and that no furniture is placed on top of it. Do not lead the cord around sharp corners
and do not roll it up too tightly after use!
7. If possible, do not use an extension cord, as this poses the risk of overheating and fire. If
the use of an extension cord is unavoidable, then make sure it is an undamaged,
approved extension cord with a minimum diameter of 2 x 2.5 mm² and a minimum
permissible power of 2000 Watt/10Amp. To prevent overheating, always fully extend the
cord!
8. To prevent the circuit being overloaded and fuses being blown, make sure no other
appliances are connected to the same socket or wired to the same electrical circuit as the
heater.
9. Do not use the heater outdoors and do not use it in spaces smaller than 6 m².
10. A heater contains hot and/or glowing and sparking components. Do not, therefore, use it
in areas where fuels, paint, flammable liquids and/or gasses etc. are stored.
11. Do not place the heater near, under, or directly opposite a socket and do not place near
an open fire or other heat source.
12. Do not use the heater near or directly opposite furniture, animals, curtains, paper,
clothes, bedding or other inflammable objects. Keep them at least 1 metre away from
the heater!
13. Never cover a heater! The heater’s air inlets and outlets should never be obstructed in
any way, so as to prevent the possibility of fire. Never use the heater to dry clothes and
do not place anything on top of the heater. Do not place it on soft surfaces such as beds
or deep-pile carpets, as they can block openings.
14. Make sure that the air around the heater can circulate freely. Do not place the heater
too close to walls or large objects and do not place it under shelves, cupboards, and
similar.
15. Prevent foreign objects from entering the heater via the venting or exhaust openings as
this may lead to electric shock, fire or damage.
16. Never leave the heater unattended when switched on. Always switch if off before
removing the plug from the socket. Always unplug the heater when not in use! Pull on
the plug to remove from the socket, never pull on the cord!
17. Always switch the heater off, unplug it and leave to cool down before:
- cleaning the heater
- carrying out maintenance on the heater
- touching or moving the heater. Use the handle for this!
18. This machine gets hot when it is in use. To prevent burns, do not let bare skin come into
contact with hot surfaces.
19. Do not use a timer or a similar product to automatically switch on the heater. Always
perform safety checks before using the heater!
20. Close supervision is necessary when the product is used near children or incapacitated
persons. The device is not suitable for use by persons (including children) with a physical,
sensual or mental limitation or a lack of experience and knowledge, irrespective of
whether they are being supervised or have been issued with instructions in relation to
the use of the device by a person who is responsible for their safety. Always ensure that
children cannot play with the device.
21. Keep the heater clean. Dust, dirt and/or a build up of deposits in the heater are a
common cause of overheating. Make sure these deposits are removed regularly.
22. Do not turn on the appliance if you have discovered damage to the appliance, cord or
plug, if the appliance is malfunctioning, if it has been dropped or if there are signs of any
other defect. Return the complete product to the vendor or to a certified electrician for
