CARE AND MAINTENANCE CARE OF THE HEATER Due to the ‘natural convection’ operating principle it is normal that some dust and fluff may build up at the air inlet and air outlet louvres over time. This will reduce operating effectiveness and may result in the appliance overheating if left for too long without cleaning. DO NOT use solvents to clean any parts. To remove dust and clean the appliance: 1. Unplug the electric plug of the heater from the socket outlet before commencing cleaning. 2.
INSTALLATION GENERAL This heater is suitable for Do It Yourself installation. It can be either wall mounted (fixed installation) or freestanding by mounting castors in accordance with these instructions. A phillips head screwdriver is required for fixed installation. For wall installation other tools and hardware may be required, depending on the wall material. WALL INSTALLATION The clearance from the sides, front and top of the heater must be at least 100mm as shown in the diagram below.
INSTALLATION 4. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall with the 4 mounting screws. For masonry walls use the plastic plugs with screws provided.
