INSTRUCTIONS FOR:

INFRA-RED

SPACE WARMERS

1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

p WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:

You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors for wear

or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB)

should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD

with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual

Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.

You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.

1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business

premises, to be tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT),

at least once a year.

1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the

safe condition of those appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt

about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the

power supply. See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and use a Portable Appliance Tester.

1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all

connections to ensure that none is loose.

1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply

to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.

1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.

1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.

1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty

item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When an ASTA/BS approved UK

3 pin plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.

Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).

a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal E.

b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal L.

c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal N.

d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly

connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the

restraint is tight.

Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live

(brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO

NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.

1.1.10. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD

fitted is preferred since any appliance plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is

important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the reel is

suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we

recommend the use of 2.5mm2section cable.

Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin 110V 32 amp plug to suit supply.

a) Connect the green/yellow earth wire to the earth terminal .

b) Connect the brown live wire to the live terminal L.

c) Connect the blue neutral wire to the neutral terminal, unmarked.

d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly

connected, that the cable outer insulation extends past the cable

restraint and that the restraint is tight.

pWARNING! Reminder, the electrical installation of the heater must only be carried out by a

qualified electrician. Make sure that power supply cable is correctly earthed.

1.2 GENERAL SAFETY

pWARNING! These heaters use Light Technology, whereby quartz infrared elements heat objects by emitting energy at a level similar to the heat of the

sun. Any objects in the line of sight of the elements will start to feel warm, the air in between is not heated. Traditional methods heat the air and rely

on air circulation to transfer heat. As a result, quartz halogen heating can project heat over longer distances.

pWARNING! Disconnect the heater from the mains power supply before carrying out any servicing or maintenance.

3Disconnect the heater from the power supply before handling or cleaning.

3Maintain the heater in good order and clean condition for best and safest performance.

3Maintain the cabinet in good condition. Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will

invalidate the warranty.

3Locate heater in a suitable work area and keep area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials. Ensure there is adequate lighting and keep

the immediate area in front of the outlet grill clean.

3Only use the heater standing in the upright position on a level surface.

7DO NOT touch the quartz lamps, even when cold.

7DO NOT use the heater without the guards fitted.

7DO NOT use the heater without the wheels fitted and locked.

7DO NOT allow the heater to get wet as this may cause an electric shock, causing damage to the heater and possible personal injury.

7DO NOT let power lead hang over an edge (i.e. table), or touch a hot surface, lie in the beam of heat, or run under a carpet.

7DO NOT cover heater when in use, and do not obstruct the air inlet and outlet grilles.

7DO NOT use in bathroom, shower room, or in any wet or damp environments or where there is high condensation.

7DO NOT operate the heater when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.

7DO NOT insert or allow objects to enter any openings of heater as this may cause an electric shock, fire or damage to heater.

7DO NOT use the heater out of doors. These heaters are designed for indoor use only.

7DO NOT use heater if the power cord, plug or the heater is damaged, or if the heater has become wet.

7DO NOT use the heater where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases such as petrol, solvents, aerosols etc, or where heat sensitive materials may be stored.

7DO NOT place the heater near items that may be damaged by heat, allow at least 2mtr clearance in front of the heater.

7DO NOT touch the outlet grille of the heater during and immediately after use as it will be hot.

7DO NOT allow children to touch or to operate the heater.

7DO NOT place heater too close to yourself or any object, allow the air to circulate freely.

7DO NOT use the heater for any purpose other than for which it is designed.

3Allow the unit to cool before storage. When not in use, disconnect from the mains power supply and store in a safe, cool, dry, childproof area.

4. HEATER OPERATION

4.1. Operating the heater.

4.1.1. Place the heater on a level floor in a suitable position in the area you require to heat. Allow a minimum of 2mtr between the heater and adjacent objects.

4.1.2. Plug the heater into the mains supply.

4.1.3. Select the required output by using the two rocker switches (on the side of the IRC153 & IRC153.110V and on the back of the IRS153 & IRS153.110V)

which switch the lamps on and off. Each lamp has an output of 1500W.

4.1.4. To switch the unit off, select 0 on both the rocker switches and unplug from the mains. Allow the unit to cool before handling or storage.

pWARNING! DO NOT touch the top of the heater when in use as it becomes hot.

WARNING! Always allow elements to cool before moving the units. Use only on a smooth even surface. Failure to do so will cause premature wear to

the elements and reduce their working life.

7DO NOT touch the lamp glass, even when cold.

7DO NOT use the heater without the guards fitted.

5.1 Cleaning.

5.1.1. To clean the reflector, remove the guard by unscrewing the retaining screws and wipe the reflector with a clean dry cloth. DO NOT use abrasives or

solvents. The surface of the reflector is very soft and scratches may cause it to overheat. Replace the guard.

5.2. Changing a lamp (110V models).

pWARNING! Lamps should only be changed by a qualified electrician.

5.2.1. Remove the front grille by unscrewing the retaining screws.
