Installation 1/ Preparing to install the heated towel rail Location of the device - This device was designed to be installed in residential premises. In any other case, please call your distributor. - Installation must comply with the standards currently enforced in the country of use. - Locate the heater within minimum distances from obstacles. Do not install the device :

• In a draft likely to affect its control (under centralised mechanical ventilation, etc…).
• Under a fixed mains outlet.
• Inside zones 0 and 1 in bathrooms. The device has to be installed so that switches and other controls cannot be touched by a person in the bath or shower, except in the UK where IEE Regulations

701.512.2 and 701.512.3 apply. These allow

the use of IP24 rated products and their integral controls in Zone 2 and ouside zones.

2/ Connecting the device - The device must be supplied with 230V, 50Hz. - Mains connection must be ensured using the 3-wire cable factory fitte to the heater , through a connecting box. In damp premises, such as bathrooms and kitchens, install the connecting box at least 25cm from the ground. - If power cable is damaged or too short, to avoid any danger it must be replaced by a qualified electrician using special tools.

Unfasten the carton’s flaps and place it against the wall with the lower flap folded back and resting flat on the floor. Prick out the four drill holes though the packaging (without drilling) and then remove the packaging.

Carefully mark the drilling points with a pencil (draw a cross, 4cm wide).

3/ Fixing the heated towel rail to the wall

Drill the four holes.

Position the four hooks and screw them tight.

Screw the supports onto the tubes without blocking them. Check their position by putting them with the towel-drying radiator into the sheaths. Once you found the right position, lock the screws for each contact. 4/ Fitting and removing the hanger

Fit the base with the screw behind the towel-drying radiator in the wanted position.

Screw the hanger onto the frame and tighten gently.

Fit the toweldrying radiator on the wall in the sheaths. Screw down each of the locking blocks. Put the caps on the end of the supports.

5/ Installing the control unit Location To correctly control the heating, the thermostat must measure an ambient temperature that is the most representative of your house. As the temperature probe is in the transmitter's unit, you must place the unit: - in the bathroom, - fixed on a wall placed on a shelf or a piece of furniture, that can be accessed by someone measuring 1.50m, - away from sources of heat (fireplace, direct sunlight) and draughts (window, door), IMPORTANT: Do not install the thermostat on an outside wall or in an unheated room (e.g. garage, etc.). fixed on the wall about 1.50 m off the ground placed on a piece of furniture 20 cm min. Fixing Raise the cover with a screwdriver. Using the screwdriver, remove the batteries delivered with the device (if fixed to the wall) or remove the battery protection tab (if fixed on stand). Fixed to the wall Fix the thermostat using screws and plugs or onto a wall box (➊, centreto-centre distance = 60 mm). Put the batteries back in place, the right way round. Fixed on a stand Using the stand supplied, you can place the transmitter on a piece of furniture (see Location paragraph).

Low battery Advice 1/ Advice for use - There is no point in setting the heated towel rail to maximum, the bathroom will not heat up any quicker. - For optimum heating, towels should be hung over the warm rails and dressing-gowns on the clothes hooks supplied.

2/ Advice - Children must not climb on the towel rail. - Do not let children lean against the towel rail or play nearby when it is on. In some circumstances its surface can get hot enough to burn, especially since their reflexes are still undeveloped or are slower than an adult’s. If there is a risk, consider installing a protective grille in front of the heated towel rail. - This heated towel rail is not untended for use by people (including children) whose physical, sensorial or mental capacities are reduced, by people who are inexperienced or unaware, unless the person responsible for their safety is supervising them, or has given them instructions in advance on how to use the heated towel rail. - For avoid any danger for very young children, you are advised to install this appliance so that the lowest heating bar is at least 600 mm from the floor. - For safety reasons, it is strictly forbidden to re-fill the appliance. If this is needed, contact the manufacturer’s after-sales department or a qualified professional. - Any repairs to the electrical parts must be done by a qualified professional. - Do not insert objects or paper in the heated towel rail. - The first time the towel rail heats up a slight smell may appear, from the release of the last traces of material used in its manufacture. 3/ Maintenance To maintain the performance of the heated towel rail, it needs dusting about twice a year with a soft cloth or a vacuum cleaner with brush attachment. Turn your heater off by moving the knob to and let it cool down. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

4/ If there are problems PROBLEM

ENCOUNTERED The radiator does not heat up. - Ensure that the mains switches are turned on, and that the load-shedding device (if you have one) has not cut off the power supply to the heated towel rail. - Check the ambient temperature of the room: if it is too high, the heating indicator will not come on and the heated towel rail will not heat up. - Adjust the programmed value (see the chapter on Use) - Turn your heater off then on again, using the knob: - Adjust the programmed value (see the chapter on Use) The radiator does not warm the bathroom en- - If the temperature is turned up to the maximum (30°C), check the following points: ough.

• Check that there is no other heater in the room.
• Ensure that your heated towel rail is only warming the one room (i.e. the door is closed).
• Have someone check the supply voltage of the radiator.
• Check that the power of your heated towel rail is suitable for the size of your room (on average we recommend 100W per cubic metre). The radiator heats all the time. - Check that the control unit is not placed in a draught (door open close by) or that the temperature setting has not been changed. - There may be a hitch in the electrical supply. If this is the problem (a blocked thermostat for instance), switch off the supply to the heated towel rail by removing the fuse or switching off the trip-switch for about 10 minutes, then switch it back on again. - If this happens frequently, hove your power company check the supply.

However, if you judge that your radiator is still too hot, check that the power is suitable for the size of your room (we recommend 100W per cubic metre) and that the heated towel rail is not in a draught which will disturb its setting.
