In both MANUAL and AUTO mode there are three heat
settings options (see Fig. 4):
‘Intelligent’ Eco Mode - The product will automatically
regulate the room temperature accordingly. In this mode
the product operates at full power, however the output of
the product is automatically reduced and regulated as the
room temperature approaches the desired level. This mode
optimises energy use by calculating the most efcient and
effective way to achieve the desired temperature setting.
The desired room temperature can be adjusted at any time
during operation by pressing the appropriate key.
Low Heat - In this option, the appliance will operate at a low
heat setting, the appliance will automatically cycle at this
setting to maintain the room temperature setting.
High Heat - In this option, the appliance will operate at a
high heat setting, the appliance will automatically cycle at
this setting to maintain the room temperature setting.

boost mode, timer period selected and the desired set
temperature. The time display will toggle between the
current time and time remaining for the selected boost
period.
Frost protection mode
The appliance has a frost protection mode. This setting is
useful in areas such as garages to assist in the prevention
of frost damage. In Manual mode, if the thermostat is set
to its minimum setting ‘5°C’, the heater will cycle ON and

Safety in use
This appliance incorporates a number of safety devices.
In addition to the ‘Important Safety Advice’ section your
attention is drawn to the following;
Tilt Switch
The tilt switch will prevent the heater from working if it is
accidentally tipped over on its side. If the radiator is tipped
over while it is hot, disconnect the power and allow it to
cool, then stand the radiator back upright. Reconnect the
power - normal operation should be resumed.
Safety Overheat Protection
For your safety this appliance is tted with a thermal cut-out.
In the event that the product overheats for some reason, the
cut-out prevents excessive temperatures on the product by
cutting the power to the heater. Once the heater has cooled
down, it will reset automatically, it will continue to cycle on
and off automatically until the reason for overheating is
removed.
Storage
If the heater is not required for long periods, for example
during the summer, it should be stored in a dry place and
preferably covered to prevent the accumulation of dirt and
dust. The supply cord should be neatly coiled around the
cable wrap and the plug stored in the cable wrap moulding.
