Safety & Care
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.

appliance is in use.
Do NOT cover or restrict any aperture of
the appliance when in use.
Do NOT use the appliance if damaged.
Do NOT leave the appliance
unattended where young children are

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 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.
If Your Heater Does Not Work
Check that power is available to the heater. The LED
light should be illuminated
Check that the thermal cut-out has not operated.
Follow the reset instructions given under the section
headed ‘Thermally Operated Cut-out’.
Check that the fuse in the spur unit has not blown. This
can be done by replacing the fuse with another
suitable fuse.
Should none of the above remedies work, then telephone
the helpline number shown in these instructions (UK ONLY).
Do not attempt to repair the heater.
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 17th 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

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.
