ATTENTION: 

IN ORDER TO AVOID 

OVERHEATING DO NOT 

COVER THE HEATER

Do not place objects within 
300mm of the front of the 
heater and 150mm (min. 
75mm) either side.

  Where particularly vulnerable people are likely to be left 

unsupervised in the vicinity of the heater we recommend that 
a guard is fi tted around the heater, as is normal with heating 
appliances in similar circumstances. A range of guards 
specially designed for Dimplex heaters is available.  

  If you require further information on these guards, please see 

contact details on back page 

of the Operating Instructions.

  CAUTION: DO NOT COVER SURFACES OF THE 

HEATER AND DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE AIR 
OUTLET GRILLE.

Surfaces of the heater should not be covered or obstructed as 

• 

this can cause excessive temperatures that can be hazardous 
and may cause safety cut-outs to operate. This will stop the 
heater from working.
Do not put clothes, fabrics or any combustible materials on the 

• 

heater.

•  Do not position the heater where objects can come to within 

250mm (10”) of the top or 75mm (3”) of the ends of the heater 
casing.  Do not place objects within 300mm of the front of the 
heater.

•  Curtains must not come to within 75mm (3”) of the top of the 

heater.

•  Do not sit or stand on the heater.

Do not place objects in contact with the heater.

• 

To  maintain  stability,  it  is  essential  that  the  heater  is  placed 

• 

on a level surface and care should be taken to avoid irregular 
surfaces,  such  as  may  result  from  carpets  or  tiled  surrounds 
partially protruding under the heater.
Choose appropriate fi xings to securely attach the heater to the wall, 

• 

see section titled ‘Installing the heater’ for detailed information.
This  heater  must  be  installed  where  it  is  impossible  for  its  

• 

switches and other controls to be touched by a person using a 
bath or shower.
IMPORTANT - Due to the newness of materials the heater will 

• 

produce a smell for the fi rst few days of operation. Rooms must 
be well ventilated and young children, caged birds, or persons 
with respiratory complaints must not remain in close proximity 
to the heater during the fi rst 48 hours of operation.

  PLEASE NOTE: THIS HEATER IS VERY HEAVY AND MUST 

BE SECURELY FIXED TO A SOUND WALL.

•  If, during any reassembly of the heater, a part of the thermal 

insulation shows damaged or deterioration which may impair 
safety, it should be replaced with an identical part.

•  

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE WALL 
FIXINGS BE LOOSENED ON THIS HEATER BEFORE THE 
BRICKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM ITS CORE.

•  Quantum heaters are not suitable for installation in bathrooms, 

shower rooms etc. or in areas of high humidity.
