3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This heater is designed to be mounted on the wall (screws not included). These units are suitable for heating enclosed indoor rooms such as bedrooms, studies, offices, living areas and bathrooms.

3.1 Installation Location

This heater was designed to be installed in a residence.

Ensure the safety zones (dimensions in mm) in the diagram are kept free. [Diagram description: Shows a wall with the heater mounted, indicating minimum clearance distances of 150mm above, 500mm in front, and 150mm to the sides. A vertical dimension of ≥120/150mm is also indicated for the bottom clearance.]

If the wall covering is laid on foam, a spacer the same thickness as the foam must be placed under the panel heater's support. This ensures there is free space behind the panel heater to make sure its control settings are not adversely affected.

The heater must not be installed immediately below a wall socket. The heater must be connected to a socket outlet or permanent terminal box at least 10cm to one side of the heater.

3.2 Mounting the Heater on a Wall

(Mounting bracket included; screws not included)

The wall mounting bracket is oriented centrally (See diagram). [Diagram description: Shows the wall mounting bracket.]

1. Loosen the locking plate screw and rotate the locking plate out of the fixing slot. [Image description: Close-up of the locking plate mechanism.] Then remove the mounting bracket from the heater.
2. Use the wall-mounting bracket as a template for marking the fixing holes. Position the mounting bracket in the correct position on the wall and mark the screw-holes through the 4 mounting holes. [Diagram description: Shows the bracket being used to mark holes on a wall.]
3. Install the 4 fixing devices in the wall, ensuring they are more than adequate to safely fix the heater to the wall.
4. Fix the bracket firmly to the wall using all 4 mounting locations. [Diagram description: Shows the bracket securely attached to the wall.]
5. Mount the heater on the bracket so the bracket protrusions fix into the 4 slots on the back of the heater. Rotate the locking plate into the fixing slot and tighten the screw. [Diagram description: Shows the heater being attached to the wall bracket and secured.]

To remove the heater, reverse the above operation.

Time Programming a Full 24 hour Day

Note: Around the digital clock display, the black rectangles indicate "ON" times / zones, and the clear spaces are "OFF" zones.

The Up button (5) ⬆️ is used for setting the "ON" zone, and the Down button (4) ⬇️ is used for setting the "OFF" zone. The timer will start at 00:00, and each push of the Up ⬆️ or Down ⬇️ button will:

1. advance the clock by one hour, and
2. set the desired "ON" or "OFF" timer for that hour.

You must program the full 24 hour ON / OFF period (until the time reaches 00:00) for the timer to function correctly.

Finally, press the Program button (8) to complete the setting for the day.

For example, if you would like to make the unit work from 1:00 to 4:00, 11:00-13:00, and 17:00 to 23:00:

1. Press the Timer button (7). The time will change from 00:00 to 1:00, and the zone between 24:00 to 1:00 will be clear (OFF).
2. Press the Timer button (7) three times until the time advances to 4:00, and the zone between 1:00 and 4:00 will be black (ON).
3. Press the Timer button (7) seven times until the time advances to 11:00, and the zone between 4:00 to 11:00 will be clear (OFF).
4. Press the Timer button (7) twice until the time advances to 13:00, and the zone between 11:00 to 13:00 will be black (ON).
5. Press the Timer button (7) four times until the time advances to 17:00, and the zone between 13:00 to 17:00 will be clear (OFF).
6. Press the Timer button (7) six times until the time advances to 23:00, and the zone between 17:00 to 23:00 will be black (ON).
7. Press the Timer button (7) once, the time advances to 00:00, and the zone between 23:00 to 24:00 will be clear (OFF).
8. Press the Program button (8) to complete the setting for the day. The control panel will now show the current day. The program is now active and is running on 'real time'.

Note: You must program the full 24 hour ON / OFF period (until the time reaches 00:00) for the timer to function correctly. If you go past the 00:00 (and move to 01:00) you will need to program the 24 hour program for that day again.

Copy the 24-hour program

If you would like the same 24-hour program to work for another day or days in the week, the program can be copied onto the selected day.

For example, you have just created a 24 hour program for Monday, and you wish to copy this Monday program to Tuesday:

1. Press the Program button (8) and then press the Timer button (7) to move the "[ ]" to M (Monday).
2. Press the Copy button (3). The symbol "COPY" will appear on the LCD screen. The "[ ]" around the M will flash. (If you would like to cancel the COPY order, please press the Copy button (3) again, the symbol "COPY" will disappear accordingly.)
3. Press the Timer button (7) to move the "[ ]" around T (Tuesday). The "[ ]" around the M will flash, and the "[ ]" around the T will not flash.
4. Press the Copy button (3) to complete the operation. The "COPY" and [M] symbol will disappear.

To copy this same Monday program to another day, repeat from Step 3.

Press the Program button (8) to terminate the "COPY" function. The control panel will now show the correct day. The program is now active and is running on 'real time'.

4.2.6 Adjust the Temperature of a Running Program

The temperature sensed by the thermostat sensor is relative to the position of the heater in the room. If the actual temperature is higher than the setting, compensate for this by adjusting the temperature setting.

For example, if the desired temperature is set at 21°C but the actual room temperature is 18°C, compensate for this by increasing the setting to 24°C. Similarly, reduce the temperature setting if the actual room temperature is higher than the setting.

Press the Temperature button (6). The temperature symbol will flash.

Use the Up button (5) ⬆️ or Down button (4) ⬇️ button to adjust the comfort temperature.

Finally, press the Temperature button (6) again. The control panel will now show the current day. The program is now active and is running on 'real time'.

4.2.7 Changing time for Daylight Savings

Press the Timer button (7) twice to make the hour display flash.

In Summer time, press the Up button (5) ⬆️ to advance the timer clock one hour.

In winter time, press the Down button (4) ⬇️ to set the timer clock back one hour.

Terminate the operation by again pressing the Timer button (7) twice so that the current program is displayed on the panel.

4.2.8 Program Back-Up

In the event of a mains power failure or long period when the heater has been turned off, the timer and SS program must be reset by the user. All other pre-set programs and default temperatures will be saved.

4.2.9 Locking the Control Panel

Press the Program button (8) and the Timer button (7) at the same time for around three (3) seconds. A padlock symbol ? is displayed on the screen, indicating that all buttons are now locked.

To unlock the control panel, Press the Program button (8) and the Timer button (7) at the same time for around three (3) seconds, and the padlock symbol will disappear.

4.3 Safety Notes

The air outlet must not be obstructed. For safety reasons the upper and lower air grilles must never be covered with items such as washing nor obstructed by items in close proximity (see figure to right). Objects should not be leant against the unit nor placed between the unit and the wall.

Never leave combustible materials, such as wood, paper, textiles or flammable items such as wax, petrol, aerosol cans etc. in the vicinity of the warm air outlet. As with all similar heaters, the flow of rising air may cause discoloration of the wall.

4.4 Maintenance

Before cleaning the heater, turn it off, unplug from the mains and wait for it to cool down. Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleansers to clean the heater. Use a vacuum cleaner regularly to clean the upper and lower air grilles. Do not immerse any part of the heater in liquid. For more stubborn stains, wipe the outside surfaces of the heater with a lightly dampened cloth. Dry thoroughly with a dry cloth before plugging heater back into mains.
