THIS CARD IS ALSO YOUR INSTALLATION TEMPLATE

Installation Steps

1.  (See A →) Using this card in its open state as a template, position the card in the area of the ceiling where  you want to mount your Airflow ®3-in-1 unit and draw around the edges with a pencil to mark the hole
   cutting size.

2. (See B →) Use a saw to cut the section along the drawn lines.

3.  The lamp surround easily unclips from the main body by lifting gently from any side. Remove the lamp surround and heat reflector globes to avoid damage from knocks and vibrations.

4.  (Optional) Fit the back draught shutter to the top of the Airflow ® 3-in-1 unit. If required, screw the shutter into place in three positions around the perimeter with self-drilling screws.

5.  (See C →) Pull both side springs inward so that the Airflow ® 3-in-1 unit can pass through the hole without damaging the plaster, then insert the Airflow ® 3-in-1  unit through the hole.

6.  Once the Airflow® 3 in1 unit is in position, return the side springs to their original position to support the Airflow ® 3-in-1  unit in the ceiling.
   Note: Springs are adjusted to suit either a 10 mm or 13 mm plasterboard ceiling.

7.  (See D →) Clip the lamp surround back onto the body, making sure that both clips snap into place.

8.  (See E →) Screw the center globe into place. The lamp surround has been shaped to position the heat reflector globes correctly in the main body.

9.  Screw the four large heat reflector globes through the lamp surround holes, tightening firmly to ensure a
   good electrical contact.

Wiring

1.  Decide the best position for the switch plate, then set and mount it. Make sure to click the switches into the backing plate in the desired order.
2.  Connect wiring to switches as shown in the diagram above.
3.  Remove the screws from the electrical terminal cover on the Airflow®3-in-1 unit and put them aside.  Wire according to the table beside the terminal strip. Remove a knockout in the terminal cover to prevent fouling of the incoming cable when the cover is fitted. Replace the cover and cover screws.
4.  Check that power is switched on and that all switches activate properly according to their marked function.
