4. Setup

Your Aigostar Tummie 33JIE radiator comes with casters that need to be attached before first use. Follow these steps:

1. Carefully unpack the radiator and ensure all components are present.
2. Turn the radiator upside down on a soft, non-abrasive surface to avoid scratching the finish.
3. Locate the caster assemblies. Each assembly typically consists of a U-shaped bracket and two wheels.
4. Align the U-shaped brackets with the designated slots on the bottom of the radiator, usually at each end.
5. Insert the threaded rods of the casters into the holes on the brackets and secure them with the provided nuts or clips. Ensure they are firmly attached.
6. Once both caster assemblies are securely attached, carefully turn the radiator upright.
7. Place the radiator on a firm, level surface, away from curtains, furniture, or other combustible materials. Ensure there is at least 3 feet (0.9 m) of clear space around the heater.
8. Unwind the power cord completely before plugging it into a 240V AC electrical outlet.

Note: While the wheels are designed for mobility, they are made of hard plastic. Exercise caution when moving the radiator on delicate surfaces like polished parquet floors to prevent scratches.
