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 16
edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations, (BS.7671) and any relevant Local Authority Bye-Laws.
The heater is fitted with a 2-core mains supply cable and should be permanently connected to the
electricity supply via a double pole switch having 3 mm gap on each pole.
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.

ONTROLS
The BHM1 and BHM1T have a heat loading of 1 kW and the BHM2T has a heat loading of 2 kW.
The heater is controlled by a pullcord operated on/off switch. A neon indicator when lit shows that the
unit is operational.
The appliance is fitted with an Electronic Safety Control (ES). This is a safety device which switches
off the heater if for any reason the appliance overheats. The ES Control can only be re-set after the
appliance has cooled down. In order to re-set the ES Control proceed as follows:-
•
Switch off appliance by means of pullcord and leave for approximately 5 minutes.
•
Switch appliance back on and ES Control will re-set.
•
Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the ES Control operates again, the appliance
should be checked by a competent electrician.

ONTROL
The BHM1T and BHM2T are fitted with a thermostat.
To set the thermostat to the required temperature, rotate the control knob to the highest setting (N
o
6).
When the desired room temperature is reached, rotate the control knob slowly in the opposite direction and
when the thermostat ‘clicks’ off, leave the control at this setting. Thereafter, the fan heater will control the
heat output automatically.
To set the heater to the Frost Watch mode, rotate the thermostat control knob fully to the lowest
setting (N
o
1). Thereafter the heater will trip in if the temperature drops sufficiently. The heater needs to
be in the ‘ON’ mode with the neon indicator light illuminated for this function to operate.
