FUNCIÓN DE PERSIANA (LOUVER): (Figura 4)
Este Calefactor posee una persiana en la parrilla frontal superior que
permite el ajuste vertical del flujo de aire. Deslice el control de la persiana
hacia arriba o hacia abajo para ajustar el flujo de aire a voluntad.
FUNCIONAMIENTO
1. Cuidadosamente retire el Calefactor de la bolsa y de la caja.
2. Coloque el Calefactor sobre una superficie firme y plana.
ADVERTENCIA:
Los tacos de plástico o hule, tales como las
patas de esta unidad, pueden pegarse a la superficie de los muebles
y/o a los pisos de madera. La unidad podría dejar un residuo capaz
de oscurecer, manchar o dejar marcas permanentes en el acabado
de ciertas superficies de muebles, incluyendo superficies de madera
y/o pisos de madera.
3. Conecte el cable a un tomacorriente de 120 voltios.
Asegúrese que el enchufe encaje firmemente en el
tomacorriente.
Cuando los enchufes quedan flojos dentro de
los tomacorrientes, podrían deslizarse parcial
o completamente fuera del tomacorriente
con el menor movimiento del cable adosado.
Los tomacorrientes en este estado podrían
sobrecalentarse y representar un peligro de
incendio grave; si queda cubierto por una cortina
o tela, el peligro de incendio es todavía mayor.
4. Cuando el Calefactor se conecte por primera vez, se oirá un “bip” y
la Luz de Encendido se encenderá indicando que hay electricidad
en la unidad. La Luz de Encendido permanecerá encendida hasta
que el Calefactor sea desconectado del tomacorriente eléctrico.
5. ENCIENDA el Calefactor oprimiendo el Botón de Encendido.
6. Cuando se lo encienda por primera vez, el Calefactor mostrará la
temperatura actual de la habitación en ° Fahrenheit. Oprima los
botones ( ) y ( ) al mismo tiempo para cambiar la pantalla a °
Celsius. Oprima los dos botones al mismo tiempo nuevamente
para cambiar la pantalla y volver a ° Fahrenheit.
7. La unidad estará en calor ALTO (1500 vatios) y mostrará la
temperatura actual de la habitación (Figura 1)
8. Oprima el botón de Modo para calor BAJO (750 vatios).
9. Vea la sección del termostato para las instrucctiones del control automático.
10. Para APAGAR el Calefactor, presione el
Botón de Encendido y
desconecte el Calefactor del tomacorriente eléctrico.
TEMPORIZADOR: (Figura 2)
La función de temporizador puede ser activada cuando la pantalla
del Calefactor está en cualquier velocidad o temperatura. Esta
función le permite fijar la cantidad de tiempo que el Calefactor
estará funcionando antes de apagarse automáticamente, de 1
hora a 7 horas. Presionar el
Botón de Temporizador aumentará la
cantidad de tiempo, en combinaciones de 1, 2 y 4 horas. Oprimir
continuamente el botón provocará que el temporizador quede fijado
para 7 horas. El Calefactor se apagará cuando el tiempo fijado haya
transcurrido. La unidad puede volver a encenderse presionando el
Botón de Encendido.
TERMOSTATO:
Oprimir el botón ( ) o el botón ( ) le permite a usted fijar la
temperatura deseada de la habitación. Para mayor eficiencia, el
termostato sólo funcionará en calor ALTO.
(Figura 3)
1. Oprima el botón ( ) para aumentar la temperatura fijada
deseada o presione el botón ( ) para reducir la temperatura
fijada deseada.
2. Cuando la temperatura del aire alcance los 2° por encima de la
temperatura fijada, el Calefactor se apagará.
3. Cuando la temperatura del aire alcance un 1° por debajo de la
temperatura fijada, el Calefactor se encenderá.
NOTA: Es normal que el “ventilador” del calefactor funcione durante
aproximadamente 15 segundos después que el calefactor se haya
apagado tras alcanzar la temperatura fijada.
