Quick guide from the manual
The Flama 2357FL is an oil-filled radiator designed for domestic use in well-insulated spaces. It features adjustable power levels, a thermostat, and built-in safety mechanisms including tip-over and overheating protection.
Description of the device
- 1. Indicator light
- 2. Thermostat control knob
- 3. Power level selector
- 4. Cord wrap
- 5. Heating elements
- 6. Feet with wheels
Assembly
Before first use, the wheels must be attached:
- Turn the radiator upside down on a safe, stable surface to prevent damage to the finish or floor.
- Place the wheeled feet on the radiator, positioning the U-shaped bolts between the outermost elements on each side.
- Tighten the nuts firmly to secure the feet.
- For the 7-element model, ensure the front set of wheels is adjusted on the lower part of the front panel using the provided screws.
Operation
Turning on and adjusting:
- Place the radiator in an upright position on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there are no flammable materials within a 1-meter radius.
- Turn the thermostat knob to the MIN position and the power selector to 0.
- Unwind the power cord completely and plug it into a power outlet.
- Select the desired heat level using the power selector: Low, Medium, or High.
- Turn the thermostat knob clockwise to MAX; the indicator light will turn on.
- Once the room reaches a comfortable temperature, slowly turn the thermostat knob counter-clockwise until the indicator light turns off. The radiator will now cycle to maintain this temperature.
Turning off:
- Turn the thermostat knob to MIN and the power selector to 0.
- Unplug the device and allow it to cool down before storing.
Safety features
- Tip-over protection: The radiator has a safety switch that automatically turns off the unit if it falls over or is tilted at an excessive angle. It will resume operation once placed back in a vertical position.
- Overheating protection: If the unit overheats, it will shut off automatically. Unplug the device, wait 30 minutes for it to cool, and remove any obstructions (e.g., items covering the radiator). Check for damage before restarting.
Maintenance and cleaning
- Always turn off, unplug, and let the radiator cool before cleaning.
- Clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Use a mild cleaning agent if necessary.
- Do not allow water or liquids to enter the radiator.
- Do not use abrasive detergents.
- Store in a dry, clean place.
