MOUNTING PROCEDURE
When installed in a bathroom, the Towel rail must be at least 600mm away
from the bath or shower area. The Towel Rail should always be fixed to the
wall at least 600mm above the floor level.
Place the Towel Rail on a flat surface, and
loosely attach the fixings to the towel rail
by sliding them around the rail to the
desired position. Assemble using one
fixing on the top rail, one fixing on the
bottom rail and the third fixing on the side
rail – as shown on the front cover of these
instructions. Check that the 3 fixings are
sitting parallel.
Using your Towel Rail as a template, and
with the fixings ‘finger-tight’, position it on
the wall and mark off the positions for
each of the fixing holes.
Drill and plug the wall suitable for the
supplied plugs/screws.
Tighten each of the fixings to the rail by
inserting a screwdriver through the back of the hollow fixing ensuring
that the fixings remain parallel – see figure 2.
Offer up the rail to the wall and inset each screw until the rail is firmly
attached to the wall.
NOTE: Should you require the cable to be at the other side, offer up
the towel rail to the wall with the hangers suitably reversed.
CLEANING
To clean the Towel Rail, polish with a clean dry cloth when the Towel Rail is
switched off.
If a more thorough clean is required, the use of non-abrasive wax polish
(similar to those used to polish car paintwork) will help to maintain the
chromium finish).
Under no circumstances should any kind of abrasive or spray cleaner be
used to clean the Towel Rail. These may contain chemicals, which can
affect the surface finish and as such may invalidate your warranty.
SAFETY AND ELECTRICAL
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to the highest
international standards, but like all electrical appliances that are
operated by mains voltage, care must be taken if you are to obtain the
best results and safety is to be assured.
THE TOWEL RAIL MUST BE WIRED TO COMPLY WITH THE CURRENT
EDITION OF THE IEE REGULATIONS BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL
ENGINEER. THE REGULATIONS CONTAIN IMPORTANT
REQUIREMENTS REGARDING SAFETY OF ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES IN
BATHROOMS.
IMPORTANT! A 13-AMP PLUG SHOULD NOT BE FITTED TO THE
MAINS LEAD.
The Towel Rail cable should be connected to the electrical supply
through a means for disconnection in all poles in accordance with the
wiring rules. The cable connected to the appliance must be fixed wiring.
If used in a bathroom it should be connected to an unswitched fused
spur outlet. In other rooms a switched unit should be used.
The Towel Rail is designed as a fixed electrical appliance for fixed
wiring and must be earthed.
The cable entry can be either on the left or right hand side, but must be
horizontal and at the bottom.
A 3-amp fuse must be used. As the colours in the wires in the mains
supply cord may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying
the connection terminals, make the electrical connections as:-
• The GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the terminal marked or “E”.
• The BROWN (L) live wire to the terminal marked “L”.
• The BLUE (N) neutral wire to the terminal marked “N”.
DO NOT use the appliance if damaged.
If the supply cord is damaged, it MUST BE replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
DO NOT use the appliance to carry articles that have been cleaned
with dry cleaning fluids.
DO NOT use the appliance to carry articles that have been in contact
with oil or petroleum based products.
DO NOT use the appliance unless it has been fitted to the wall as per
these instructions.
