• DO NOT COVER THE HEATER. Do not place

material or garments on the heater, or obstruct the

air circulation around the heater, for instance by

curtains or furniture, as this could cause

overheating and a fire risk.

infirm unsupervised in the vicinity of the heater.

THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE READ

CAREFULLY

• Do not use this heater in series with a thermal

control, a program controller, a timer or any other

device that switches on the heater automatically,

since a fire risk exists when the heater is

accidentally covered or displaced.

AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

General

Unpack the heater carefully and retain the packaging

for possible future use, in the event of moving or

returning the fire to your supplier. • Ensure that furniture, curtains or other combustible

material are positioned no closer than 1 metre

from the heater.

This model is designed to be free standing and is

normally positioned against a wall.

In the event of a fault unplug the heater.

A choice of 1kW or 2kW heat output is provided by the

fan heater, which is concealed beneath the unit. Unplug the heater when not required for long

periods.

(Models FIF15 and MRL15, 750W or 1.5kW output). • Keep supply cord away from the front of the

heater.

A minimum distance of 1 metre (39”) must be

maintained between the front of the heater and any

surrounding furniture, overhanging curtains or other

obstructions.

• Although this heater complies with safety

standards, we do not recommend its use on deep

pile carpets or on long hair type of rugs.

• The appliance must be positioned so that the plug

is accessible.

Before connecting the heater check that the supply

voltage is the same as that stated on the heater. • If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced

by the manufacturer or service agent or a similarly

qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
