Additional safety features 1. Overheating protection: a safety device switches the fan heater off if it accidentally overheats (e.g.: air intake and outlet grilles obstructed, filter clogged). In this case remove the plug from the power outlet and leave it unplugged for a few minutes, eliminate the cause of overheating, then plug the fan heater back and turn it on again. 2. Tip over safety switch: a safety tip-over switch turns the ceramic heater off if it tips over or is positioned in an improper way that could jeopardize safety. The appliance emits a beep and the display will show a blinking dot. After the appliance has been restored in the vertical position it will take just few seconds to start on again. Note: To avoid overheating the appliance, do not cover it. TROUBLE-SHOOTING In case "PF" is displayed and a warning sound is emitted, there is a fault on the temperature sensor. If the problem persists contact the Service Center. If the appliance shuts off unexpectedly: - Check that the appliance is receiving power. - Check that the appliance is in the vertical position and on a flat surface, as the safety tip-over switch may have been tripped. - Check the temperature set and the timer: the appliance may be off because the set temperature has been reached or the time set on the timer has elapsed.
