2. Install Bleed Valve and Blanking Plug:

   Screw the 1/2 inch bleed valve into the top opening of the radiator and the 1/2 inch blanking plug into the bottom opening on the side opposite to where the heating element will be installed. Ensure a tight seal to prevent leaks.

4. Marking and Drilling:

   Using the wall brackets and a spirit level, mark the drilling points on the wall. Drill holes of appropriate size for the wall plugs and insert them. The distance to the wall should be approximately 6.5 cm.

Operating Instructions

The LuxeBath Sahara radiator is equipped with a digital thermostat for easy control.

Thermostat Functions:

• On/Off Button: Press to turn the radiator on or off.
• Temperature/Time Up Button (▲): Increases the set temperature or timer duration.
• Temperature/Time Down Button (▼): Decreases the set temperature or timer duration.
• Mode Change Button: Switches between different operating modes (e.g., standard heating, timer mode).

Operating Modes:

1. Standard Heating Mode:

   In this mode, you can set the desired room temperature between 10°C and 65°C. The radiator will heat until the set temperature is reached and then maintain it. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to adjust the temperature.

2. Timer Mode:

   Activate timer mode using the Mode Change button. In timer mode, you can set a specific operating duration for the radiator. The radiator will operate for the set time and then turn off. Note: Temperature cannot be adjusted in timer mode; it operates at a preset heating level for the duration.

The digital display will show the current settings and operating status.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your radiator.

• Cleaning:

  Before cleaning, always disconnect the radiator from the power supply. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.

• Bleeding the Radiator:

  Periodically check the bleed valve. If you hear gurgling noises or notice uneven heating, the radiator may need to be bled to release trapped air. Turn off the radiator and allow it to cool. Use a suitable tool to open the bleed valve slightly until air escapes, followed by a steady stream of water. Close the valve immediately. Note: This radiator is pre-filled with oil, so bleeding is primarily for initial setup or if air somehow enters the system, which is rare for sealed electric units. However, the bleed valve is provided for completeness.

• Inspections:

  Regularly inspect the power cord and plug for any signs of damage. Check wall mounts for stability. If any damage is found, discontinue use and contact a qualified technician.
