INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Switching on
Turn the thermostat dial clockwise to maximum.

When the room reaches the required temperature, turn the dial counter clockwise slowly until you hear a click.
The appliance will come on and go off automatically to maintain the required temperature.
Economizer
For economy of use, the switches can be used singly:
- button in position «MIN» only = minimum power (light on)
- button in position «MED» only = medium power (light on)
- buttons in both positions «MIN» and «MED» = maximum power (lights on)
Using the thermostat
The thermostat operates on the basis of room temperature and not radiator temperature.
Turn the thermostat dial counter clockwise towards the lower numbers to reduce the temperature; turn it clockwise towards the higher numbers to raise the temperature. To turn the appliance off completely, turn the thermostat to minimum and unplug from the outlet.
Frost protection function
With the thermostat in position and the switches pressed, the appliance maintains the room at a temperature of about 41°F (5°C), preventing freezing with minimum energy consumption.
COMFORTEMP BUTTON
With the “COMFORTEMP” button and both switches pressed, the appliance is automatically set to reach and maintain what is considered to be the comfort temperature.
A green light comes on to indicate activation of “COMFORTEMP”. In this mode the temperature is automatically set only by the “COMFORTEMP”. To deactivate this mode and return to thermostat operation, press the COMFORTEMP button again.
MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any operation on the radiator, unplug from the electric outlet 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. Never use abrasive powders or solvents. If necessary remove concentrations of dirt using a vacuum cleaner.
