USING THE APPLIANCE
First use: run the appliance to eliminate the "new smell" and any oil residue from the
manufacturing process for at least 10/15 minutes. During this operation, ventilate the room
well to eliminate the "new smell" that is given off by the appliance.
The fan heater is equipped with the following adjustment devices:
The appliance comes with a thermostat, selector switch, indicator light, 24-hour timer and
safety device:
- the selector switch (A) controls the following:
"0" = off; " "= fan on; "I"= hot air (1000W); "I I"= very hot air (2000W)
- the thermostat (B) adjusts the ambient temperature, and is greater when the selector is
turned towards the maximum position (clockwise direction): once the temperature has
been reached, it will be kept constant, while setting it to the lines in between causes the
element to come on at intervals.
- The indicator light (C) turns on and off when the appliance reaches the set temperatures.
- safety device: when included it stops operation in the event of overheating. To restore
operation, remove the plug from the mains and wait for it to cool (about 20 minutes) and
insert the plug into the plug point and turn on again.
- switch (D): when the index is in position "I" the
appliance works, but the timer is excluded, in
position " " the timer is active, in pos."0" the
