The appliance is designed for domestic use and may only be installed and operated in accordance with these instructions for use

1. Do not cover the heater as this may cause overheating.

11. This heater should be installed by qualified electricians in accordance with the current edition of the IEE wiring regulations (BS 7671) and appropriate statutory regulations.
12. Before starting any electrical work or maintenance, always switch off at the mains.
13. For additional safety, remove the fuse or switch off the circuit breaker for the circuit concerned at the mains (fuse box or consumer unit) during maintenance. Ensure that no one else has access that would enable the supply to be inadvertently reconnected.

Installation Instructions

Attention

• The heater must be installed and repaired by qualified technicians.
• Before installation, you must switch off the electricity at the circuit breaker.
• Do not install the heater on the ceiling or in a tilted position.
• The heater must be wall-mounted in the horizontal position.
• Do not mount vertically. This would cause damage to the heater and the warranty would be disqualified.
• Do not install the heater below a wall socket.
• Ensure the heater is installed at least 60cm from any flammable objects (e.g. curtains, clothes).
• Remove the support packaging before using the heater.
• To avoid any damage on the enamel surface, do not press or hit on the front housing of the heater during installation.

Electrical Supply Requirements

• Before using the heater for the first time, check that the supply voltage of your installation complies with the voltage marked on the heater.
• The heater should be wired using 3-core 1.5mm2 cable. To comply with regulations, the supply wiring for this heater must be provided with a means of isolation, which gives a contact separation of at least 3mm in both the line and neutral poles. It is therefore recommended that the cable feeding the heater should be connected to a switched fused connection unit (to BS 1363 Part 4), which should be situated in a convenient position close to the heater.
• Do not connect the heater to a lighting supply circuit.

Installation

1. Bathroom Installation – a minimum distance (horizontal) of not less than 60cm must be maintained between the nearest edge of a bath/shower and heater. If the size of the bathroom does not allow this, the heater should not be installed in the room, as this would impair the user’s safety.

2. Choose a suitable position on the wall so that there is no hidden pipe or cable in the same location. The heater should be mounted at a minimum height of 2m from the floor. Clearance between ceiling or adjacent walls shall be a minimum of 200mm from the heater. Mark the position of the two screw holes at a distance of 250mm on the wall with the heater in a horizontal position. Drill the wall 30mm deep using a suitably sized masonry drill for the wall plugs or screws supplied.

3. Remove the terminal cover by unscrewing the two retaining screws along the top edge of the fixing bracket.

4. The two angle-adjusting screws located at each end of the terminal box assembly should now be loosened slightly. The body of the heater will tilt forward, allowing full access to the fixing screws with a screwdriver. Using the screws and wall plugs supplied, mount the heater to the wall by means of the fixing bracket. Do not over tighten the fixing screws.
   If there is no wall outlet close to the place where heater is installed, please take the following steps instead:
   a) Carefully remove 50mm of the outer sheath of the supply cord. Measure and cut the live (coloured red or brown) and neutral conductors (coloured blue or black) to 40mm. Remove 6mm of insulation from the ends of all three conductor ends. Feed into the unit through one of the grommets (at the ends of the fixing bracket) so that the free end can easily reach the terminals.
   b) Connect the cords of the incoming supply cable as follows:
   The Neutral wire (coloured black or blue) must be connected to the terminal marked N. The Live wire (coloured red or brown) must be connected to the terminal marked L. The Earth wire (coloured green and yellow) must be connected to the terminal marked with the earth symbol. Ensure that the connections are tightened firmly. Refit terminal cover to ensure that insulation material wraps over terminal block assembly

5. Swing the body of the heater up to near the vertical position, in order to enable the tab on the bottom edge of the body to fit behind the terminal cover. Fit the terminal cover in position ensuring that the tabs on the bottom edge are positioned behind the lower lip of the aperture and replace the two terminal cover retaining screws.

6. Set the heater in the position at desired angle. Tighten the two angle adjusting screws.

7. Switch on the circuit breaker or replace the fuse to restore power to the heater.

Operating Instructions

The heater can be switched on using the pull cord switch.
When the heater is switched on, there may be a slight vibration as the element heats up. This is normal and vibration will stop after a few seconds.
Pull the cord switch to select different heat settings as shown on the indicator:

Care & Maintenance

Note: To avoid any damage on the enamel surface, do not press or hit on the front housing of the heater during cleaning and maintenance.

• The only maintenance required is cleaning of the outside surface of the heater.
• Before cleaning the heater, the switch should be in the “OFF” position. Switch off the power supply. Wait until the heater has cooled down.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe the outside of the heater.
• Do not use water, detergents, abrasive cleaning materials or chemical agents (alcohol, petrol etc.) to clean the heater.
