This appliance is designed to be wall mounted using the mounting bracket and fixings provided. The wall should be relatively flat and not inter-
fere with any of the ventilation slots in the rear panel.
The wall must be structurally sound and of a material capable of withstanding moderate heat. Finished plaster, conventional wallpaper, dry-lined
plaster board are examples of suitable materials. Materials such as flock, blown vinyl, embossed paper and cloth wall coverings which are sensi-
tive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided, as some discolouration may occur.
It should be noted that the appliance creates warm convected air currents. These currents move heat from the room surroundings to, and up
the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
Installing the heater next to these types of wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air, (such as tobacco smoke) exist,
may slightly discolour wall finishing.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined or timber framed construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to carry the weight of
the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances that any vapour barrier and/or structural members of the house frame
are not damaged.
If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to carry the weight and/or which type of wall fixing to use, you should take professional advice and
obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more suitable wall location.
D N T -mount on a ceiling or floor.
-recess any part of the appliance into the wall.
-site any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc,
on the wall above the appliance, unless a suitable heat deflector has been fitted.
- site in a position where curtains or drapes could cover the appliance.
-site in a position where other soft materials could cover e.g. below a coat rack.
-site behind an opening door where mechanical impact/damage could occur.
-site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard.
-sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance.
-obstruct, cover or force items into the openings.
-use the heater to dry clothes.
- site/use in an outdoor location(s).
-run the supply cable under carpets.
It is important that the following clearances are maintained from the appliance to combustible
materials. These clearances are dependant on the mounting location as defined below:
The minimum distance from the top of the appliance to a ceiling is 1000mm.
The minimum distance from the bottom of the appliance to the floor is 100mm.
The minimum distance to the sides of the appliance is 100mm.
The minimum distance to the front of the applaince is 500mm.
CAUTI N: D N T C NNECT THE APPLIANCE T THE
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS TIME.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and damages that may occur due to improper installation or handling. The
appliance should not be installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been completed. Do not block the ven-
tilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped sur-
faces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.
