Special Note
Sun-Zone uses a metal sheathed wire element and it is
a characteristic of this element that a small amount
of moisture can be absorbed from the atmosphere
during storage or even after installation if not in regu-
lar use. It is possible that the amount of moisture ab-
sorbed could decrease the earth leakage resistance
with spurious operation of the current sensitive earth
leakage circuit breaker recommend for the Sun-Zone
circuit. Should such a condition occur, disconnect the
heater and run for a few minutes in the circuit without
the earth leakage protection, this will drive off any
offending moisture. Return the circuit to its correct
state with the RCCB connected. This must only be
carried out by a competent electrician.
Assembly
Sun-Zone provides a wide beam distribution of radi-
ant heat. Each unit is supplied complete with a fitted
metal sheathed wire element, wire guard and a pair
of mounting brackets.
Installation
The Sun-Zone must not be mounted close to a wall
or celling. The minimum distances are shown below
in figure 1.
Figure 1

OperationSL Receiver Installation
The heater is supplied with the SL wireless receiver pre
wired. The cable length is approximately 0.9m. The
controller should be screwed to the wall with 2x num-
ber 4 or 5 screws and suitable wall plugs. Care should
be taken when installing the receiver. It must not be
positioned above, behind or below the heater. Ideal
position is on the side, minimum 250mm from the
heater. When the heater is suspended from the ceil-
ing, the SL receiver should be installed on the ceiling
as far as possible from the heater to avoid damaging
the electronic components when connecting mains
cable to the receiver. If the cable between the heat-
er and the SL receiver needs replacing or extending,
the same 2.5mm high temperature flexible cable must
be use. SLPB SLTI
