Frequently Asked Questions - HD3353 PHILIPS

How to use the cool air function?

Set the control knob (C) to the ♣ position (cool air). Only the fan operates, without heating.

How to adjust the thermostat for a constant temperature?

Turn the thermostat control (D) clockwise to increase the temperature, and counterclockwise to lower it. First set to maximum, then lower until the heating turns off when the desired temperature is reached.

What to do if the device turns off and does not turn back on?

Check if the thermostat is simply in the off position. If the thermostat is at maximum and the device does not restart, the overheat protection has activated. Unplug, let it cool for 30 minutes, check air circulation, clean the grilles, then plug it back in.

Can I use this device in a bathroom?

No, it is dangerous to mix water and electricity. The device must not be placed in a bathroom or near a swimming pool.

How to clean the device?

Turn off and unplug the device, let it cool. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to clean the grilles for air inlet and outlet regularly.

What is the frost protection position?

The frost protection position corresponds to the minimum thermostat setting (approx. 5°C) to protect nearby elements, such as pipes, from freezing.

Can I use an extension cord?

Yes, you can use a two-wire extension cord (due to double insulation). Make sure it supports 16A/220V or 13A/240V and fully unwind the cable to avoid overheating.

How to store the power cord?

The cord can be wrapped around the four feet of the device for storage. During use, it must be fully unwound.

What does the illuminated indicator mean?

The light indicator indicates that the device is plugged in and operating (in cool air, warm air, or very hot air position). It remains on even if the thermostat or safety device has cut off the heating.

Can I operate the device without heating?

Yes, set the control knob (C) to the ♣ position (cool air). Only the fan operates, without heating elements.

Important

• Before connecting the appliance check that the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to the mains voltage in your home.
• Read these instructions carefully, in conjunction with the illustrations (page 3) before using the appliance.
• The appliance is double insulated and need not be connected to an earthed mains outlet. If you wish to use an extension cord, a 2-wire type is suitable. However, ensure that the plugs and cord allow high power (16A-220V / 13A-240V AC). If a reel type is employed, please unroll the cord completely to prevent overheating.
• It may happen, especially if the heater operates on position ●● and another electrical device is switched on as well, that a fuse or circuit breaker cuts off the mains power. In such a case, the fuse or circuit breaker may not allow this high electrical power. You may connect one of the involved appliances to another circuit (employing another fuse or circuit breaker) or have the electrical installation revised by an authorized electrician.
• The heater is not designed for use as the main form of heating. Use the appliance only for the intended use, i.e. extra heating in the house.
• To avoid the risk of fire and electrical shock select a safe place for the heater. (See section "Safe positioning".)
• Do not insert any objects into the heater.
• Ensure that children cannot play with the appliance.
• Attention: the front grille gets hot during use.
• Only touch the heater with dry hands.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by Philips or their service representative, as special tools and/or parts are required.

Safe positioning

• The heater must not be located immediately below a socket outlet.
• Only use the fan heater when it is standing in a horizontal position, on the four feet (as illustrated in fig. 1).
• For your own safety and that of others: water and electricity are a dangerous combination! Do not use this heater in a bathroom or near a swimming pool. Ensure that the appliance cannot fall into water (bath, wash basin, shower cubicle, etc.).

• Do not use the heater in rooms with explosive gas (e.g. petrol) or while using inflammable glue or solvent (e.g. when glueing or varnishing parquet floors, PVC etc.).

• Allow ample space around the heater. A safe area to be left free is 50 cm / 20" at the top and at the sides, and 120 cm / 47" at the front.

• Prevent overheating of the appliance by keeping the air inlet and outlet grilles free: do not hang anything in front of it or above it - otherwise there is a risk of fire.
  Check the grilles from time to time for accumulated dust. If overheating should occur, the built-in overheating safety device will switch off the appliance.
• Keep the mains cord at a safe distance from the air inlet and outlet grilles.
• Do not allow aerosols, inflammable substances or materials sensitive to heat to be in the flow of hot air.
• Do not use the heater on extremely deep-pile carpets!
• Do not use the heater in an upright position (see figure).

Storing the mains cord

Excess mains cord can be stored by winding it around the four feet, at the bottom of the appliance. However, when the heater is being used, unwind the cord completely.

How to use

The selector switch (C) and the thermostat knob (D) enable you to select the following functions:

Selector switch (C)

O = "Off". Both the fan and the two heating elements are switched off.
✿ = "Cool air". Only the fan is switched on.
● = "Warm air" for gradual heating-up. ECO positon (half power): the fan and one of the two heating elements are switched on.
● ● = "Hot air" for quick heating-up. Full power: the fan and the two heating elements are switched on.

Thermostat knob (D) With the thermostat knob you can set a constant room temperature.

When the selector switch is set to position ● or position ●●, the heater will automatically switch on (using half power or full power respectively) as soon as the room temperature falls below the set temperature.

As soon as the set temperature is reached, the heater will switch off.

Rotate the knob clockwise to obtain a higher temperature setting or anti-clockwise for a lower temperature setting.

You may adjust the thermostat during use.

To find the ideal thermostat setting:

- First set the knob to maximum position. (Rotate clockwise until the knob stops.)

- As soon as the temperature is comfortable, turn the knob anti-clockwise slowly until the heater goes off.

= "Frost-free" position. This position corresponds with the minimum thermostat setting (i.e. approx. +5 ^ C / +41 ^ F) and can be used to keep the immediate vicinity of the heater free from frost. E.g. to prevent pipes from freezing, position the heater close to the pipe and select this position.

Please note: When using the cool air setting ✦, the thermostat knob should be in its highest position.

Pilot light

• When the appliance is connected to the mains and switched on by selecting ✝, ● or ●● the pilot light (E) will come on.
• The light will stay on until the appliance is switched off by setting the selector switch (C) to position O or by disconnecting from the mains.
• To indicate that the heater is still connected and in "switched-on" position (♣, ● or ●●), the pilot light will remain on when the set temperature is reached and the thermostat switches the appliance off.
  For the same reason the pilot light will remain on when the overheating safety device switches the appliance off.

Overheating safety device

To prevent damage and risks due to overheating, the built-in overheating safety device cuts off the power as soon as the heating elements become too hot.

If this should happen:

- First ensure that it was not the thermostat which has switched off the heater. Set the thermostat to maximum position.

If the heater does not switch on, the safety device has been activated.

• Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
• Let the heater cool down for 30 minutes.
• Check if the heater had been placed correctly.
• Check if anything is obstructing the air flow. If necessary, clean the grilles with a vacuum cleaner.
• Replace the plug into the wall socket and switch the heater on again.

If the safety device again switches off the heater:

• Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
• Have the heater inspected by a Philips Service Centre or by your dealer.

Cleaning

• Set the selector switch (C) to position O to switch off.
• Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
• Wait for the heater to cool down sufficiently.
• You may clean the outside of the heater with a damp cloth. Do not allow water to come into the appliance.
• Clean the air inlet and outlet grilles regularly (with normal use at least twice a year) with a vacuum cleaner, using the brush attachment.
