Frequently Asked Questions - HV180 Duronic

How to adjust the power of the HV180 heater?

Turn the power control dial to position I for 900 W or to II for 1800 W. Position 0 to turn off.

What to do if the heater does not turn on?

Check that the cable is properly plugged into a working mains socket, that the main fuse has not blown, that the power dial is set to I or II and that the temperature dial is not in the off position.

How to activate the anti-freeze function?

Plug in the device and turn the temperature control dial to the snowflake position (freeze symbol). The heater will then maintain a temperature above 0°C to prevent freezing.

Can I use this heater in a bathroom?

Yes, because it has an IP24 protection rating which makes it splash-resistant. However, place it at least one meter away from any water source and do not use it in the immediate vicinity of a bathtub or shower.

How to clean the HV180 heater?

Turn off and unplug the device, let it cool down. Use a vacuum cleaner to dust the grilles, then a well-wrung damp cloth for stains. Do not use abrasive detergents and never immerse the heater.

The heater gives off a strange smell, is this normal?

Yes, after storage or first use, odours may appear due to dust or absorbed particles. These odours disappear after a few minutes of operation.

Can I plug the heater into a power strip?

No, it is strongly advised against using an extension cord or power strip because the heater's power (1800 W) poses a risk of overheating and fire. Plug it directly into a wall socket.

How to assemble the heater's feet?

Place the heater upside down on a stable surface. Position one foot on the base aligning the holes, insert the two provided screws and tighten them. Repeat for the second foot.

What to do if the heater turns off by itself?

This may be due to overheating (the cover sensor or tip-over protection has activated). Make sure nothing is blocking the grilles and that the heater is on a stable surface. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Can this heater serve as main heating?

No, the HV180 is designed for supplementary heating or occasional use, in well-insulated spaces. It does not replace a central heating system.
