Material losses

Observe the minimum clearances (see chapter "Specification / Minimum clearances").

Material losses

Never operate the appliance when the toughened safety glass or other components are damaged.

2.3 Test symbols

See type plate on the appliance. The type plate is located on the outer edge of the appliance near the ON/OFF switch.

3. Appliance description

The appliance is a wall mounted electric heating plate made of toughened safety glass.

A heating mat is glued to the back of the glass plate which warms the plate evenly.

The heat stored in the glass plate is delivered as infra-red radiation. Consequently, occupants and objects alike are heated in the room without any air turbulence.

Note

Never place objects between the appliance and persons requiring heating. In this case, the objects would be heated rather than the persons.

3.1 Toughened safety glass plate

Material losses

Never operate the appliance when the toughened safety glass is damaged.

The front of the appliance is made of 6 mm thick toughened safety glass.

If damaged, the safety glass will shatter into many small pieces with blunt edges to minimise any risk of injury. On very rare occasions, safety glass can spontaneously break even without external influences.

• Avoid any strain on the glass plate, e.g. caused by people or objects leaning on it.
• When selecting an installation site, ensure that no persons or objects can come to harm if the toughened safety glass spontaneously breaks.

Note

Raw mirror glass and cast glass are subject to special manufacturing processes. Spherical or linear inclusions and blisters due to a roll change and pattern offset cannot be excluded and do not constitute a quality defect.

4. Settings

CAUTION Burns

When pressing the ON/OFF switch, avoid any contact with the potentially hot glass plate.

Note

Depending on the size and design of the appliance, it may take some time for it to reach its operating temperature.

Note

When the appliance is first commissioned, it may give off an odour temporarily.

» Ensure that the room is adequately ventilated (with a partially open window, for example).

The ON/OFF switch is located on the outer edge of the appliance.

1 ON/OFF switch

» Switch the appliance on or off using the ON/OFF switch.

After reaching the operating temperature, the appliance heats constantly at around 100 °C.

You can operate the appliance with an optional wall mounted room thermostat.

» Observe the operating and installation instructions of the connected room thermostat.

5. Cleaning, care and maintenance

• After it has cooled down, clean the appliance with a damp cloth and, if necessary, commercial glass cleaner.
- Never use any abrasive or corrosive cleaning products.

6. Troubleshooting

Problem Cause Remedy
The appliance does not heat up.	Fuse or safety switch has blown/tripped.	Check the respective fuses and safety switches.Remove the cause.
	Overheating. The high limit safety cut-out has tripped.	Remove the cause. The appliance restarts after it has cooled down for a few minutes.

If you cannot remedy the fault, notify your qualified contractor. To facilitate and speed up your enquiry, please provide the serial number from the type plate (000000-0000-000000).
