Setup and installation

Before switching on for the first time, remove all packaging material. Ensure the appliance is placed on a stable, horizontal surface.

Operation

Use the mode selector to choose between the following settings:

  • 0: Fan and heating elements off
  • Fan icon: Cold air (fan only)
  • I: Warm air (fan + one heating element)
  • II: Hot air (fan + both heating elements)

Use the thermostat to set the desired ambient temperature. In modes I and II, the appliance will cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature. The oscillation switch allows the unit to move within a 90-degree angle for wider heat distribution.

Cleaning and maintenance

Clean the appliance at least once a month:

  1. Switch off and unplug the unit.
  2. Allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the air inlet and outlet openings.
  4. Wipe the exterior with a slightly moistened cloth. Do not use aggressive cleaners or allow water to enter the unit.

Troubleshooting

If the appliance does not heat, check the overheating protection and fan mode. If the indicator light is off, check the power supply and mode selector position. If the overheating protection activates frequently, clean the air inlets and outlets.

Safety warnings

  • Do not cover the appliance; this causes fire hazards.
  • Do not use in confined spaces smaller than 5 m2.
  • Keep children under 3 years away unless supervised.
  • Do not use near flammable materials (min. 100 cm distance).
