WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
If the socket outlets in your home are not of the 13 amp BS1363 type
they will not accept the plug connected to this heater,
therefore cut off the plug. When cut off this plug can constitute a shock
hazard if inserted into a socket outlet. It must therefore be disposed of
safely.
Before wiring the appropriate plug please note that the wires in this
mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
GREEN/YELLOW - EARTH

Positioning the Heater
Select the position for the heater ensuring there is clearance from any
furniture and fittings of at least 150mm above the heater, 230mm below
(wall mounted) and 75mm each side - see Fig. 1. Curtains must not be
closer than 150mm from the top of the heater. If used in a free-standing
position the heater should be on a flat stable surface.

4. Replace the screws but do not over tighten.

Follow the sequence outlined below when installing the heater.
1. Select the position for the heater ensuring there is
clearance from any furniture and fittings of at least 150mm above
the heater, 230mm below and 75mm each side.
Curtains must not be closer than 150mm from the top of the
heater.
2. Fig. 3 shows the required drill hole positions. Using a straight
edge draw a horizontal line for the top brackets at the required
mounting height from the floor. On this line mark off the fixing
centres at 497mm.
3. Fix the two top retaining brackets to the wall, using
suitable fixings. Ensure that suitable fixings are placed in both
of the fixing holes provided in each bracket.
4. Locate the heater on the top brackets and allow it to hang in
place.
5. Fit the bottom bracket into the slot in the heater and then let it
rest against the wall. Mark the hole positions.
6. Remove the heater and drill and plug the holes for the bottom
bracket.
7. Re-hang the heater with the bottom bracket fitted to the heater
and screw fix the bracket to the wall.
Test that the heater is now securely fixed to the wall.

Thermostat
Controls
Thermostat
The Thermostat controls the heat output according to the room
temperature. This ensures that the heater will not produce heat
unnecessarily when the room is warm. To set the temperature you
require, turn the thermostat knob clockwise until the required setting is
reached. Alternatively to heat a cold room quickly, turn the thermostat
knob up fully. When the room has reached the desired temperature,
turn the thermostat knob anti-clockwise until the thermostat just clicks
off. The heater will now automatically operate at this temperature. The
thermostat also has a frost protection setting marked ‘ ‘. This setting
is useful in areas such as garages, to prevent frost damage. If the
thermostat is set to its minimum setting ‘ ’, the heater will cycle on
and off to maintain a temperature of approximately 5° to help protect
against frost.
Heat Selector Switches
Top Switch - The top switch controls the back panel element. When
this switch is illuminated this indicates that the 450W oil panel element
is on.
Bottom Switch - The lower switch is used to control the front panel
element. When the lower switch is illuminated this
indicates that the 550W front panel element is on.
Timer (CVP1T model only)
Note: At least one switch must be in the ‘On’ position for the heater to
operate. - see ‘Digital Timer Operation’.

Note - Timer Memory Back Up Batteries - Once the heater has been
left plugged in with the socket switched on for at least 12 hours the
timer’s memory back up batteries will be fully charged.
Once the timer batteries are fully charged, if there is a power cut or if
the heater is disconnected from the mains for less than 100 hours, then
the timer will continue to keep time & the settings in the memory will
remain intact.
If however the timer back up batteries have not been charged fully, or if
the heater is deprived of power for longer than 100 hours, then the time
and the programme settings are likely to be lost and you may therefore
need to reset the time and the programme before using the Auto mode
again.
Discard leaky batteries
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner according to Provincial and
local regulations. Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different
battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all the batteries are not replaced at
the same time, if disposed of in a fire or if an attempt is made to charge
a battery not intended to be recharged.
Safety Overheat Protection
The heater is fitted with a thermal safety cut-out which will switch off the
heater should it overheat for any reason. If the cut-out
operates it is the result of abnormal overheating, and the Customer
Services Helpline should be contacted for further advice.
