6. This device is exclusively intended to be used for heating
workplaces such as workshops, garages, storage spaces, etc. You
must only use the device for this purpose.
7. The connection voltage and frequency, as given on the device, must
correspond to that of the socket to be used. The electrical socket to
be used must be an earthed connection. The electrical installation
must be protected via a 30 mA earth leakage circuit breaker. The
electrical socket that you are using must be to hand at all times in
order to be able to remove the plug from the socket in the event of
an emergency.
8. To avoid overloading and/or fuses being blown, do not use any
other equipment on the same socket or electrical group as the one
used for the device.
9. Unroll the electric cable for the device fully before inserting the plug
into the socket and ensure that the electrical cable does not come
into contact with the fireplace or get hot.
Do not run the electrical cable under carpet, cover with mats,
runners or similar and do not place in areas that are walked on
frequently. Ensure that it cannot be stepped on and that no
furniture is placed on top of it. Do not bend the electrical cable
around sharp corners and do not roll up too tightly after use!
Prevent the electrical cable coming into contact with oil, solvents
and sharp objects. Check the cable and plug regularly for damage.
Do not bend or pinch the electrical cable and do not wind it around
the device; this could damage the insulation!
10. The use of an extension cable is not advised as this can lead to
overheating and fire. If the use of an extension cable is
unavoidable, make sure that it is not damaged and that it is an
approved extension cable with a minimum diameter of 3x2,5 mm²
and a minimum permitted capacity of 2500 Watt (EK2K) & 3500
Watt (EK3K). Always fully extend the cable in order to prevent
overheating.
11. Only connect the device to a fixed socket. Do not use multi-plug
adapters or similar.
12. During use, the plug may begin to feel warm; this is normal. If it’s
really warm, there may be something wrong with the socket. Please
contact your electrician.
13. Always turn off the device and remove the plug from the power
socket: Never turn the device off using the plug!
