1. CARDRONA & MONACO S2 ASSY AND DIS-ASSEMBLY
1.1 REMOVING THE GLASS
Do this only while the heater is standing upright.
1. Remove the louvre assembly by lifting it up about 5mm and pulling it carefully toward you.
2. Remove the dress guard if fitted. For the Cardrona, first remove the front panel (below the glass).
Do this by removing the two retaining plates underneath the front panel, and then lifting its rear
corners off their support posts. Once the panel is clear, swing the bottom of the guard out from the
heater and lift the guard off the two top retaining posts. For the Monaco, un-clip the guard from the
glass retainers.
3. Cardrona. Before lifting the top trim clear, provide support for the three glass pieces to prevent
them from falling and breaking. Adhesive tape will do this.
4. Remove the two top glass trim fastening screws (positioned horizontally, one at each end of the
trim), slide the trim forward and lift it clear.
5. Lift the front glass clear first, followed by each side glass. As each side glass is removed, a spring, a
backing strip and a glass rope will be released from behind its rear vertical edge.
6. Monaco. Remove two fastening screws securing the top glass trim.
7. Prise forward the top glass trim and lift it clear. Note. This will release the top edges of the left and
right glass retainers.
8. Lift the glass retainers to remove them, keeping a hand on the glass to ensure that it does not fall
forward.
9. Lift the glass clear.
1.2 FITTING THE GLASS , THE LOUVRE ASSEMBLY, THE DRESS
GUARD AND THE FRONT PANEL.
1.2.1 GLASS ASSEMBLY
1. Cardrona. Clean all inside glass surfaces carefully and keep fingerprints off them as they are
assembled.
2. Assemble both side glasses. Fit the spring, the backing strip and the glass rope (in that order) into
each retaining slot and then each glass, MAKING SURE THAT THE SMOOTH EDGES
WILL BE AGAINST THE FRONT GLASS. Push them back against their springs until the front
edges drop into the front slot.
3. The front glass can then be fitted, TAKING CARE THAT THE BEVELLED EDGES FACE
THE FRONT (i.e. away from the side glasses). Offer the front glass into position with its lower
edge just above the top of the bottom retaining channel.
Press the front glass back against the side glasses, compressing the springs until it the glass is
directly above the channel. Maintaining the backward pressure, slide the front glass down into the
channel.
