How your product works

Erik is a 3 in 1 appliance – fan heater, aroma diffuser and fireplace effect. The functions can be used together or individually. Fan heater: Equipped with two heat output levels and a thermostat, the desired temperature can be adjusted to suit your personal comfort. Aroma diffuser: Add a few drops of essential oil of your choice directly into the water to fragrance the room air. Fireplace effect: Erik produces an extra fine mist, whereby the special lighting creates a deceptively real fireplace. This effect is cool, harmless and soot-free. Four different colours can be chosen for the flame effect: Amber Light™, red, blue or green.

Assembly (see page 4)

Note: The appliance can also be used without the foot and placed directly on the floor or a sideboard.

To use with a foot, screw the foot (4) clockwise onto the bottom part of the housing (3).

Caution: If you are using the appliance with the foot, the foot must be properly attached before using the appliance to avoid damage and hazards. Ensure that the foot is firmly tightened so that the appliance is stable and cannot tip over. Do not plug the power cable into the socket until you have finished assembling the device.

Setting up / operation

Note: Make sure that there is always sufficient space between the appliance and the wall or other large objects (> 50 cm). The air flow must not be blocked by objects of any kind. The functions can be used together or individually. For the fireplace effect and the aroma diffuser, please refer to points 1–7, 11. For the heating function, please refer to points 1, 3, 4 and 8–11.

1. Put Erik in the desired location on a flat surface. Connect the power cord (1) to a socket with the correct voltage rating.

2. If you would like to use the aroma diffuser function and the fireplace effect, lift off the top part (2) and fill the water tray (3) to the maximum mark with clean, cold tap water. Then put the top part (2) back on the bottom part (3). Important: Transport Erik very carefully and keep him upright when filled with water. The water could splash out of the interior tank and into the electronics. No water is required for the heating function.

3. Switch on the appliance by pressing the On/Off button (8) on the appliance or the remote control. When you put the device into operation, the aroma diffuser function and the fireplace effect (colour Amber Light™) are switched on by default. The heating function is deactivated. The LEDs above the control buttons light up white.

4. The remote control (6) operates via infrared – for this purpose, point the remote control at the infrared receiver on the front of the unit. The battery compartment (7) is located on the bottom of the remote control (6) and is equipped with a child safety lock. To open it, push the small slider inwards and pull out the battery compartment (Type CR2032 battery).

5. By pressing the button for controlling the fireplace effect (9) several times, you can change / deactivate the colour of the LED lighting (Amber Light™ - red - blue - green - light off - light and aroma diffuser off). If the fireplace effect and the aroma diffuser are switched off, the LED above the button (9) no longer lights up. To reactivate the lighting and the fireplace effect, press the button (9) again.

6. You can also use Erik to fragrance the room. We ask that you be sparing when dealing with fragrances as too much can lead to malfunctions and damage to the unit. To use fragrances, remove the top part (2) and add 2–3 drops of your favourite liquid fragrance directly into the water. It is not necessary to mix them as the ultrasonic membrane (15) does this for you. If the fragrance is not intensely enough, you can increase the number of drops.

7. The appliance switches off automatically when water needs to be refilled. Remove the top part (2) and fill the water up to the maximum mark. Place the top part (2) back on the bottom part (3) and press the button for controlling the fireplace effect (9). The appliance will resume operation after a few seconds. Note: If the heating function is activated, only the fireplace effect switches off and the fan heater continues to run.

8. To control the heating function, press the button for selection of heat output level (10). You can choose between three different modes:

LOW = 800 W (press once

HIGH = 1'500 W (press twice)

OFF = Heating function deactivated (press three times)

To reactivate the heating function, press the button for selection of heat output level (10) again. If the heating function is active, the LEDs above the control buttons light up red. "LOW" is activated by default.

1. The target temperature can be set using the button for the thermostat (11). You can choose between four different modes: 18 °C (press once) / 20 °C (press twice) / 22 °C (press three times) or continuous operation "CO" (press four times). "CO" (continuous operation) is activated by default.

Info: The appliance switches off the heating element when the target temperature is reached. The fan remains switched on for 30 seconds at

the highest level to cool down the heating element. The current temperature is then measured approx. every 30 minutes (the fan runs for 1 minute at the lowest level). The appliance switches on again if the room temperature recorded drops below the set target temperature.

