The Goldair Select 2000W Convector Heater (Model GSCV120) is designed for indoor household use. Before operating, ensure the feet are securely attached using the provided screws. The heater features three heat settings and a thermostat for temperature control. Always maintain a 1-metre clearance from all sides and never cover the unit to prevent fire hazards.
Assembly
The heater must not be used without the feet fitted. The unit is supplied with '1 way screws' for permanent installation of the feet.
- Remove all packaging and check for damage.
- Locate the 2 feet and 4 screws (usually taped to one of the feet or the plug head).
- Attach each foot to the base of the heater using 2 screws.
- Tip: Slightly angle the screws when inserting them; they will straighten as you tighten them.
Operating Your Heater
Ensure the heater is placed on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface. Once positioned, plug the unit into a mains outlet.
Heat Control Switches
- 750W: Low heat setting.
- 1250W: Medium heat setting.
- 2000W: High heat setting (750W and 1250W switches used together).
Thermostatic Control
- Rotate the thermostat knob clockwise to the maximum position.
- When the room reaches a comfortable temperature, slowly turn the knob anti-clockwise until the heater turns off (you will hear a click).
- The heater will now cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature.
Safety Precautions
- Do not cover: Covering the heater presents a fire risk and will permanently disable the unit via the safety fuse.
- Clearance: Keep all objects at least 1 metre away from the front, sides, and rear.
- No Timers: Do not use with external timers, programmers, or remote-control systems.
- Supervision: Never leave the heater unattended while in use.
- Environment: Do not use in small rooms occupied by persons unable to leave on their own, or near flammable liquids.
Care and Cleaning
Regular cleaning is required for trouble-free operation.
- Always unplug the heater and allow it to cool down completely before cleaning.
- Remove dust and fluff from air vents and grills using a vacuum cleaner.
- Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth (not wet) rinsed in hot soapy water.
- Do not use abrasive cleaning products, petrol, thinners, or polishing agents.
- Ensure the heater is completely dry before plugging it back in.
Safety Devices
The appliance includes two protection devices:
- Resettable Thermal Link: Automatically disconnects power if the heater overheats. It will reset after cooling down. If this happens, investigate the cause of overheating.
- Thermal Fuse: Permanently disconnects the appliance in case of severe overheating (non-resettable).
