Installation or removal
Below we list some basic requirements and principles which must be followed to ensure long
term, reliable operation of the product.
Before installation or first use:
1. Read the chapter Safety requirements - Installation.
2. Fit the heating element using the correct spanner (size 22).
3. The heating element must be installed at the bottom of the radiator, perpendicular
to the radiator pipes, while preserving space for the proper circulation of the heating medium.
4. Use a suitable heating medium for filling the electric radiator, i.e. (water, special products based
on water and glycol for use in central heating systems, or oil which complies with the require -
ments of the manufacturer of the radiator and heating element).
5. Do not switch the heating element on if it is not fully immersed in radiator heating medium.
6. Make sure an adequate air cushion is present to protect against excessive pressure build up
within the heater (always leave one of the radiator valves open).
7. When filling the radiator with hot liquid insure that the liquid temperature does not exceed 65° C.
8. Follow the subsequent guidelines when connecting the electrical installation:
a. Brown wire — live connection to the circuit (L).
b. Blue wire — connect to neutral (N)
c. Yellow & green wire — earth connection (PE).
9. Before filling the radiator with heating medium, ensure that the heating element is fitted properly
and that it is water tight.
10. In central heating installation radiator must be fitted with the valves enabling disconnection of
the radiator from the rest of the system.
