USER MANUAL Twist DXFH02 DUUX

Thank you for choosing Duux!

Thank you for choosing Duux. You should read the manual for your new Duux ceramic heater before using it. Many users skip the manual and start using the appliance straight away. However, studies have shown that people who read the manual first can get up and running faster and more efficiently than people who just go for it.

At Duux, we believe everyone should be able to enjoy a comfortable and healthy living environment. Improving ones indoor climate with attractive, functional and effective products is what drives us on a daily basis. With our range of innovative air treatment products, we strive to provide you with the best possible air quality.

Meet the surprisingly effective ceramic heater, which is very powerful for its compact size due to its double DC fan. As a result of the increased air flow, the heat produced by the ceramic plate can be distributed further into the room when compared to heaters of comparable size with only one fan.

Read the manual carefully to get the most out of your Twist ceramic heater.

Unwind the power cable completely before plugging the power cable into the wall socket, and make sure the cable does not come into contact with the fan heater or become exposed to heat. Do not route the cable under carpet, do not cover it with mats, runners or suchlike, and lay the cable in such a way that it does not constitute a trip hazard. Ensure the cable cannot be stepped on and that no furniture is put on it. Do not route the cable around sharp corners, and do not wind it up too tightly after use.

To prevent overheating, the heater must never be covered.
8 Do not use the ceramic heater outdoors.

9 Please do not extend the power cable yourself. The use of an extension cable is not recommended; this may cause overheating and/or fire. If the use of an extension cable is unavoidable, ensure it is an undamaged and approved extension cable with a minimum diameter of 3 × 2.5 ~mm^2 and an authorised power rating of at least 2,000 Watt/10 Amp. Always unwind the cable completely to prevent overheating.

16 The ceramic heater is only intended for indoor use. Only use the appliance for supplementary heating.
17 The heater should not be placed directly under, near, or directed towards, a wall socket.
