4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Power Connection

Plug the heater into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is rated for 1500W and 230V AC. Avoid using extension cords if possible; if one is necessary, ensure it is heavy-duty and rated for the heater's power consumption.

4.2 Power Settings

The heater offers three power levels to adjust the heat output:

• Setting 1 (Low): Provides gentle heat for smaller spaces or maintaining warmth.
• Setting 2 (Medium): Offers moderate heat for average-sized rooms.
• Setting 3 (High): Delivers maximum heat output for rapid warming of larger areas.

Use the power selector switch on the control panel to choose your desired heat level.

4.3 Thermostat Control

The adjustable thermostat allows you to set and maintain a desired room temperature. Turn the thermostat dial clockwise to increase the temperature setting and counter-clockwise to decrease it. The heater will cycle on and off to maintain the selected temperature.

4.4 Overheat Protection

The Ardes AR4R07S is equipped with an internal overheat protection system. If the heater's internal components reach an unsafe temperature, the heater will automatically shut off. If this occurs, unplug the heater, allow it to cool down for at least 30 minutes, and check for any obstructions before restarting.

4.5 Anti-Tip Safety Feature

For added safety, the heater includes an anti-tip switch. If the heater is accidentally knocked over, this switch will automatically cut power to the unit, preventing potential hazards. Ensure the heater is placed on a stable, level surface to avoid accidental tipping.
