• On the upper line, drill holes 208 mm (8 ^1/4 ") from the centre line, using a 6mm (1/4") masonry bit, and insert a wall plug.
• On the lower line, drill holes 254 mm (10") from the centre line using a 6mm (1/4") masonry bit, and insert a wall-plug.
• Fix the two hook-brackets to the upper holes using the 30 mm (1 ^1/4 ") screws.

PAT TESTING

When used in an office environment, this product must be safety-tested yearly by a qualified electrician (PAT Tested) in order to comply with the Electricity at Work Regulations.

It is good practice that appliances are regularly PAT tested when used in a domestic environment.

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Domestic wiring must be tested periodically by a qualified electrician at least once every 10 years or at every change of occupancy. For office and retail premises, and buildings such as village halls, the wiring must be inspected at least once every 5 years.

It is recommended that all building be fitted with smoke alarms (it is mandatory for new buildings).

OPERATION

Plug the mains lead into a 13 Amp mains socket.

If connecting via an extension lead, make sure that the lead is rated at 10 Amps or more, and that it is fully unwound.

Switch the unit on at the mains socket.

Use the two switches on the side to select the required operation:

• 750 W switch on = Low Heat (750 W)
• 1250W switch on = Medium heat (1250 W)
• Both switches on = High Heat (2000 W)

Do not touch the air output grille when the heater is in operation, because it will be hot and may cause burns.

Unplug the heater from the mains when not in use.

USING THE THERMOSTAT

The thermostat can be use to regulate the room temperature.

Turn both switches on (high heat), and rotate the temperature control fully clockwise.

The heater will then operate at maximum output. When the desired temperature is reached, rotate the temperature control anticlockwise until a click is heard. The heater will then switch on and off to keep the room at the desired temperature. The indicator lights in the switches will show that this is happening.

Any of the heat settings may be used.

If the temperature control is rotated fully anticlockwise to the snowflake symbol, it will operate as a "frost-stat" and switch the heater on if the temperature drops below 4^ C, preventing damage by frost.

MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning, turn the heater off, and disconnect from the mains supply. The heater may then be cleaned using a damp cloth with a drop of washing-up liquid to remove any dust or dirt from the case. Do no use stronger detergents or solvents as these may damage the paint finish.

Using a dry 1" (25mm) paint-brush, remove any dust from the grilles.

If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or and authorised service centre. If the mains plug needs to be replaced, proceed as follows:

Green and Yellow (Earth) E L FUSE FUSE (13 amp) N Blue (Neutral) Brown (Live)

- Connect the brown wire to the terminal labelled "L".

- Connect the blue wire to the terminal labelled "N".

- Connect the green/yellow wire to the terminal labelled with the earth symbol or "E".

- Make sure that the cord-grip is positioned correctly (over the outer sheath of the cable) and it fully tightened.

OPERATING COSTS

At time of going to press, the average cost of electricity is £0.12 per unit (kilowatt-hour). The amount you are being charged will be shown on your electricity bill.

At this cost, the EH1434 will cost 10p per hour to run on the "low heat" setting, 15p per hour to run on the "medium heat" setting, and 23p per hour to run on the "high heat" setting with the thermostat set to its maximum.

If the thermostat is used to regulate the temperature the operating costs will be lower, depending on the room temperature.

FAULT-FINDING

The appliance has an overheat protection switch, which disconnects the power if the element gets too hot. The usual reason for this is because the air-flow has been obstructed, or the grilles have been blocked. If the heater ceases to operate, leave it for 20 minutes to cool down, then check that the grilles are not being obstructed.

Switch back on, and check that the unit is operating normally. If not, contact an authorised service agent for repair.

DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING

You must not dispose of this appliance with domestic household waste.

Most local authorities have specific collection system for appliances and disposal is free of charge to the end-user.

When replacing an existing appliance with a similar new appliance your retailer may take the old appliance for disposal.
