Installation Guide

WIRING & TRANSFORMER (*)

• Using the supplied low voltage wire, make provision to connect this wire from the supplied transformer, through the wall surface, to the

location of any of the 4 wall mounting points (legs).

• Note: Do not cut or extend the supplied low voltage wire

• Note: If there is no suitable location for the transformer within 3 meters of the ladder, please contact Avenir for advice

• Note: The transformer must be located in an accessible ventilated area

• Ensure the hole where the wire protrudes the wall surface, is no more than 12mm diameter (optional backplates are available if required).

• The mains supply must be switched - preferably using a timer.

• Note: Do not install any switching device (switch or timer) that controls the low voltage circuit - always switch the 240V supply

TOWEL LADDER

• Using the supplied double sided tape, stick the MDF Drilling Template on the wall by locating the larger hole over the supply wire.

• Using a spirit level, the supplied diamond drill bit and drilling ﬁxture as a guide, drill holes in the wall surface (remove templates after).

• One of the 4 supplied connectors will have electrical contacts (*)

• Use Part A to terminate the low voltage supply wires before ﬁxing to the wall (*)

• Using the mating Part B to terminate the wires protruding from the ladder, then ﬁx this part to the ladder (*)

• NOTE: Connecting wires are available through 2 legs - The wires NOT USED MUST BE INSULATED (*)

• Fit the remaining 3 connectors Part A (without electrical contacts) to the wall (**)

• Fit the remaining 3 connectors Part B (without electrical contacts) to the ladder (**)

• Slide 4 chrome sleeves (Part C) over the parts mounted to the wall (Part A x 4)

• NOTE: The orientation of the sleeves (small slot is away from the wall)

• Fit the ladder to the wall by sliding the connector (Part B x4) into the sleeves (Part C x4)

• Press against the front of the ladder at each wall mounting point - a positive "click" will be heard

• Insert the supplied locking small counter-sunk screws (x4) into each leg as shown

• Test - heating takes 30 minutes to reach full temperature (with towel draped over rail)

WARNING:

In order to avoid hazards for young children, this appliance should be installed so that the lowest rail is at least 600mm above the ﬂoor.

This appliance MUST be installed by a licenced electrician.

Installing an AVENIR low voltage Heated Towel Ladder is done in 2 separate stages. Provision must be made for a low

voltage supply wire from the supplied transformer location, through the wall surface. This can be located at any one of

the 4 mounting points of the ladder. Plug in option is not available for low voltage ladders. (*)
