Fitting The Castors WARNING The radiator must only be operated with the wheels and castors fitted and in an upright position. The castors must be fitted to the control panel and between the last and second last fin on the opposite end, as shown in Fig.1. 1. To fit the castors, turn the radiator upside down on a carpet or other soft surface to avoid damage. Warning: The radiator is heavy – ensure that it is supported to prevent it from toppling. Ask a second person to help with this if necessary. 2.
Positioning Select the position for the heater ensuring there is clearance from any furniture and fittings of at least 300mm above the heater and 150mm each side and 300mm from the control and end panel. We recommend maximising the clearance where possible. NOTE: The radiator is designed for operation on an AC electricity supply, and is only suitable for domestic use and similar indoor locations. Tips • The radiator is fitted with castors and a handle for ease of movement.
Operation IMPORTANT - OBJECTS OR CLOTHING MUST NOT BE PLACED ON THIS HEATER. Before using the heater ensure that all warnings and instructions have been read carefully. To activate the heater simply plug it in. Neon indicator lights located at the control area will illuminate when the appliance is plugged into the mains. This indicates the appliance is energised and ready to use.
Operation Thermostat The Thermostat, see Fig.2 controls the heat output according to the room temperature. This ensures that the heater will not produce heat unnecessarily when the room is warm. 1. To set the temperature you require, turn the thermostat knob clockwise until the required setting is reached. Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat knob up fully. 2.
Timer Model ELECTROMECHANICAL TIMER (TIF models) Fig. 4 Setting the time of day To set the time of day, rotate the timer dial clockwise (indicated by the arrow) until the correct time of day is opposite the reference mark - see Fig.4. The 24-hour clock is used; e.g. time shown for 4pm is '16' (16:00hrs). Operation Modes Set the operation mode using the slide switch on the timer - see Fig.5: Position I - Manual operation This setting allows power to the heater uninterrupted by the timer settings.
Timer Model Setting the 'Auto' ON and OFF times To set the timer: 1. Using your fingertip or tip off a pencil, push in as many segments as necessary around the dial, according to the times you don't require heat - see Fig.5. Each segment pushed in switches the heater OFF for that part of the hour All other segments will be ON. For example, Fig.5 shows the timer set to switch the heater OFF between 11pm and 1.45am. 2. You can select as many ON periods as you like, within the 24-hour day.
Cleaning Over time, dust can accumulate on the heater which can effect performance. It is recommended to clean the unit at least once a month. 1. Turn the unit OFF and disconnect the appliance from the power supply. 2. Remove any dust build up with a soft brush. 3. Wipe the surface of the unit with a soft damp cloth. Mild detergent can be used for any stubborn marks. IMPORTANT The control panel and other parts must not come into contact with water or any other liquids.
