4.1 Selecting the Mounting Location
Take the following conditions into account during mounting
• The mounting location and mounting method must be suitable for the weight and dimensions
(see section11 „Technical Data“ (39)) of the Sunny Boy.
• Mount on a solid surface.
• The mounting location must be accessible at all times.
• The Sunny Boy must be easy to remove from the mounting location at any time.
• The ambient temperature should be below +40 °C to guarantee optimal operation.
• Do not expose the Sunny Boy to direct sunlight, so as to avoid power reduction due to excessive
heating.
• In a living area, do not mount the unit on
plasterboard walls (or similar) in order to avoid
audible vibrations.
The Sunny Boy can make noises when in use which
can be regarded as a nuisance when installed in a
living area.
DANGER!
Danger to life due to fire or explosion!
Despite careful construction, a fire can occur with electrical devices.
Do not install the Sunny Boy
• on flammable construction materials,
• in areas where highly flammable materials are stored,
• in potentially explosive areas!
CAUTION!
Danger of burn injuries due to hot housing parts!
• Mount the Sunny Boy in such a way that it cannot be touched inadvertently during
operation.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury due to the heavy weight of the Sunny Boy!
• Take the Sunny Boy's weight of 25 kg into account for mounting.
