If you are in any doubt about following the procedure below, please contact us for technical assistance. The
mains power should be disconnected before any attempts are made to replace the emitter. The following should
be carried out with compliance to the latest electrical regulations. If you are unfamiliar with installing such fix-
tures, contact a qualified electrician to carry out.
1. Ensure the heater and emitter are cool and the power supply is disconnected by removing the plugs from the socket
outlet - all plugs must be removed even if only one emitter is to be replaced.
2. Remove the screws from the terminal box at the back of the emitter you wish to replace and lift off the lid - see Fig. E.

In the event of heater failure, or for spare parts or advice, please contact Tansun Limited in the first instance.
Disconnect from the mains before commencing any maintenance procedure including cleaning.
To ensure optimum heat effectiveness, it is recommended that that the guard and emitter are removed and the reflector
is wiped with a lint-free cloth before reassembling should the reflector show considerable signs of dust or dirt.

Your new emitter should not be handled with bare hands. Remove finger marks with a soft cloth and
methylated spirits or rubbing alcohol. Finger marks will burn into the emitters quartz glass causing
premature failure.

It is very important that your replacement emitter is exactly the same as the one it was supplied with. Failure to fit the
exact same type could cause the heater to fail or even become dangerous especially when used in an outdoor
environment. Please contact Tansun Limited to purchase your replacement emitter and state the model number of the
heater you wish to fit the emitter to.
3. Disconnect the emitter from the connector blocks by unscrewing the screws highlighted above in Fig. F and remove
the white coloured emitter wires from the terminal block.
