GETTING STARTED

1. Carefully remove the heater from the plastic bag and the carton.
2. Place the heater on a stable and flat surface.
3. Set the main power switch to the 'OFF' position (see diagram on above right). Plug the cord set into a 220-240V\~A.C. 50Hz earthed electrical outlet. Turn the main POWER switch to the 'ON' position. A 'beep' sound and the blue LCD will come on indicating that there is power to the unit (it will turn off again after 10 seconds).

1. TURN THE UNIT ON (POWER): Turn the heater ON by pressing the 'POWER' button; the LCD of the unit will display the current ROOM temperature. Upon turning the heater on, the unit will be in the default HIGH HEAT MODE and the ionizer will automatically switch on (the ionizer cannot be switched off on its own).
2. SET THE FUNCTION YOU WANT (MODE): Pressing the 'MODE' button will set the heater into different FUNCTIONS or MODES. Your heater has 4 modes: COOL FAN, LOW HEAT, HIGH HEAT and AUTO. (See figures below).

DISPLAY ON UNIT

COOL FAN MODE

- The heating element is turned off and the unit is operating with the fan only. This mode is indicated by FAN on the LCD. The UP and DOWN buttons are disabled in this mode.

omega altise

LOW HEAT MODE

- The heating element is turned on and the unit is operating with the fan at its low setting. The UP and DOWN buttons are also disabled in this mode.

HIGH HEAT MODE

- The heating element is turned on and the unit is operating with the fan at its high setting. This is also the default operation of the heater. The UP and DOWN buttons are also disabled in this mode.

AUTO MODE

- This is the only mode where the UP and DOWN buttons are not disabled. This allows you to set the temperature you want on your heater (see next page for more details)

1. SET THE TEMPERATURE YOU WANT (UP and DOWN): When the unit is in the AUTO MODE ONLY, the LCD will display a 'SET TEMP' (Set Temperature) indicator. The digital temperature readout display will be flashing (see figure).

a. To adjust the "SET TEMP", while the digital readout is flashing, press the 'UP' button to increase the desired temperature and the 'DOWN' button to decrease the desired temperature. The LCD will then stop flashing and display the current ROOM temperature (this will take about 10 seconds after setting the temperature). The heater will now use your set temperature as a reference.
b. When the air temperature reaches 1° above the SET TEMP, the heater will automatically cut off (including the oscillation function).
c. When the air temperature drops 1° degree below the SET TEMP, the unit will automatically turn back on. Note: It is normal for the heater to cycle ON and OFF as it maintains the SET TEMPERATURE.

1. WARM A BIGGER SURFACE AREA (OSC - OSCILLATION): Pressing the 'OSC' button will allow the heater to oscillate. The heater can oscillate up to 70°. To stop the oscillation, press the 'OSC' button once more. (see figure below)

OSCILLATION (OSC) INDICATOR

- When this symbol is displayed, your unit is in oscillation mode.

1. SET THE SLEEP TIMER (TIMER): The timer function allows you to set the length of operation of your heater from 0.5 hour to 7.5 hours. Pressing the 'Timer' button repeatedly will increase the length of operation by 0.5 hour each time. The sleep timer can be set in any mode.

TIMER INDICATOR

- When this symbol is displayed, it indicates the length of operation of your unit (sleep timer only).

1. TURN OFF WHEN NOT IN USE. To turn the heater OFF, press the 'POWER' button. The unit will work in the COOL FAN MODE for 30 seconds then turn itself off.

1. Install two "AAA" (not included) batteries by sliding the bottom panel of the battery body.
2. The Remote Control Power button is labelled as such. All the functions performed with the Remote Control work identically to the Manual Controls.
3. When changing modes or setting the timer, it is recommended to have the unit in non-oscillation mode and the remote control preferably aligned to the LCD panel. This will enable better communication between the remote control and the main unit. The change in function is confirmed by a beep by the main unit. Always check the LCD of the main unit to confirm that you are in the correct mode (or have set the correct time).

IMPORTANT: as per the requirements of the approval regulations on safety, when the unit receives the instruction from the remote control precisely, the working status of the unit will be updated with the status shown on the remote control. This will ensure that the unit's working status is kept the same as the remote control's working status at that time.

HINTS & TIPS

Where possible your electric heater should be connected to a power outlet that uses a separate 10 amp power circuit. This will avoid overloading your household fuse.

In the event that your household fuse is overloaded and trips, please note this is normally caused by the use of excessive power outlets at the same time your heater is operating (for example, a steam iron, kettle, toaster etc.). Please ensure to check the use of the power circuit and adjust when heater is in use (i.e. turn off the heater when boiling a kettle).

Should you still experience difficulty contact Omega Altise Service for assistance.

It is important that you retain these instructions, proof of purchase as well as other important documents about this product for future reference. Due to continual product development, Omega Altise reserves the right to alter specifications or appearances without notice.
