Safety & Care
Our Low Surface Temperature heaters have been
designed and built to the NHS requirement for safe surface
temperatures which is that no surface which can be
touched by the user will be more than 43 degrees C (at a
room temperature of 21 degrees C.) This means that our
Low Surface Temperature heaters out-perform the
European Standard by a significant margin.
The appliance is not intended for use by persons

Connection to the Main Supply
Electrical installation should be carried out by a
competent installer, preferably registered with NICEIC
(National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation
Contracting) in accordance with the 16 edition of the
IEE Wiring Regulations, (BS.7671), and any relevant
Local Authority Bye-Laws. This heater is fitted with a 3-

Note: When switched on for the first time the appliance may
emit a slight smell. This is purely the evaporation of a fluid used
in the manufacturing process.
WARNING: This appliance must be earthed.
Thermally Operated Cut-Out
The appliance is fitted with an Over Temperature Switch (OTS).
This is a safety device, which switches the heater off if, for any
reason, the appliance overheats. The OTS can only be re-set
after the appliance has cooled down. In order to re-set the
OTS, proceed as follows:
Switch off appliance and leave for approximately
10 minutes.
Switch appliance
Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If
the OTS operates again, the appliance should be
checked by a competent electrician.
The heater carries a 'Do Not Cover' label to warn the user that
if the appliance is covered, there is a risk of overheating.
Cleaning
Always disconnect the heater from the mains before cleaning.
The heater should not require any maintenance, but it is
strongly advised that it is kept clean. An occasional wipe over
with a soft cloth is all that should be necessary.
Do NOT use metal or furniture polish on any part of the
heater.
Do NOT touch the heater with wet hands or in any way
bring water into contact with it.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid a hazard.
Mounting
This unit is for wall mounting only. It is designed to be very
quiet in operation if mounted correctly. It must be fitted using
the wall bracket supplied which has been specially designed
to minimise noise levels. Care must be taken when handling
the bracket not to bend or distort it.
When fitting more than one heater into a room we would
recommend that they are sited on the same wall to optimise
airflow and ensure quiet operation.

OUNTING ON A
LASTERBOARD
•
Ensure at least one of the wall brackets is secured
to the timber frame of the studded wall by using
standard wood screws.
•
Where the bracket is fitted onto plasterboard only,
ensure plasterboard fixings are used. Standard wall
plugs will not be suitable.
•
Where possible mount the heater(s) on an outside
wall to inhibit transfer of sound within the building.
NB: Failure to follow the instructions and recommendations
provided could result in increased noise levels.
