The equipment may be used indoors in a free standing position or outdoors in a weather-protected area (not in the rain). Observe the minimum clearances specified in section 6.1 Installation for mounting on a wall and for use as a free-standing unit. The equipment is not suitable for heating baby changing tables or for drying towels and textiles. Do not cover the equipment – risk of fire! The halogen heater warms objects or persons at which it is pointed but does not directly heat the air in the process. The heater is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Warning! n Keep a minimum distance of 200 cm between the front grille and any objects (e.g. curtains), walls and other structural elements. There must be a clearance of 50 cm between the side of the equipment and any objects or walls which are not within the radius of radiation. The distance to the ceiling must be at least 50 cm.

6.1.1 Free-standing installation (Fig. 2 – 4)

Warning! The equipment is allowed to be used only when standing on a stable surface and fully assembled. It is prohibited to operate the equipment on an instable surface (e.g. on a bed). n Screw the bottom stand pipe (2) to the foot (1). n Screw the middle stand pipe (3) to the bottom stand pipe (2). n Screw the top stand pipe (with preassembled telescopic tube) (4) to the middle stand pipe (3). n Place the heater head (5) onto the top telescopic tube (4). n Secure the heater head to the telescopic tube with the securing screw M 6x10 mm (A).

6.1.2 Mounting on a wall (Fig. 5)

Warning! n Mounting in a horizontal and stationary position on vertical walls at a height of at least 1.8 m above the floor is mandatory. The distance to the ceiling must be at least 50 cm. n The equipment is not allowed to be fitted to the ceiling. The heat emitted by the heater may turn wooden ceilings dark in spite of observing the minimum distance to the ceiling. Caution! Make sure that there are no electric cables or other installations (for example water pipes) near the drill holes. Ensure that the equipment is secured firmly and horizontally to the wall. Use only suitable fastening material on a wall capable of bearing the load. The supplied dowels and screws are suitable for the following: Concrete, natural stone with a dense structure, solid brick, solid limestone bricks, solid lightweight concrete bricks and aerated concrete. n To mount on a wall, please use the supplied wall bracket. n The screws (E) are already pre-fitted according to the model. If this is not the case, lock the holding arm (D) and the sleeve (C) each with one screw M 3x6 mm (E). n Transfer the position of the four drill holes (Ø 8 mm) from the wall plate (B) onto the wall with a marker. Remember to allow for the minimum clearances specified above. n Drill the holes in the wall and insert the dowels. n Screw the wall bracket tightly in place. n Fig. 6: Place the heater head on the wall bracket and secure it to the wall bracket with the securing screw M 6x10 mm (fig. 4).

7. Using the equipment

Important. Before using the equipment for the first time, check that the voltage supply is the same as the voltage details set out on the rating plate. Read the safety regulations in section 1. When the equipment is used for the first time or after a long period of rest, it may emit an odor for a short time. This is not a fault. If black spots appear on the heating elements during the first minutes of operation, this will affect neither the quality nor performance of the heater.

The equipment has a topple cut-out. This will trip as soon as the device is tipped beyond certain angle. It will cut in again after the device has been placed upright.
