All electrical appliances produced by the Company are guaranteed for one year against faulty materials or workmanship. This applies only if the appliance has been used for purposes in accordance with the instructions provided and has not been connected to an unsuitable electricity supply, or subject to misuse, neglect, damage or modified or repaired by any person not authorised by us. This guarantee is offered to you as an extra benefit and does not affect your legal rights.

The correct electricity supply voltage is shown on the rating label attached to the appliance.
Reasonable care has been taken to ensure that this guide is accurate at the time of printing. In the interest of progress the Company reserve the right to vary specifications from time to time without notice.

General safety

Our Low Surface Temperature heaters have been designed and built to the NHS requirement for safe surface temperatures which is that no surface which can be touched by the user will be more than 43 degrees C (at a room temperature of 21 degrees C.) This means that our Low Surface Temperature heaters out- perform the European Standard by a significant margin.

The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Warning

Do NOT site the appliance in a corner.
Do NOT handle the appliance with wet hands.
Do NOT use the appliance in workshops or rooms where excessive dust is generated or present.
Ensure that nothing is pushed into the air outlet of this appliance.
Do NOT touch outlet grille when the appliance is in use.
Do NOT cover or restrict the appliance when in use.
Do NOT use the appliance if damaged.
Do NOT leave the appliance unattended where young children are present.

Connection to the Main Supply

Electrical installation should be carried out by a competent installer, preferably registered with NICEIC (National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting) in accordance with the 17 edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations, (BS.7671), and any relevant Local Authority Bye-Laws.

This heater is fitted with a 3-core mains supply cable and must be permanently connected to the electricity supply via a double pole switch having 3mm gap on each pole. There are no exceptions.
A switched Fused Connection unit to BS.1363. Part 4 is a recommended mains supply connection accessory to ensure compliance with safety requirements applicable to fixed-wiring installation.

Note: When switched on for the first time the appliance may emit a slight smell. This is purely the evaporation of a fluid used in the manufacturing process.

WARNING: This appliance must be earthed.

Thermally Operated Cut-Out

The appliance is fitted with a thermally operated cut-out
(TOC). This is a safety device, which switches the heater off if, for any reason, the appliance overheats. The TOC can only be re-set after the appliance has cooled down. In order to re-set the TOC, proceed as follows:

Switch off appliance and leave for approximately 10 minutes.
Switch appliance back on and the TOC will re-set.
Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the TOC control operates again, the appliance should be checked by a competent electrician.

The heater carries a ‘Do Not Cover’ label to warn the user that if the appliance is covered, there is a risk of overheating.

Cleaning

Always disconnect the heater from the mains before cleaning. The heater should not require any maintenance, but it is strongly advised that it is kept clean. An occasional wipe over with a soft cloth is all that should be necessary.

Do NOT use metal or furniture polish on any part of the heater.
Do NOT touch the heater with wet hands or in any way bring water into contact with it.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Mounting

To wall mount, the wall bracket supplied must be used. Remove the wall bracket from the heater, with the chains attached, by removing the 2 securing screws from the top of the rear panel.
Fix the wall bracket to the wall using 4 screws.

Fig 1: Present the heater to the bracket

Fig 2: Locate the heater onto the bottom lugs via the 2 slots in rear panel. Hinge the heater upwards and reattach the chain assembly, then move the heater to the upright position. The link plates should slide under the slotted bracket lip.

Fig 3: Tighten both retaining screws.
The heater must not be located immediately below a fixed socket outlet.

12. Open Window Detection

Ensuring you don’t waste energy on heating the outside world, the heater is equipped with optional open / closed window detection. The heater recognises sudden drops in temperature when a window or a door is opened and turns the heating off to save energy. When the window is closed, the heater will automatically detect a temperature rise, and switch itself back on. Once enabled in the setup menu, the open window detection is fully automatic and does not require any human intervention to be activated.

Setting-up Open Window Detection
The system has been factory set to default time and temperature values. If necessary, all values can be adjusted. When the heating is on, open window detection sensor will automatically switch the heater off when it detects a fall in temperature of 2°C in less than 10 minutes (this temperature can be changed in menu 7 and time in menu 6). If a temperature rise of 2°C in less than 30 seconds is detected, the heater will switch itself back on (this temperature can be changed in menu 9 and time in menu 8).

Press and hold TEMP and MODE together for 5 seconds.
The display will enter the setup menu.
Use TEMP and MODE to change a value.
Use TIME to scroll between the settings.

01 – temperature calibration
The temperature reading has been factory calibrated but if for any reason it needs adjusting
(better accuracy required, to suit different position in the room etc.), the reading can be recalibrated in 0.5 degrees steps.

02 – change between degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit

03 – set minimum temperature
(3.5 deg = frost protection)
When this is set, the heater will operate in any mode should the room temperature fall below the set temperature.

04 – set maximum temperature
When this is set, the maximum temperature in any mode cannot exceed the limit.

05 – open window detection 0 = off, 1 = on

06 – 600 – open window detection time 600 seconds

07 – 2 – temperature drop of 2°C in the detection time

08 – 30 – closed window detection time of 30 seconds

09 – 2 – temperature rise of 2°C in the detection time

14. Optional PLK1 Locking Device

The PLK1 locking device can be used to mechanically lock the controls to prevent tampering with settings. As it is not supplied with the heater, kindly contact our Sales team if required.
