To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury, please follow these instructions:

Heat and Placement:

• This heater is hot when in use and for a short period after use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. When moving the heater, hold it by the base, not the air loop amplifier.

• Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains, at least 0.9m (3 feet) from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear when the heater is plugged in.

• A heater has hot parts inside. Do not use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored or where their vapours are present. Do not use in conjunction with or directly next to an air freshener or similar products.

• Do not use on soft surfaces, such as a bed, where openings may become blocked.

• In order to avoid overheating and fire hazard, do not cover the heater.

Supervision:

• Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or infirm persons and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near young children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the heater or remote control.

• This heater and remote control are not intended for use by young children or infirm persons with reduced physical, sensory or reasoning capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction by a responsible person concerning use of the heater to ensure that they can use it safely.

Location and Environment:

• Suitable for dry locations ONLY. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces. Do not use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations. Never locate the heater where it may fall into a bath or other water container. Do not use or store where it may get wet or in the immediate surroundings of a bath, a shower or a swimming pool.

Electrical Safety:

• Do not locate directly below a mains electricity supply outlet.

• Always plug directly into a wall outlet. Never use with an extension cord or relocateable power tap (outlet/power strip) as overloading may result in the cord overheating and catching fire.

• Do not handle any part of the plug or heater with wet hands.

• Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not stretch the cord or place the cord under strain. Do not run the cord under carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route the cord under furniture or appliances. To avoid a tripping hazard arrange the cord away from traffic area so that it will not be tripped over.

• Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by Dyson or its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

• Check your heater cord and plug connections. A loose fitting outlet can cause the plug to overheat and/or cause a fire. Be sure the plug fits tightly in the outlet. Check frequently during use to make sure plug and outlet are not hot. If hot, discontinue using the heater and have the outlet replaced by a qualified electrician.

Operation and Maintenance:

• To disconnect the heater, turn the controls off, then remove the plug from the outlet. Always unplug the heater when not in use.

• Do not use if the heater malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.

• To prevent a possible fire, do not use with any opening or exhaust blocked, and keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airflow. Do not put any object into the inlet grill or the exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.

• Use only as described in this Dyson Operating Manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

• Choking hazard: the remote control unit contains a small battery. Keep the remote control away from children and do not swallow the battery. If the battery is swallowed seek medical advice at once.

For your safety, this heater is fitted with automatic cut-out switches that operate if the heater tips over or overheats. If the switches operate, unplug the heater and allow it to cool. Before restarting the heater, check and clear any blockages and ensure the heater is on a solid level surface.

It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch; however, if there is a loose fit between the plug and the outlet or the plug becomes very hot, the outlet may need to be replaced. Check with a qualified electrician to replace the outlet.

This heater has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

1. Press the power button to turn the heater on. Each time the heater control is selected, it conducts a 3-minute calibration cycle. Airflow will be automatically controlled during this cycle. Once the calibration cycle is complete, it will revert to the selected airflow speed.

2. To set the temperature, use the thermostat control buttons. Pressing the red button increases the target temperature, and pressing the blue button decreases it. The heater will not operate unless the target temperature is above the current room temperature.

On first use, the heater will default to a temperature 1°C higher than the current room temperature. Thereafter, the heater will remember the last target temperature set.

You can choose between two heating modes by adjusting the airflow speed:

• Spot heat: Select a low flow of air for focused heating.

• Whole room: Select a high flow of air for wider heat distribution. For best results in this mode, turn on the oscillation control.

Press the blue thermostat control button to change the target temperature to 0°C. The power button light will change from red to blue, indicating it is in cool air mode. To adjust the airflow speed in this mode, use the airflow speed control button.

Press the red thermostat control button until the digital display shows the desired target temperature. The power button light will change from blue back to red.

To change the airflow speed, press the airflow speed control button. The digital display will show the new speed; after 3 seconds it will change back to display the target temperature.

To start the heater oscillating, press the oscillation control button. To stop the heater oscillating, press it again. The heater will not oscillate when the control buttons are being pressed.

Carefully hold the base and the top of the air loop amplifier. Tilt forward or backward for the required airflow angle.

The remote control docks magnetically to the top of the heater with the buttons facing down.

To operate, point the remote control toward the front of the base.

The remote has the following buttons:

• Stand by on/off: Turns the unit on or off.

• Airflow speed control: Adjusts the fan speed.

• Oscillation on/off: Starts or stops oscillation.

• Thermostat control: Adjusts the target temperature.

Note: The remote control is available with select models only.

1. Ensure the heater is unplugged and has been allowed to cool.

2. Look for blockages in the air inlet holes and in the small aperture inside the air loop amplifier.

3. Use a soft brush to remove any debris found.

1. Turn the heater into standby mode/off.

2. Unplug from the mains electricity supply.

3. Allow the heater to cool for 1 to 2 hours if it has been in use.

4. To clean, wipe with a dry or damp cloth only.

5. Do not use detergents or polishes to clean the heater.

When not in use, unplug from the mains electricity supply. Store the heater in a dry location and arrange the cord away from the traffic area so that it will not be tripped over or damaged.

A blue light on the heater will flash when the remote’s buttons are pressed. If the blue light stops flashing, it is time to replace the remote’s battery.

CAUTION:

• Turn the heater into stand by mode and unplug from the mains electricity supply before replacing the battery.

• Ensure the polarity is correct when installing the battery.

• Do not attempt to dismantle or charge the battery. Keep away from fire.

• Follow battery manufacturers’ instructions when installing the new battery (battery type CR 2032).

Replacement Steps:

1. Press the end of the remote to release the battery.

2. Replace with a CR 2032 battery.

Remember to always unplug from the mains electricity supply before inspecting for problems.

• If the heater will not operate: First, check that the mains outlet has electricity supply and that the plug is properly inserted into the outlet.

• If power is interrupted: An E1 failure message will be displayed. The heater will need to be turned off and then on again.
