Safety

Warning: Follow these instructions for your safety and the safety of others. Carefully read through all the instructions before using the radiator.

• Only use the radiator with the feet attached. This model is not designed to be wall mounted.
• Connect the radiator only to an earthed wall outlet with 220–240 V AC.
• Only use the radiator as described in the instruction manual. Do not use the radiator for any purpose other than that for which it was intended or modify it in any way.
• Make sure the radiator is clean and is not covered with dust or residue.
• The radiator is intended to be placed feet-down on a firm, level surface.
  • Always unplug the radiator when it is not in use and before cleaning it.
• The radiator is only intended for indoor use. Do not use the radiator in humid places or close to the bath or any other liquid-filled containers into which it may fall.
• The radiator becomes very hot during use. Do not place the radiator close to combustible materials such as furniture, bedclothes, paper or wood. Do not place the radiator on soft carpets/mats or similar surfaces that can block the air inlets on the bottom panel.
• The radiator must not be covered. This may block the air inlets and cause a fire hazard.
• Make sure the flex is not too close to any hot part of the radiator which would cause the cable insulation to melt.
• The radiator is not a toy. Do not let children play with or around the radiator without adult supervision when it is in use.
• Never use the radiator in areas where flammable liquids/materials or gases (petrol, solvents, gas cylinders, etc.) are stored or used.
• Do not use the radiator with an extension lead.
• Never use the radiator if the flex, plug or any other part is damaged or is not working properly. Never try to repair the radiator yourself. Leave it to a professional tradesman.
• Make sure that no foreign objects cover or obstruct the ventilation openings or outlet vents. This can increase risk for electric shock, fire or may damage the radiator irreparably.
• Never place the radiator directly under a wall outlet.
• Never use the radiator or an extension lead near the bath, shower, swimming pool, etc.
• For extra safety, all electrical products connected to the mains should be run through an RCD for personal safety. The RCD should be rated to trip at 30 mA.
