INSTALLATION

GENERAL

This heater is suitable for Do It Yourself installation. It can be either wall mounted (fixed installation) or freestanding
by mounting castors in accordance with these instructions. A phillips head screwdriver is required for fixed
installation. For wall installation other tools and hardware may be required, depending on the wall material. 

WALL INSTALLATION

The clearance from the sides, front and top of the heater must be at least 100mm as shown in the diagram below.  

1. Ensure the heater is unplugged from the power socket outlet and the ‘on / off’ switch is in the off position before

commencing wall mounting.

2. Loosen the locking latch on the taller leg of the mounting bracket and detach the mounting bracket from the

back of the panel heater.

3. Position the mounting bracket on the wall. Ensure the two bottom mount holes are at least 175mm from the

floor and drill holes as required.

• This heater MUST NOT be located immediately below a socket-outlet.

• This heater MUST be positioned within one metre of a socket-outlet to ensure the flexible cord

and plug can reach it.

• This heater is NOT designed to be built in.

• DO NOT attach the castors to the heater base for wall installations.

• The heater is suitable for installation in non-communal baths and shower areas or bathrooms. It

is to be installed such that switches and other controls cannot be touched by a person in the bath
or shower. Consult your licensed electrical trades person for installation in communal baths and
shower areas or bathrooms.
