SAFETY WARNINGS
The party-tent heater must only be used in the manner for which it has been designed:
as a hanging heater for party-tents, verandas and similar covered outdoor areas in a
private setting. Never use it for other purposes such as drying clothing or textiles or
other materials/products/people or animals. The party-tent heater is not intended to be
used in commercial situations and must not be used at building sites or in
greenhouses, stables etc.
The carbon heating lamps are fragile so handle the party-tent heater with care. Avoid
bumping the device, letting it fall etc.
This party-tent heater must be installed according to the guidelines outlined later in this
booklet.
The party-tent heater emits a very intense heat. Do not expose people (particularly old
people or children) to direct heat. This also applies to animals.
The party-tent heater should never be installed or used in the vicinity of flammable
objects. This may include curtains, furniture, tent canvases etc. It may not be located
too close to a socket and should not be used in a damp area such as a bath/shower
room, by a swimming pool etc.
Never use the infrared heater in spaces which house explosive or flammable items.
In order to reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, the party-tent heater should never
be used with a timer or another device that switches the device on or off automatically.
Never leave the device unsupervised during use.
Never cover the party-tent heater! Never hang anything over it!
Ensure that the electrical cable is laid without any kinks. If the cable comes into
contact with parts of the heater or falls within the range of the radiation, it could melt.
This poses a serious fire risk!
Never lay the electrical cable behind shelves or under clothing and ensure that it
cannot become trapped or cause a stumbling risk. Prevent the cable coming into
contact with the hot elements of the infrared heater.
Try to avoid the use of an extension cable. If this cannot be avoided, then choose a
lead that is as short as possible with power of at least 10A and 2000W (type 1502) or
16A and 2500W (type 2100). The cable must be completely uncoiled if a cable-winding
device is used.
Ensure that the party-tent heater never falls into water or any other fluid and never
submerse it. Never touch the device with wet hands.
Never stick your fingers, pencils or any other object into the party-tent heater grille.
The grille gets very hot during use and can only be touched when the heater has
cooled down fully.
Make sure there is close supervision if this device is used when there are children,
incapacitated persons or pets present. Do not allow children to play with the device.
This device is not suitable to be operated by children or those with physical, sensory or
mental disabilities or by anyone who does not have knowledge about or experience
with the device. Ensure that every user has ready the instruction booklet. Keep
children and pets out of the vicinity of the device.
Switch the party-tent heater off and remove the plug from the socket
- after every use of if you are leaving the location
- before moving or cleaning the device
- if it breaks down or needs maintenance
