[. . . ] Fully unfold the castors by turning them outwards (Fig. 7). Turn the radiator back to its upright position. Important When in use, the radiator should always be kept vertical (wheels at the bottom, controls at the top). Any other position could be dangerous! Electrical connection - Before plugging the radiator into the mains, check that your supply voltage is the same as that shown on the rating plate of the appliance. - If using more than one radiator at a time, it is important to ensure that the ring main is adequate to cope with the power requirements. - It is important to ensure that the socket is adequately earthed. [. . . ] Turbo heating Some models are fitted with a heating fan which heats the room more quickly. To turn this function on, push the button into the position. Important: a safety device cuts in and switches off the appliance if it overheats due to an accumulation of dust on the air intake and output grills. To restart it, unplug from the mains and leave the appliance to cool down. Clean the air intake and output grills with a vacuum cleaner, then replug into the mains and turn on again. * Cleaning and Maintenance Before carrying out any maintenance, unplug the radiator from the mains and wait for it to cool. The oil-filled electric radiator requires no particular maintenance. It is sufficient to remove the dust with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary remove concentrated areas of dirt with a vacuum cleaner. Warnings - Do not use your radiator in the vicinity of showers, bathtubs, sinks, swimming pools etc. - Never use your radiator to dry laundry. - Never place the power cable on top of the radiatorwhile it is hot. - Only use the heater in an upright position. 3 Electric oil filled radiator - The heater must be positioned at least 50cm from furniture or other objects. - If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. - It is normal for the heater to make 'crackling' noises during the first time it is switched on (or in the case of infrequent use) - The body of your radiator is filled with an exact quantity of oil. If repairs are necessary which call for the opening of the radiator, they must be done only by the manufacturer or an authorised service centre. In the unlikely event of oil leakage, contact the manufacturer or an authorised service centre. - Do not use your radiator in rooms which have an area smaller than 4m2 as this may lead to overheating. - The heater must never be placed immediately under a fixed mains socket. - When scrapping the appliance, respect legislation on the disposal of oil. - The use of an extension lead is not recommended, however if it is neccessary then follow carefully the extension lead's instructions, and most importantly ensure that the extension lead is correctly rated in accordance with the heater being used and NEVER overloaded. - As with any electrical appliance, whilst the instructions aim to cover as many eventualities as possible, caution and common sense should be applied when operating your appliance, particularly in the vicinity of young children. ATTENTION: in order to avoid any danger caused by an accidental resetting of the safety system, this appliance must not be powered through an external timer. IMPORTANT: Never for any reason cover the radiator during operation as this could lead to dangerous overheating. [. . . ] Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size. After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. [. . . ]
