Fig.1

Thank you for choosing this De’Longhi radiator. To get

the very best out of your new radiator it is advisable to

read these instructions before using it.This will ensure

that you gain optimum results and use the appliance

safely.

General instructions

Take the radiator out of its packing box and remove any

polstyrene pieces or any other packaging material that might

be lodged inside it. Make sure that the radiator has not been

damaged during transit and that the mains cable is in working

order. Do not operate the radiator if damaged.

“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.

Using for the first time

On using the radiator for the first time we advise that you turn

it on to the maximum power setting for at least 8 hours.

This is to eliminate the “new odour”, which is released by the

appliance. During this time ensure that the room is well

ventilated.

Electrical connection

- Before plugging the radiator into the mains, check that your

supply voltage is the same as that shown on the rating plate

of the appliance.

- If using more than one radiator at a time, it is important to

ensure that the ring main is adequate to cope with the

power requirements.

- It is important to ensure that the socket is adequately earthed.

- This radiator complies with EEC Directive 89/336 relating to

electromagnetic compatibility.

increase or decrease the temperature by 1°C. Keep either button

pressed down to move through the temperature quickly.

Electronic Climate Control

This heater has Electronic Climate Control which automatically

monitors and selects the ideal power setting to maintain your

chosen temperature. If the selected temperature is higher than

the actual room temperature, the appliance will start

automatically and rapidly heat the room until it reaches the

selected temperature. If maximum power has been selected the

unit will automatically maintain the temperature at a constant

level, by switching between maximum, medium, minimum power

and stand-by position (If the room temperature exceeds the

selected temperature level the radiator will switch in stand-by).

If medium power level has been selected using the “ON

MODE” button, the appliance will modulate between medium,

minimum power and stand-by position to maintain a selected

temperature.

Note: the display will always show the power setting

you have chosen, not the one it is currently working at.

Electrical requirements

Before using this appliance ensure that the voltage indicated

on the product corresponds with the main voltage in your

home, if you are in any doubt about your supply contact your

local electricity company.

The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug

having a fuse of 13 amp capacity. Should this plug not fit the socket

outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable

plug, following the procedure outlined below. Note: Such a plug

cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be

properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug

it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent danger. N.B. We

recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be

switched off when the machine is not in use. important: the wires in the

mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the

following code:

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not

correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in

your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the

terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth

symbol or coloured green or green and yellow.The wire which is

coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with

the letter N or coloured black.The wire which is coloured brown must

be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or

coloured red.When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are

securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains

lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin

socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this

operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be

replaced with a flexible cord of the same size. After replacement of a

fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost,

the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained.The

colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured

insert in the base of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug.Always

state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover. Only 13amp

replacement fuses which are asta approved to B.S. 1362 should be

fitted.This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the

suppression of radio interference.
