appliance as consequent overheating can cause damage.
Do not connect the appliance until properly fixed to the
wall and the instruction leaflet is read fully.
At installation of the appliance, care must be taken not to
damage any cables that may be concealed in the wall.
Please be careful while drilling the holes.
These models are designed to be permanently wall mounted
- see Fig.1 for recommended fixing dimensions from floor to
underside of the appliance for optimum viewing of the display
screen. The outline of the chassis and the position of the
electrical socket are shown as dotted outlines in Fig.1 ‘b’.
Any dimensions indicated * are recommended dimensions.

The wall plate is secured to the chassis with 2 screws (see
Fig.4 detail ‘X’,’1’). To wall mount the appliance first remove
the wall plate from the chassis by removing the two screws
and rotating the corner hinges away from the chassis.
Note : Retain the two screws for future use.
Fix the wall plate to the wall using the wall plugs and screws
provided. (Note: Ensure that the wall is suitable for the screws
& plugs provided).
Use the wall plate as a template to mark the hole positions
for drilling - see Fig.2. Drill and fix the wall plate in position
with one screw initially to check the plate is level before
marking and drilling the remaining holes.
Ensure the wall plate is fitted the correct way up i.e. the side
hooks are pointed upwards. - see Fig.3.
The appliance can then be hung on the wall plate by aligning
the slots on the chassis with the side hooks on the wall
plate.
Check to ensure that the bottom hooks have also engaged
in their respective slots.
The corner hinges on the wall plate may be used to secure
the appliance against inadvertent dislodgement. Simply
rotate the the hinges upwards to a position above the chassis
(see Fig.2 and Fig.3). They can then be screw fixed using the
screws removed earlier (see Fig.4, detail ‘X’, ‘1’).
NOTE: The appliance should be hard wired to a fused
switched spur located behind the glass panel so as to be
hidden from view (see Fig. 1, ‘b’). The programme compact
flash memory card is factory fitted and protected by a screw
fixed security cover, ( see Fig.4 ‘a’) In normal use access to
the card is not a requirement.
Please consult a qualified electrician for appropriate wiring
requirements.
