c) Models with a 24 hour time-clock (fig. 8)
To programme heating, proceed as follows:
- Look at the time on your clock or watch. If it is 10.00, turn the numbered timer disk clockwi-
se until the number 10 on the disk coincides with the pointer
▲ on the timer. Set the periods
of time when you want the appliance to work by pushing the teeth inwards. Each tooth cor-
responds to a period of 15 minutes. This will leave visible sectors which correspond to the
periods of operation. When set, the radiator will operate automatically each day during the
times programmed (important: the radiator must always be plugged into the socket).
- To change the programming, move the teeth back into the initial position and set the new
periods of functioning.
- If you want to make the appliance operate without programming, push all the teeth into the
centre. In this case, to turn the appliance off completely, as well as turning the switches off,
you must also unplug it from the mains to avoid continued operation of the timer.
TURBO HEATING
Some models are fitted with a heating fan which heats the room more quickly.
To turn this function on, push the button into the position.
Important: a safety device cuts in and switches off the appliance if it overheats due to an accu-
mulation of dust on the air intake and output grills. To restart it, unplug from the mains and
leave the appliance to cool down. Clean the air intake and output grills with a vacuum cleaner,
then replug into the mains and turn on again.
5. MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any operation on the radiator, unplug from the electric mains and wait for
it to cool.
The oil-filled electric radiator requires no particular maintenance. It is sufficient to remove the
dust with a soft, dry cloth. Never use abrasive powders or solvents. If necessary remove con-
centrations of dirt using a vacuum cleaner.
6. IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT: Never under any circumstances cover the appliance during opera-
tion as this would lead to dangerous overheating.
If this recommendation is not respected, a safety device will turn the radiator off. To reset,
contact the technical assistance service.
-Never use the radiator near a bath, shower, basin or swimming pool.
-Never use the radiator to dry damp garments. Never rest the cable on hot elements.
- Use the radiator in the vertical position only.
-
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or simi-
larly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
-When you start the radiator for the first time, leave it operating at maximum power for at
least two hours. During this operation, ventilate the room well to eliminate the “new” smell
emanating from the appliance.
- It is normal for the appliance to emit a squeaking noise when turned on for the first time.
- The appliance must never be placed immediately under a fixed mains socket.
- This radiator is filled with a precise quantity of oil and repairs which require it to be ope-
ned must be carried out exclusively by the manufacturer or an authorised service centre. In
the case of oil leaks, contact the manufacturer or the authorised service centre.
-When scrapping the appliance, respect legislation on the disposal of oil.
- Do not use the appliance in rooms with a base area of less than 4 m
