4. Operating Instructions

This heater utilizes convection heating to efficiently warm your space. Follow these steps for operation:

1. Power On: Plug the heater into a suitable electrical outlet. The digital display on the heater should illuminate, indicating it is receiving power.
2. Set Temperature: Use the controls (buttons or touch interface, depending on model) on the heater to set your desired room temperature. The display will show the current and/or target temperature.
3. Heating Cycle: The heater will automatically turn on and off to maintain the set temperature. The convection element heats the air, which then circulates naturally throughout the room.
4. Power Off: To turn off the heater, either use the power button on the unit or unplug it from the wall outlet. For extended periods of non-use, it is recommended to unplug the unit.

Note: It is normal for the heater to emit a slight odor during its first few uses. This will dissipate quickly.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your heater.

• Cleaning: Before cleaning, always unplug the heater and allow it to cool completely. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Dust Removal: Periodically use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove dust from the air intake and exhaust vents.
• Storage: If storing the heater for an extended period, unplug it, clean it thoroughly, and store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord and plug for any signs of damage. If damaged, do not use the heater and contact customer support.
