In the event of incompatibility between the electric outlet and the plug of the appliance, have the outlet replaced with another more suitable type by professionally qualified personnel, who will make sure that the section of the wires of the outlet is appropriate for the absorbed power of the appliance. In general, the use of adapters or extension cords is not recommended; if their use is indispensable, they must conform to existing safety standards and their current capacity (amperes) must not be less that the maximum of the heater. The power socket must be easy to reach so the plug can be removed quickly in case of emergency.

ASSEMBLY Note: before assembling the fan, ensure that it is not plugged into the mains. The appliance can only be used if all parts are completely and properly assembled, i.e. complete with base, protective grids, rotor. Proceed as follows, referring to the figures.

1. Insert the power cord through the larger hole

in the base, ensuring that it does not get pinched.

2. Attach the base, aligning the bigger hole with

the base stand: check that they match up correctly and secure the parts with the screws, tightening them with a normal manual force (excessive tightening with cause the screw to continue turning, whereas the parts will not remain secured if not tightened enough).

3. Unscrew the ring nuts (12) and (3) from the motor head.

4. Insert the rear grid (4) onto the motor head so that the handle is at

the back and lock it with the special ring nut (3).
