ELECTRICAL AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
General Requirements
Turn the heater on only when you need heat and avoid any misuse.
Do not use the heater if the ambient temperature exceeds 80°F (25°C).
Before connecting the appliance make sure that the voltage is the same as
indicated on the device and the line supply is corresponding to the relevant
electrical code.
1. The installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with the relevant electrical
code: in USA, National Electrical Code, NFPA 70; in Canada, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, C22.1.
2. The energy supply to the heater must always be properly grounded.
3. The appliance is equipped with a junction box.
4. For a correct installation of the heater it’s necessary to set the unit with a fused switch or circuit breaker.
5. When required by the installation code, to prevent serious harm from an ongoing electric shock, a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) with rated earth leakage operation not exceeding 30mA must be fitted upstream on
the supply line. Additionally, for ensuring a total disconnection of the unit with a full interruption of the contacts
in all poles, it’s necessary to install a category III combined circuit breaker with contact opening distance of at
least 3 mm.
Additional Information
1. For supply connections, use wires suitable for at least 167°F (75°C) with the section AWG16. Use copper wire
only.
2. Do not turn the heater on if it’s placed or lying down on any surface.
3. The color of the radiator could change from dark black to faded black when used inside smoky or polluted
environments or at an ambient temperature above the 80°F (25°C). Such a color variation does not interfere
with the functionality of the heater.
4. A safety clearance 40“ (100cm) should always be maintained in front of the heaters.
5. The heater is not equipped with a power cord.
6. Keep the combustible material away from the heater.
7. There are no serviceable parts inside the heater.
