1. Operating instructions for users and contractors

The installation and use of electrical appliances must be carried out with due caution in order to avoid the risk of fire, electric shock or injury. The equipment must only be used as described in these instructions. Any use outside of the manufacturer recommendations could lead to damage, fire, shock or injury.

The heat requirement of the room should be matched to the heat output of the unit.

Before using the appliance the instructions should be read in their entirety and all appropriate handling of the equipment must be observed.

These instructions should be kept safely and passed on to any future owner. In the event of any repair work, hand them to the qualifi ed installer for his attention.

1.1 Unit description

The BHE thermocon towel rail radiator is suitable for use as supplementary heating as well as for drying and warming towels. There are several levels for hanging these.

The appliance is ready for operation after it has been fixed on a wall and connected to the mains by means of the mains plug.

1.2 Operation

The BHE is operated via the control panel on the front.

The heater is be switched on via the ON/OFF button (1). Set the room temperature to between approx. +6^ and +30^ on the room thermostat (3).

The most important points in brief

1 ON/OFF button
2 LED indicator "appliance ON"
3 Room thermostat
4 LED indicator "appliance heating up"
5 LED indicator "rapid heating function"
6 Short-time timer for "rapid heating function"
7 ON/OFF button for "rapid heating function"

After the adjusted ambient temperature has been reached, it will remain constantly, until the appliance is switched off (the heating capacity of the appliance must correspond at least to the necessary heat requirement of the room).

Rapid heating function

With the rapid-heating-function the BHE will run for the preselected period for continuous operation, regardless of the temperature set on the room thermostat.

The heating time can be set at 14 h, 12 h, 1 h or 2 h on the short-time timer (6) and is activated by the rapid-heating button (7).

If the heating time is to be ended before the end of the set period, the rapid heating button must be pressed again.

Frost protection

In the event of a lengthy absence, the room temperature should not fall below approx. +6^ (frost protection) and the room thermostat should be turned to the position and the appliance must remain switched on (observe the heating capacity of the appliance and heat requirement of the room).

Taking the appliance out of operation

In order to take the equipment completely out of operation, switch it off, take the supply plug out and stop water supply (via thermostatic valve).

1.3 Safety instructions

Do not operate the appliance

in rooms which present fire or explosion risks as a result of chemicals, dust, gases or fumes;
- in the immediate vicinity of pipes or containers which carry or contain combustible or potentially explosive substances;
- if the minimum distances from adjoining surfaces of objects are not met.
- The surfaces of the appliance get hot when it is operating (approx. 80^ ). There is a risk of burns!

If it is intended that children or persons with restricted physical, sensory, or mental capacity should operate the appliance, it must be ensured that this is only done after appropriate instruction has been provided by the person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the device.

For objects of all kinds, such as newspapers, furniture, curtains and drapes or other combustible materials, the following minimum distances from the heater must be observed: bottom 200 mm sides and top 150 mm
The surface of the BHE may be hot even when it is switched off.
This appliance is intended only for warming or drying textiles which have been made damp by water (not dry cleaning).
- Do not climb on the appliance (in particular, draw children's attention to this).
No changes at the equipment must be made.
- Never leave the appliance when in use unsupervised.
Special caution is required, if the appliance is used in the presence of children, invalid persons or animals. Danger of injury!
If a part of the appliance is damaged or has fallen down or it was already defect/malfactioning, it may no be taken in to operation.

1.4 Care and maintenance

Clean the appliance regularly when it is cold, using standard care agents. Avoid the use of abrasive and corrosive agents.

As part of regular maintenance, we recommend that you have the control and regulating devices checked as well. Safety, control and regulating devices should be checked by a qualified installer not later than 10 years after first start-up.

What to do if ...?

• the radiator does not get warm?
• if liquid comes out of the heater?
• when the sevice technician has been called?

Check whether . . .

... the ON/OFF button is switched on.
... the appropriate fuse in your fuse box has been connected or the residual current circuit breaker has been switched off.

Remove the cause!

If the heater still does not warm up, call a qualified installer.

Switch the radiator off and then on:

the LED indicator "appliance heating up" flashes 3 times, the measuring probe is damaged.

Call a qualified installer.

the LED indicator "appliance heating up" flashes 5 times, the mains voltage to the appliance is too high.

Switch the heating element off. Call a qualified installer.

Switch off the unit and pull out the supply plug!

Call a qualified installer or service technician!

Inform the service technician about the type of unit (Typ) and it's number (Nr) that is found on the rating plate (20)!

The towel rail radiator is for wall mounting only.

The appliance is ready for installation. The heat-transfer-liquid, a water-glycol-mixture, will be heated up by the heating element.

The electrical connection is by means of mains plug.

With a protection level of IP 24 (splash proof), the radiator can be installed where space is restricted (take note of the information on the protection range in 2.2 below).

2.2 Instructions and regulations

The appliance must not:

• Be operated in areas which are subject to the risk of fire or explosion due to chemicals, dust, gases or vapours;
• Be operated in the immediate vicinity of pipes or containers which carry or contain combustible or potentially explosive substances;
• Be operated, at less as the minimum clearance distances advised.

In workshops or other areas in which the odour of waste gases, oil, petrol, etc. might occur, or in which work is carried out involving solvents and chemicals, there is a risk of sustained odour burdens being engendered, and possibly of dirt contamination occurring.

The appliance should only be installed on a vertical wall resistant to temperatures above 90^
- The installation wall must have sufficient load-bearing capacity (appliance weight, see "Specifications").
- Observe the minimum distances from adjoining surfaces of objects.
The appliance should not be installed immediately below a wall socket.
- All electrical connection and installation work must be carried out in accordance with the VDE regulations (0100), the regulations of the competent water and electricity supply companies as well as the appropriate national and regional regulations.

2.3 Installation

BHE 75

Take the dimensions for drill holes from the illustration of the BHE, depending on the customer's existing water connections, and mark out on a wall with sufficient load-bearing capacity. Observe minimum distances!
Install wall distance pipe (12) with enclosed raw plugs 8mm (19) and screws 5× 40 (13) depending on the construction of the wall.
Push the spacers (11) into the wall distance pipe and screw into position with the adjusting screw M4 x 10 (10) (do not tighten).
Position the radiator with the two upper cross-pipes on the upper spacers and secure in position on the spacers by means of the clamp (12) (M5× 30 screw, 13). Then fix at the bottom in the same way as at the top.
Line up the radiator (push spacers into wall bushes), tighten the adjusting screws in the wall bushes at the top and put caps (14) on the clamps.
Plug in the mains plug (18).

BHE 75 L

Determine the dimensions of drill-holes according to the fixing bolts (19) or determine it from the dimensional drawing of the BHC-L and mark it on a sufficient load-car

rying wall, depending to the existing waterconnection-points. Beware the minimum distances!

install the mount-hook (16) depending to the wall construction with suitable mounting materials, e.g. with enclosed raw plugs 8 ~mm (15) of and screws 5 × 40 (9).
Hang the radiator on the retaining hooks with the fixing bolts (19).
Push caps (17) with "marking ridge upward" onto the fixing wall (appliance is fixed).
Plug in the mains plug (18).
