IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE

 

 

 

Three identical wall mounting brackets are secured to the base of the 
heater with a fixing screw. To wall mount appliance, first remove the 
brackets as follows :

WARNING  - DO NOT USE THIS HEATER IN THE IMMEDIATE  
SURROUNDINGS OF A BATH, A SHOWER OR A SWIMMING POOL. 

Lay the heater on its back. Following the sequence in Fig. 1 – identify 
and remove the fixing screw securing the brackets located beside Mains 
Cable as shown in (a), then pull out brackets and rotate them to 
disengage them from the slot (b).  

 

WARNING – THIS HEATER MUST NOT BE LOCATED IMMEDIATELY 
BELOW A FIXED SOCKET OUTLET. 

 

DO NOT USE THE HEATER UNTIL THE FEET OR WALL BRACKETS

FOLLOW these instructions carefully. 

 

 

 

NEVER cover or obstruct in any way the heat outlet slots at the top 
of the heater or the air inlet slots in the base of the heater. 

 
 

 

The heater carries a warning ‘DO NOT COVER’ to alert the user to the 
risk of fire that exists if the heater is accidentally covered. 

 
 

 

 

If young children, the aged or infirm are likely to be left in the vicinity 
of the heater, we advise that adequate precautions should be taken.- 

 

(a)

We recommend that a guard be fitted to ensure contact with the 
heater is avoided and objects cannot be inserted into the product.

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

making sure that there is 

at least

 230 mm below the heater and 

at least

 

450 mm above the heater of unobstructed space. See also ‘Positioning 
the heater’.

fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362 
must be used. If any other type of plug is used, a 15 amp fuse must be 
fitted in the plug, the adaptor, or at the distribution board.
