I NSTALLATION R ECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that careful thought be given to siting the appliance within the room. Try to
avoid being directly in front of the heater for long periods. Consider where you may stand, at a
work surface or the like. Position the heater to deliver the benefit of its warmth but not so as to
overheat yourself.
The heater must not be located immediately below a fixed socket outlet.
I NSTALLATION R EQUIREMENTS
The appliance is designed to fit behind
the plinth board and below the base shelf
of a kitchen-type cupboard ie within the
free plinth space. igure 1 below shows
the MINIMUM size cupboard unit into which
the appliance may be fitted.
The appliance may be installed into a
cupboard with dimensions larger than those
given above.
I NSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Cut a hole in the plinth board, to the dimensions
given in igure 2.
2. The power supply cable must be routed from the
connecting unit into the plinth space. The cable
shall be sufficiently long as to pass through the
plinth space and plinth board. This enables the
appliance to be subsequently withdrawn from
the plinth if maintenance is required. Ensure no
sharp edges are present along the power cable
route.
3. The appliance can now be slid through the plinth
board, until the fascia panel abutts the outside
of the plinth board. Screw the fascia panel to
the plinth board with the screws provided.
4. Connect the unit to the mains power supply in
accordance with the appropriate section of
these instructions.
To remove the appliance from the plinth space, should maintenance be required, disconnect
mains power supply, unscrew fascia panel and slide out the appliance.
These dimensions are for a 600mm wide by 100mm high plinth. If the appliance is to be fitted
into a plinth greater in length than specified then the hole shown in igure 2 must be cut at least
22mm from one end.
If the supply cord on this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord which is
only available from an Authorised Service Agent, or your supplier. If replacement of the supply cord
is found to be necessary, the following should be noted.

OPERATION
The square red switch on the left hand side switches the unit on and connects the mains supply to
the fan motor (giving a cool airflow) and energises the heat control switches.
HEAT CONTROL
When the left switch on the right hand side is depressed it will illuminate and the heat output is
1kW. When the right-hand switch is depressed it will illuminate and the heat output is 2kW. When
both switches are depressed the heat output is 3kW.
The appliance is fitted with an electronic Safety Control (ES). This is a safety device which
switches off the heater if, for any reason, the appliance overheats. The ES Controls can only be
reset after the appliance has cooled down. In order to reset the ES Control proceed as follows:
1. Switch off appliance and leave for approximately 5 minutes.
2. Switch on appliance and ES Control will reset.
3. Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the ES Control operates again, the
appliance should be checked by a competent electrician.