1. Protection against overheating: the appliance is equipped with overheating protection which switches off the appliance in the event of a technical fault or improper use (the fan continues to run for some time at the highest level to cool down the appliance). Should this occur, rectify the fault or cease the improper use (e.g. 50 cm space around the appliance, do not cover the appliance, set the appliance up in an upright position). Once the appliance has cooled down it can be put back into service.
2. If the device is not used on a daily basis, switch it off by pressing the On/Off button (8). If Erik was used with the aroma diffuser function and fireplace effect, empty the water out of the appliance via the water outlet (17). If the heating function was active, the fan remains switched on at the highest level for 30 seconds to cool down the heating element. Note: The device has a memory function and saves the last selected setting for 24 h when you switch off the device and disconnect it from the power supply.

Note: If you would like to change the fragrance, empty the water out of the appliance via the water outlet (17). Clean the water tray (3) with a damp cloth and a bit of dish detergent. Fill Erik once again and pour the drops into the device following the instructions.

Cleaning

Prior to any maintenance, cleaning and after each use, switch off the appliance (8) and unplug the mains cable (1) from the socket.

Attention: Never immerse the device in water (danger of short circuit).

Make sure that the air inlet (16) and air outlet (12) are cleaned regularly to prevent the build-up of dust. Use a dry paintbrush or the soft brush attachment for your vacuum cleaner to do this.

For hygienic reasons and to ensure proper operation, we recommend the following cleaning intervals when Erik is used as an aroma diffuser and/or as a fireplace effect:

• Daily: Fill the water tray (3) with fresh, cold tap water. If the appliance is not used for several days, empty the water from the water tray (3) beforehand and if necessary, clean it with a bit of dish detergent and a clean cloth. Pour the water out of the appliance via the water outlet (17). Fill fresh water into the water tray (3), before putting the appliance back into operation.
• Every 2 weeks: First remove the top part (2). Clean the inside of the water tray (3) thoroughly with a bit of dish detergent, warm water and a soft, clean cloth, sponge or brush. Use diluted descaling agent (mix according to the manufacturer's instructions) for lime deposits. Then rinse the water tray (3) thoroughly with cold water and put the top part (2) back on.

- Descaling at least 1x per month. Remove the top part (2). If limescale deposits form in the water tray (3) we recommend using Stadler Form Cleaner & Descaler (www.stadlerform.com/accessories). Alternatively, you can use a household decalcifier or vinegar. Fill a cup with 100 ml of tap water mixed with descaling agent (mix according to the manufacturer's

instructions). Pour the liquid carefully into the water tray (3). Be sure that no liquid enters the air outlet opening (14). This will damage the appliance and will void any claim to the warranty.

- Let the descaling agent allow to take effect according to manufacturer's instructions (approx. 30 min.). Check in the water tray (3) if the limescale on the ultrasonic membrane (15) has dissolved.

- For stubborn limescale, we recommend descaling the appliance several times in a row.

- First pour the descaling mixture out of the appliance via the water outlet (17). To rinse, now fill the cup with 100 ml of tap water and carefully pour the liquid into the water tray (3). Pour the water out of the appliance via the water outlet (17). Repeat the process until there is no more descaling agent in the water tray (3). Place the top part (2) back on the bottom part (3).

- Regularly as required: For external cleaning, rub with a damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. If the inside of the top part (2) shows water and/or fragrance deposits, please clean it using a damp cloth and a bit of dish detergent.

Repairs

- Repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a qualified electrical technician. If improper repairs are carried out, the warranty lapses and all liability is refused.

- Never operate the appliance if the adaptor or plug is damaged, after it has malfunctioned, if it has been dropped or has been damaged in any other way (cracks/breaks in the casing).

- Do not push any object into the appliance.

- If the appliance is beyond repair, make it unusable immediately by cutting through the cable and hand it in at the collection point provided for the purpose.

- In the event of a repair, the following points must be observed before the appliance is shipped or taken to the dealer: completely empty the water in the appliance (water tray or water tank), and allow the appliance to dry completely. Appliances containing residual water may be damaged during transport, invalidating the warranty.

Disposal

The European directive 2012 / 19 / CE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the

product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
