During the first operation:
As the heating elements are covered with a light film of oil at the factory for reasons of
protection, you will notice a slight smell of burning and possibly also some smoke
during the first operation. This is quite normal at first and is caused by the fact that the
oil film is now burnt by the heating elements during operation.
Important safety instructions:
- The heater is not suitable for use outdoors or in other wet or damp environments !
- Please note that the heater can become very hot during operation, so keep a
sufficient distance from flammable or easily combustible objects at all times !
