The heater must be posioned with respect to the
minimum clearances shown in Fig. A and all cauons,
notes & warnings on pages 3 and 4 adhered to.
1. Idenfy where you wish to posion the heater and
whether it will be in a portrait or landscape orien-
taon then place the paper template on the wall
for the hole posions or see diagram over page.
2. Select the dimensions for the heater model you
are installing and using a pen, press through the
hole centres on the template to mark the wall.
Note, there is a 15mm drop from engagement
holes on the brackets to the top hanging edges so
allow for this.
3. Drill the mounng holes, insert wall anchors and
t the screws (not provided) and leave protruding
approx. 5mm for the heater to hang on. Note. the
slots on the back of the heater are 6mm wide so
select screws which have a head larger than 6mm
to ensure the heater remains capve and doesn’t
fall o the wall.
4. Locate the slots on the back of the panel heater
and hang in on all four screws with the cable exit-
ing the heater downwards.

The heater should only be operated through an
electronic thermostat/control device that meets the
Ecodesign direcve requirements. Please contact Space-
Ray for further details.
Fig. M illustrates how a heang panel should be wired. A
double pole switch/isolator must always be ed along
with a me and temperature control.
Where mulple heat panels are being used, each addi-
onal Panel is wired as shown in Fig. N. Care must be
taken to ensure that the total load of all heaters connect-
ed do not exceed the capability of the me and tempera-
ture controller as well as the double pole switch/isolator.

The heater is ed with a thermal cut-o switch which
will cut o the heater output if it exceeds its output limit
and switch it back on when it’s cooled to a sucient
level.
6. Maintenance
The Panel range of heaters contain no serviceable parts.
6.1 Cleaning
Before cleaning the heater disconnect/switch o from the
mains power supply and ensure the appliance is cool.
The heater should be wiped with a so damp cloth and
dried. Do not use abrasive cleaning products or polishes
as these can damage the nish of the heater.
