instances this appliance must be installed by a suitabily
quailified installer and the means for disconnection must
be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the
local wiring rules.
Wall Installation- See Fig. 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5
Do not connect appliance until properly xed to the wall
and the Instruction leaet is fully read. In particular, the
minimum distances must be observed.
For installation of the appliance, care must be taken not
to damage concealed cables.
Please be careful while drilling the holes.
The wall plugs supplied with this product are for use with
Block/Brick built walls only.
This model is designed to be permanently xed to a wall
at a minimum height of 300mm. The wall bracket must be
tted horizontally and the cable routed to the bottom right
of the appliance shown as “a” in Fig. 1.
A height of 600 to 725mm from bottom of the appliance
to oor is recommended for optimum viewing of fuel bed
(see Fig. 2 for recommended xing dimensions).
For optimum viewing mark the top four screw xing positions
on wall in accordance with the recommended fixing
dimensions - see Fig. 2. Drill holes with a 6mm drill bit.
Fix the wall bracket using the plugs and screws provided
- see Fig. 3.
Carefully lift the appliance up ensuring that the top rear
ledge of the appliance engages the wall bracket and is
centrally positioned. - see Fig. 4.
A bottom xing bracket is supplied. Fix this bracket to the
bottom of the appliance using the silver screw on the
underside. With the bracket in place mark the location of
the hole on the wall. Then remove the appliance,drill the
wall, t the wall plug and re-t the appliance ensuring that
you secure it in place by screwing the bracket to the wall.
Recessed Installation- See Fig. 6
Please note that this appliance can also be recessed. This
can be installed in a large replace opening or a purpose
built wall. See Fig. 6 for size of recess required and hole
xing dimensions.
It is essential that this re is securly xed to the wall and it is
important that the xing device chosen is appropriate to
the wall material. Some modern internal building materials
may require specialised xing devices to provide a safe,
secure installation. If in doubt, please consult a qualied
installer.
The wall should be capable of supporting the weight of
the appliance. If the installation of the bracket on the wall
is not sufciently sturdy, the unit may fall and cause injury
or property damage.

Battery Information - See Fig. 8

turn over the remote control, and follow the diagram
embossed on the remote control
3. Only use CR2025 or CR2032 size of batteries.
WARNING: KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Swallowing may lead to serious injury in as little as 2 hours
or death, due to chemical burns and potential perforation
of the oesophagus.
If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed
inside any part of the body seek immediate medical
attention
Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment
is correctly secured, e.g. that the screw or other mechanical
fastener is tightened. Do not use if the compartment is not
secure.
Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely.
Flat batteries can still be dangerous.
CAUTION: No obvious symptoms
Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery
is stuck in a child’s oesophagus (food pipe).
There are no specic symptoms associated with this. The
child might:
- cough, gag or drool a lot;
- appear to have a stomach upset or a virus;
- be sick;
- point to their throat or stomach;
- have a pain in their abdomen, chest or throat;
- be tired or lethargic;
- be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise “not
themselves”;
- lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite; and
- not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food.
These sorts of symptoms vary or uctuate, with the pain
increasing and then subsiding.
A specic symptom to button and coin battery ingestion is
vomiting fresh (bright red) blood. If the child does this seek
immediate medical help.
The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be
vigilant with “at” or spare button or coin batteries in the
home and the products that contain them.
