INSTALLATION
 After unpacking, check that all parts of the appliance are present; if in doubt, do not
use and contact a qualified technician. The packaging materials (plastic bags,
polystyrene, metal staples, etc.) must not be left within reach of children, as they are
potentially hazardous.
 Before connecting the appliance, check that the voltage on the data plate matches
that of the electric system. In the event of incompatibility between the plug point and
the appliance's plug, have the plug replaced with a suitable model by a qualified
professional, who should ensure that the cord is suitable for the power rating of the
appliance (10A). Check that other appliances with high absorption are not connected
to the power line to avoid overloading and fire hazards. The use of adaptors or
extensions is generally not advisable; if it is necessary to use them, they must comply
with safety regulations and the total current (amps) must not be rated lower than the
maximum current of the appliance.
 Before each use, check that the appliance is in good condition and that the power
cord is not damaged: if in doubt consult a qualified professional.
 Ensure that the power cord is correctly positioned and does not come into contact
with hot parts or sharp edges, or become wound around the appliance itself and is
not twisted.
 Do not hang or even lean the appliance against any walls.
 Place the fan heater far from any other source of heat, from flammable material
(curtains, tapestries, etc.), from flammable gases or explosive objects (spray cans)
and from materials that can be deformed by heat. Make sure there is 120 cm of free
space in front of the fan heater and 50cm free space on both sides and behind it.
 The surface where the appliance is used must be stable, spacious (do not use on
shelves), level (since the appliance could tip over) and heat resistant.
USING THE APPLIANCE
First use: run the appliance to eliminate the "new smell" and any oil residue from the
manufacturing process for at least 10/15 minutes. During this operation, ventilate the
room well to eliminate the "new smell" that is given off by the appliance.
The appliance comes with a thermostat, selector switch, indicator light, tipping switch
and safety device:
- the selector switch controls the following:
"0" = off; " "= fan on; "
- the thermostat adjusts the ambient temperature, and is greater when the selector is
turned towards the maximum position (clockwise direction): once the temperature
has been reached, it will be kept constant, while setting it to the lines in between
causes the element to come on at intervals.
- The indicator light turns on and off when the appliance reaches the set
temperatures.
- The base has an anti-tipping switch, which allows the appliance to run while the fan
heater is correctly positioned (when correctly placed you will hear it "click") but
stops operation if the appliance tips over.
- safety device: when included it stops operation in the event of overheating. To
restore operation, remove the plug from the mains and wait for it to cool (about 20
minutes) and insert the plug into the plug point and turn on again.
