Safety warnings and precautions

Main risks

  • Hot surfaces that may cause burns from prolonged contact, especially in children.
  • Overheating and potential ignition if covered completely with textiles or overloaded.
  • Risk of electric shock in electric models if the wiring, the control unit or the junction box becomes wet or is damaged.
  • Water leaks in models connected to the heating system, with possible risk of burns, slips and property damage.
  • Detachment or falling if the wall fixing is inadequate or the wall structure is unsuitable.
  • Impacts and trapping injuries when handling the radiator during installation or unpacking.
  • Damage to walls or tiles if drilling without first checking for hidden services.

Safe use

  • Install and connect the radiator in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions; electrical or plumbing work must be carried out by qualified personnel.
  • Before drilling, check the wall strength and that there are no hidden cables or pipes; use wall plugs and screws suitable for the wall type.
  • Do not cover the surface completely; hang towels loosely so as not to block heat dissipation.
  • Keep flammable materials (aerosols, solvents, curtains or furniture) away from hot areas.
  • In bathrooms, avoid direct splashes onto electrical components and observe safety distances from baths and showers.
  • Do not stand or sit on it or hang additional weight; use it only to heat or warm towels.
  • For plug-in models, connect directly to an earthed wall socket; do not use extension leads or multi-socket adaptors.
  • Switch off and allow to cool before cleaning; use a soft, slightly damp cloth and do not use water jets.
  • On first start-up or after a period without use, ventilate the room and increase the temperature gradually.

Storage and maintenance

  • Before installation, store it indoors in a dry place, in its packaging, protected from impacts, moisture and dust.
  • Do not stack weight on the radiator or rest it on tubes or elements that may deform.
  • Clean when cold with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive products, scouring pads and corrosive cleaners.
  • Periodically check the wall fixing, brackets and screws; tighten if you detect any looseness.
  • Check for leaks and corrosion at the connections; in water systems, bleed air if required and always with the circuit cold.
  • For electric models, inspect the cable, plug and controls; if you detect a burning smell, sparking or abnormal heating, switch off and do not use until it has been checked by qualified personnel.
  • If it is not going to be used for a season, disconnect the power or close the valves and protect against frost in unheated rooms.

Restrictions of use

  • Not suitable for drying garments treated with solvents, oils or flammable substances.
  • Do not cover with covers or pile up thick textiles that completely block ventilation.
  • Do not use outdoors or in areas exposed to rain or direct dripping.
  • Do not modify the appliance, the wiring, the plug, the valves or the thermostat; do not drill the radiator body for accessories not intended.
  • Do not use if it is loose, unstable, leaking or if the cable is damaged.
  • Do not allow use without supervision by children or persons with reduced thermal sensitivity.
  • Do not use aerosol air fresheners, solvents or spray cleaners near the radiator when it is hot.
