When the desired temperature is max. two degrees above the ambient
temperature, the device will heat at low power. If the desired temperature is more
then two degrees above the ambient temperature, then the unit will heat at full
power
Once the set temperature is reached, the device stops heating.
Note! After the thermostat has switched the heating elements off, the fan will keep
turning. This means that the air is constantly moved, allowing the heater to accurately
detect if the area is cooling down. The unit switches on again if the room cools down
to 2 °C below the set temperature.
Safeguards
The device is equipped with an anti-tipping safeguard which automatically switches
off the device if it has unexpectedly fallen. When you place it back straight, it returns
to the standby position. First switch off the device, unplug it from the socket and
check the stove for damage before putting it back into operation. In the event of
damage or malfunction, the device may no longer be operated and must be handed
over to a specialist for inspection or repair!
In case of internal overheating, the overheating safeguard will switch the heater off.
This may occur if the heater cannot give off enough heat or if it cannot draw in
enough fresh air. As mentioned above, this is generally caused by (partially) covering
the heater, obstructing the air intake and/or outlet grills or installing the heater too
close to a wall or something similar. When the overheating safeguard switches the
heater off, set the main switch to ‘0’ (off), unplug and allow the heater to cool down.
Remove and/or amend the cause of overheating and reuse the heater as normal. If
you cannot find a cause and overheating recurs, stop using the heater, and take it in
for inspection/repair.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Keep the heater clean. Deposits of dust and dirt in the appliance are a common
cause of overheating so these should be removed regularly. Switch off the heater,
remove the plug from the socket and allow the heater to cool down before cleaning or
carrying out maintenance work.
Wipe the outside of the heater regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not
use aggressive soaps, sprays, cleaners or abrasives, waxes, polishes or
chemical solutions!
Using a vacuum cleaner, carefully remove any dust and dirt from the grills and
ensure that the air intake and outlet openings are clean. Be careful not to touch
or damage any internal parts during cleaning!
The heater contains no other parts which need maintenance.
At the end of the season, store the cleaned heater in the original packaging if
necessary. Store it upright in a cool, dry and dust-free place.
