Fitting a wall mounting bracket to the wall.
(See figure 4).
Supplied with the heater is a wall mounting bracket (See figure 1). If fitting to a
conventional brick wall then use the outer slotted holes in the bracket. If fitting to a
plasterboard wall that has a wooden frame behind it then use all four fixing holes in

5. CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE HEATER
How do I clean my heater?
The heater fascia and glass parts need only to be wiped clean with a dry soft cloth,
do not use polishes or abrasive materials.
I have a problem with my heater!
Important Safety
Before undertaking maintenance always disconnect the heater from the
electricity supply by removing the 3 pin plug and allowing the heater to cool
completely.
1. My heater is on but there is no light or heat.
The first thing to do is check the wall socket. To do this plug in a known working
appliance. If the appliance you have plugged in works then there is a good chance
that the problem lies with the 13 Amp fuse in the heater plug. If either fuse or socket
is suspected, have them checked by an electrician.
2. My heater is on but there is no heat.
A cut out device is fitted to the heater to prevent damage due to over heating. If it
operates due to an obstruction in the airflow, the heater must be turned off and
allowed to cool for 15 minutes and the obstruction removed before restarting.
3. I have a problem that is different to those in the previous examples
1- 3.
