, rather than radiator temperature.

Turning it counter-clockwise to smaller numbers would decrease the temperature; clockwise to

greater numbers would increase the temperature.

Antifreeze function

Turn the thermostat dial to the position and push the switches on. The appliance will maintain

a minimum room temperature of approximately 42°F (5°C), thus preventing freezing while con-

serving energy.

REMINDER

To completely shut the heater off, MIN/MED switches must be set in the “0” position.

Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade

wider than the other). There is only one way it can be plugged into a power supply. This is a

safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try again by turning it the

other way. If it would still not go in, it is probably due to an obsolete outlet which should be

replaced. Do not tamper with the plug or outlet to defeat the purpose of this safety mechanism.

WATT ECONOMIZER

To conserve energy, use the Min. or Med. position

after the unit has reached the desired operating tem-

perature

With pilot lights ON, the heater is ON!

A safety device

A safety device switches the heater off in the event of overheating. To restart the heater, call the

nearest Service center.

5. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Always unplug the heater from the power outlet and allow the radiator to cool. Wipe radiator with

a soft damp cloth; do not use detergents and abrasives. Should the radiator not be in use over a

certain length of time, roll the cable around the holder and store it in a dry place. This appliance

has been built to last for many years of trouble-free service. In case of malfunction or doubt, do

not try to repair the heater by yourself: this might increase the risk of fire and electric shock. Call
