General instructions
Read these instructions carefully before
installation and use. Keep this manual for
future reference. During installation and
maintenance and when replacing the lamp
the heater should always be disconnected
from the power supply.
The element of ELIR is a halogen quartz
lamp that is operating at about 2200 ºC. The
expected lifetime of the lamp is depending
on the ambient temperature and where the
heater is installed. When it is mounted airy
and outdoor the lamp will live longer.
The guarantee is only valid if the heater is
installed and used in a way that is described
in this instruction.
Application area
This infrared heater is tested and approved
according to the EMC- and LVD regulations
and is CE compliant. Thanks to the high
protection class IP65 it is suitable for
installation outdoors.
Normally ELIR is used to give comfort for
people in the area in front of or under the
heater, but it can also be used for drying. The
wet surface will be heated by the radiation
and the evaporation goes faster.
In winter ELIR also can be used for
defrosting purposes.
Mounting
After unpacking make sure that the appliance
is complete and shows no signs of visible
damage.
Make sure that the voltage is the same as
indicated on the rating label.
ELIR must be mounted at least 1,8 m above
the floor.
When the heater is mounted at 2 – 3 m
height on a wall the heat radiation covers
approximately an area of 2,5 x 4 m. The best
comfort is experienced when a person is
heated from two directions.
Enclosed in the package there is a wall
bracket. Make sure that the wall is firm and
that proper screws are used.
Fig. 2-4 show other mounting alternatives.
The parts needed for such installations are to
be purchased separately.
Following important notes must be followed:
- The heater should always be installed
horizontally and only by using the brackets
provided.
- The heater must not be located directly
below a wall socket.
- The minimum distances according to page
2 must be kept.
- Do not use the heater directly near a
bathtub, a shower or a swimming pool.
- The heater must not be installed in areas
where hazardous vapours may be present.
Electrical installation
The electrical installation should be
carried out by a qualified electrician and in
conformity with prevailing regulations. When
fixed an all-pole switch with at least 3 mm
breaking gap should precede the appliance.
If a cable connects the heater it should be of
type H05 RN-F 3 x 1 or similar.
N.B: The cable glands must be classified as
the heater.
Start up (E)
When the unit is used for the first time or
after a long period of disuse, smoke or odour
may result from dust or dirt that has collected
on the element. This is completely normal
and disappears after a short time.
Operation
- All users should be made aware of all
aspects of operation and safety mentioned
in this instruction.
- The appliance is only to be used according
to these instructions.
- Children or incompetent persons must not
use this appliance.
- Do not touch the heater with wet hands or
with bare feet.
Mounting and operating instructions

GB
- Avoid improper use of extension cords.
- Ensure that the heater is aiming its
warmth into the target area. After you have
loosened the screws locking the heater to
the bracket adjust the angle as shown on
page 3.
- If the appliance is not used for a long
period, disconnect it from the power
supply.
Maintenance
When the unit is used for the first time or
after a long period of disuse, smoke or odour
may result from dust or dirt that has collected
on the element. This is completely normal
and disappears after a short time.
During maintenance the heater must be
disconnected from the power supply.
The heater contains no moving parts
and therefore very little maintenance is
required other than to ensure that there is no
excessive build-up of dust/dirt on the reflector
or lamp as this can cause overheating and
premature lamp failure.
To clean the appliance, wipe off with a damp
cloth.
Replacement of lamp
A qualified person shall replace the lamp and
the gaskets.
The lamp is robust and if knocks and shock
vibrations are avoided it will run for a long
time. The expected lifetime of the lamp is
depending on the ambient temperature and
where the heater is installed. When it is
mounted airy the lamp will live longer.
When the lamp is to be replaced the red
silicon gaskets also must be changed. The
gaskets must also be replaced before if there
are signs of aging.
Residual current circuit breaker (E)
When the installation is protected by means
of a residual current circuit breaker, which
trips when the appliance is connected,
this may be due to moisture in the heating
element. When an appliance containing a
heater element has not been used for a long
period or stored in a damp environment,
moisture can enter the element.
This should not be seen as a fault, but is
simply rectified by connecting the appliance
to the mains supply via a socket without a
safety cut-out, so that the moisture can be
eliminated from the element. The drying
time can vary from a few hours to a few days.
As a preventive measure, the unit should
occasionally be run for a short time when it is
not being used for extended periods of time.
Safety
• For all installations of electrically heated
products should a residual current circuit
breaker 300 mA for fire protection be used.
• During operation the surfaces of the unit
are hot!
• The unit must not be fully or partially
covered with inflammable materials, as
overheating can result in a fire risk!
• This appliance can be used by children
aged from 8 years and above and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not
be made by children without supervision.
• The heater is equipped with a protective
grille to prevent contact or to prevent
large objects from touching the hot lamp.
The unit must not be used without this
protective grille.
• Ensure that there are no inflammable
materials gathered on or close to the
heater.
• The free space to the inflammable material
in the direction of radiation must be at
least 1 meter.
