2. Important Safety Information
Please read all safety instructions carefully before operating the appliance. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or injury.
- Placement: Always place the heater on a firm, level surface. Ensure adequate clearance from walls, furniture, and curtains (minimum 50 cm). Do not place the heater directly below a power outlet.
- Power Supply: Connect the heater only to a grounded 100V, 50/60Hz power outlet. Do not use extension cords or power strips. The heater is equipped with a double-molded plug for enhanced safety.
- Overheat Protection: The heater includes an abnormal temperature rise prevention device that automatically shuts off the unit if it overheats. If this occurs, unplug the heater and allow it to cool before attempting to restart.
- Tip-Over Safety Switch: For your safety, the heater is equipped with a safety power cut-off device that activates if the unit is accidentally tipped over. Ensure the heater is upright during operation.
- Children and Pets: Keep children and pets away from the heater. The surface of the heater can become hot during operation.
- Flammable Materials: Do not use the heater near flammable liquids, gases, or materials.
- Ventilation: Do not cover the heater or block its ventilation openings. This can lead to overheating.
- Environmental Compliance: This product is compliant with the EU RoHS Directive and Japan's J-Moss, meaning it does not use specific hazardous substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, or hexavalent chromium.
3. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your TESY Oil Radiator Heater:
- Unpack: Carefully remove the heater and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
- Attach Casters: The heater comes with casters for easy mobility. Attach them securely to the base of the heater according to the diagrams in the separate assembly guide (if provided). Ensure all casters are firmly in place before moving the unit.
- Positioning: Place the heater in the desired location, ensuring it is on a stable, level surface and away from any obstructions or flammable materials.
- Power Connection: Unwind the power cord from the storage area. Plug the double-molded plug directly into a suitable 100V wall outlet. Do not force the plug into the outlet.
4. Operating Instructions
Your TESY Oil Radiator Heater offers flexible control for optimal comfort.
4.1 Power Settings
The heater features three power settings to adjust the heat output:
- Low: 650W
- Medium: 800W
- High: 1450W
Use the power selector switch on the control panel to choose your desired heat level. Higher settings provide faster and more intense heating.
4.2 Thermostat Control
The integrated thermostat allows you to set and maintain a consistent room temperature.
- Turn the thermostat dial clockwise to increase the desired temperature, or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
- The heater will automatically cycle ON and OFF to maintain the set temperature, optimizing energy consumption.
4.3 24-Hour ON/OFF Timer
The electronic 24-hour programmable timer (German-made) allows you to schedule the heater's operation in 15-minute increments over a 24-hour period.
- Locate the timer dial on the control panel. The dial is marked with 24 hours, divided into 15-minute segments.
- Each segment corresponds to a small pin. To set a period for the heater to be ON, push the corresponding pins outwards. To set a period for the heater to be OFF, leave the pins in their inward position.
- Rotate the timer dial to align the current time with the indicator mark.
- Ensure the heater's main power switch is ON and the thermostat is set to a desired temperature. The heater will now operate according to your programmed schedule.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your heater.
- Cleaning: Always unplug the heater and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: When not in use, especially during warmer months, store the heater in a cool, dry place. Use the provided storage cover to protect it from dust. The power cord can be neatly wrapped around the integrated cord storage.
- Oil Leakage: The fins of this heater are joined using resistance welding, which significantly reduces the risk of oil leakage compared to burner-type welding. However, if you notice any oil leakage, discontinue use immediately and contact customer support.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your heater, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Heater does not turn on. | No power supply. Tip-over switch activated. Overheat protection activated. Timer set to OFF. | Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Check the wall outlet. Ensure the heater is upright on a flat surface. Unplug the heater and let it cool down for at least 30 minutes. Adjust the timer settings to an ON period. |
| Heater is on but not heating. | Thermostat set too low. Power setting too low for room size. | Increase the thermostat setting. Select a higher power setting (800W or 1450W). Allow time for the room to heat up. |
| Heater cycles on and off frequently. | Normal thermostat operation. Room temperature reached set point. | This is normal. The heater is maintaining the set temperature. If it's too frequent, slightly lower the thermostat setting. |
| Unusual noise or smell. | First-time use (minor smell is normal). Foreign object inside. Internal malfunction. | A slight odor on first use is normal and will dissipate. If the smell persists or is strong, unplug immediately. Unplug and inspect for foreign objects. If issues persist, discontinue use and contact support. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact TESY customer support.
