The Sorrento IP heater produces radiant heat like the sun, warming people and objects rather than the air in between. It is mounted on an
adjustable bracket that allows the heat to be directed exactly where it is required. Its attractive, lightweight design means that it is effective yet
unobtrusive. The Sorrento IP heater is designed for indoor and outdoor use so is therefore weatherproof.
Please read the following instructions carefully before use. The safety of this heater is guaranteed only by its correct usage in
accordance with these instructions, therefore it is recommended that they are retained for future reference.

Use MCB Type 3.
C a u t i o n
Before using this appliance:
Check that the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to the mains supply voltage.
Do not locate the heater immediately below a socket outlet.
Ensure that the heater has been securely fastened in its final mounting position.
Remove the plug from the mains socket (or disconnect pole switch) during installation, cleaning and/or replacing the
emitter and always ensure that the emitter is cool.
Do not handle the halogen emitter with bare hands. If it is inadvertently touched, remove finger marks with a soft
cloth and methylated spirit or alcohol. Otherwise, the marks will burn into the quartz emitter causing premature heater
failure.
Do not use an extension cable with this product.
Keep the mains cable away from the body of the heater which will get hot during use.
Do not cover or obstruct the heater while it is in use.
The heater is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised
by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the heater safely.
Do not insert any object through any slot or opening in the heater.
Do not use if guard is not present.
Do not install less than the minimum mounting distance from the floor.
Warning - this appliance must be connected to a supply that is earthed!
C o n f i g u r a t i o n s
The Sorrento IP heater is a single lamp unit - it has one lamp. It can be installed as a single unit or joined to one or two more single units. It
is supplied with joining bars that connect the heaters together to increase the size and output of the installation. The maximum number of
single units that can be joined together is three. Please read the section ‘assembling’ for information on how this should be done.

Warning - this appliance must be connected to an earthed supply.
The wired versions (210 UK, 210 EU, 215 UK, 215 EU, 220 UK & 220 EU) are fitted with 5 metres of supply cable and a moulded plug,
therefore it is unnecessary to remove the terminal box in order to carry out normal installation of these models.
All unwired versions (210, 215 & 220) should be installed by a suitably qualified electrician, following the instructions below.
All installations must be in accordance with the latest I.E.E safety regulations or equivalent.
We recommend using a RCD where applicable.
If self wiring, a large double pole switch with a 3mm contact disconnection should be fitted.
If the supply cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similar qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.
Please observe the minimum safe distance between the heater body and any inflammable surfaces.
M a i n t e n a n c e
In the event of heater failure, or for spare parts or advice, please contact the manufacturer 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 is removed and the reflector is wiped with a lint-free cloth should
the reflector show considerable signs of dust or dirt.
H a n d l i n g t h e R e p l a c e m e n t L a m p
Your new lamp should not be handled with bare hands.
Remove finger marks with a soft cloth and methylated spirits or alcohol. Finger marks will burn into quartz causing premature lamp failure.
Y o u r R e p l a c e m e n t L a m p
It is very important that your replacement lamp 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 lamp and state the model number of the heater you wish to fit the lamp to.

R e p l a c i n g t h e L a m p
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 lamp. The following should be carried out with compliance to the latest IEE
regulations. If you are unfamiliar with installing such fixtures, contact a qualified electrician to carry out.
1. Ensure the heater and lamp are cool and the power supply is disconnected by removing the plugs from the socket outlet - both plugs must be
removed even if only one lamp is to be replaced.
2. Remove the screws from the terminal box at the back of the lamp you wish to replace and lift off the lid - see Fig. N.
3. Disconnect the lamp from the connector blocks by unscrewing the screws highlighted above in Fig. P and remove the white coloured lamp
wires from the terminal block.
4. At the back of the heater, remove the plate holding the terminal box by removing the two fixing screws as shown in Fig. Q.
Fig. N
Fig. P
5. Pull the lamp wires one at a time through the plate to remove as shown in Fig. R.
6. At the front of the heater, the guard in front of the lamp you are replacing should be removed by gently pulling it away from the heater so it
prises out of its locating holes at each end (Fig. S).
