General safety instructions
1. Before using the machine, carefully read this entire instruction manual. Keep the
instruction leaflet somewhere safe so that you can consult it in future.
2. Before using your new heater, check it, including cord and plug, for any visible
damage. Do not use a damaged heater, but send it back to your dealer for
replacement.
3. Do not use the heater until it is been fully installed in accordance with the
instructions under the heading ‘Installation’.
4. This heater is strictly intended for normal domestic use. Only use it for the
additional heating of your home.
5. This heater is, in principle, suitable for use in wet or damp spaces such as
bathrooms, wash rooms etc. (IP24). Keep it at least 1.5 m from water sources
and water reservoirs (bath, sink, toilet) and ensure that it can never fall into water
and that no water penetrates the heater itself. If the heater does get wet make
sure you remove the plug from the socket! Do not use a heater that is wet inside
but take it to be repaired. Never immerse the cable or plug in water or any other
fluid and never touch the heater with wet hands.
6. The supply voltage and utility frequency, specified on the machine, need to
match those of the socket that is used. The socket used needs to be earthed and
the electrical installation needs to be secured with a ground-fault circuit
interrupter (max. 30 mAmp).
7. Fully extend the cord before plugging in the heater. Make sure it does not come
into contact with any part of the heater and prevent it from heating up any other
way. Do not run the cord underneath carpeting; do not cover it with mats, carpet
strips or similar and make sure it is not placed in any passageways. Make sure
the cord cannot be stepped on and that no furniture is placed on top of it. Do not
lead the cord around sharp corners and do not roll it up too tightly after use!
8. If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses the risk of overheating
and fire. If the use of an extension cord is unavoidable, then make sure it is an
undamaged, approved extension cord with a minimum diameter of 3 x 1,5 mm²
