competent electrician should therefore install it.
The appliance must be fitted horizontally with the cable or
conduit entry at bottom right. It should be mounted such that the
underside is at least 350mm above the floor and the top of the
heater is 150mm below any overhanging shelf or obstruction.
WARNING – DO NOT USE THIS HEATER IN THE

The heater carries a warning 'Do Not Cover' to alert
the user to the risk of overheating that exists if the
heater is accidentally covered.
To comply with the I.E.E. Wiring Regulations, the appliance
must be earthed; the supply circuit must be adequate for the
input of the appliance, and the circuit protected by a suitable
13A fuse. A suitable termination to the fixed wiring of the

pole switch with a contact separation of at least 3mm in all
poles.

at the front of the heater or the heat outlet slots in the
base of the heater.

connections can be made, either to an adjacent double-pole
switch having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles
or to a plug-top for use in a standard 13A socket.

inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this
appliance must not be supplied through an external
switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a
circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the
utility.Do not use where excessive dust or moisture is
present.
If the latter: Connect Green and Yellow wire to plug terminal
marked E or
