INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that careful thought be given to siting the appliance within the room.
Try to avoid being directly in front of the heater for long periods. Consider where you may
stand, at a work surface or the like. Position the heater to deliver the benefit of its warmth
but not so as to overheat yourself.
The heater must not be located immediately below a fixed socket outlet.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The appliance is designed to fit behind the
plinth board and below the base shelf of a
kitchen-type cupboard ie within the free plinth
space. Figure 1 below shows the MINIMUM size
cupboard unit into which the appliance may be
fitted.
The appliance may be installed into a
cupboard with dimensions larger than those
given above.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Cut a hole in the plinth board, to the
dimensions given in Figure 2.
2. The power supply cable must be routed from
the connecting unit into the plinth space. The
cable shall be sufficiently long as to pass
through the plinth space and plinth board.
This enables the appliance to be subsequently
withdrawn from the plinth if maintenance is
required. Ensure no sharp edges are present
along the power cable route.
3. The appliance can now be slid through the
plinth board, until the fascia panel abuts the
outside of the plinth board. Screw the
fascia panel to the plinth board with the
screws provided.
4. Connect the unit to the mains power supply
in accordance with the appropriate section
of these instructions.
To remove the appliance from the plinth space, should maintenance be required,
disconnect mains power supply, unscrew fascia panel and slide out the appliance.
These dimensions are for a 500mm (PHRX2) and 600mm (PHRX3) wide by 100mm (min)
high plinth. If the appliance is to be fitted into a plinth greater in length than specified then
the hole shown in Figure 2 must be cut at least 22mm from one end.
AIRFLOW
OPERATION
This heater can only be used when connected to a CRX2 wireless programmable timer.
Each CRX2 can control any number of heaters. The heater has an indicator light positioned on
the fascia. The light may be:
Green -when no heat is needed
Yellow -when some heat is needed to maintain the room temperature
Red -when the heater is on full power
Fast Flashing Red - when the heater has overheated and the Electronic Safety Control
has switched the heater off.
Please refer to the CRX2 user and operating instructions for full operational details.
ELECTRONIC SAFETY CONTROL
The appliance is fitted with an electronic Safety Control (ES). This is a safety device which
switches off the heater if, for any reason, the appliance overheats. Overheating is indicated
by a fast flashing red light. The ES Controls can only be reset after the appliance has cooled
down. In order to reset the ES Control proceed as follows:
1. Switch off appliance and leave for approximately 5 minutes.
2. Switch on appliance and the ES Control will reset.
3. Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the ES Control operates again,
the appliance should be checked by a competent electrician.
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-core mains supply cable and should be permanently
connected to the electricity supply via a double pole switch having 3 mm gap on each pole.
A switched Fused Connection unit to BS.1363 Part 4 is a recommended mains supply
connection accessory to ensure compliance with safety requirements applicable to fixed wiring
installation.
