The heater can be installed horizontally or vertically, ensuring a minimum clearance of 1.8 meters from the ground and 0.5 meters from the ceiling and adjacent walls. Specific instructions are provided for mounting the heater using the supplied bracket, including drilling holes and securing the device to the wall. It is crucial to ensure the power cord does not touch the heater body and to use a weatherproof qualified outlet for outdoor installations. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity and safe operation of the Devola Wi-Fi Patio Heater.
- Cleaning: The exterior surface of the heater is the only part that requires cleaning. It should be wiped with a wrung and damp cloth. Strong abrasives or solvent cleaners should be avoided as they can damage plastic parts.
- Heating Element Care: The heating element should not be touched with bare hands, as residues can affect its lifespan. If accidentally touched, marks should be removed with a soft damp cloth.
- Storage: When not in use, especially for extended periods or in humid/high salinity areas, the heater should be cleaned, dried, and stored in safe packaging in a dry place, out of reach of children.
- Professional Cleaning: If the inside of the heater or the heating element is covered with dust or dirt, it must be cleaned by a qualified service provider. The heater should not be operated in this condition.
- Safety Precautions During Maintenance: Always disconnect the heater from the power supply and allow it to cool completely before cleaning or performing any adjustments to avoid burns.
- No User-Serviceable Parts: Users should not attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions of the heater. If the heater is damaged or defective, it must be returned to the retailer for service.
- Power Cord Inspection: Regularly check the power cord and plug for wear or damage. Damaged wires, plugs, or loose sockets should not be used. The heater should never be used if it has failed, been discarded, or damaged for any reason. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, service department, or a qualified professional to avoid danger.
