If it is 10.00 AM for example, turn the numbered programmer disk until the number 10 is alligned coincides with the pointer ▲ marked on the programmer. Set the periods of time during which you want the appliance to operate by pushing the teeth towards the center. Each notch corresponds to a period of 15 min. At the end of this procedure, red sectors corresponding to the operating periods can be seen below the notches. - When programmed, the appliance will function automatically each day at the times set. (Important: the heater must be plugged in for the timer to keep the correct time). - To modify programming, return the red teeth to the initial position and set the new opera- ting periods. - To use the appliance without programming, push all the teeth into the centre. In this case, to turn the appliance off completely, as well as turning off the switches, also unplug from the mains to avoid the programmer operating uselessly.

Important: Never overload the towel warming bar (E) and avoid drying delicate fabrics. ATTENTION A safety device switches the fan heater off if it accidentally overheats. To reset the unit for normal operation, unplug the heater for a few minutes, and eliminate the cause of over-heating. 5
