In general, the use of adapters and/or extension leads is not recommended; if their use is unavoidable, they must comply with current safety regulations and their current rating (amps) must be no lower than the maximum current draw of the appliance.
• Take care to ensure that the air inlet and outlet grilles cannot become obstructed, to avoid the risk of fire or overheating of the appliance (inspect regularly); do not cover the appliance, or use it for drying laundry.
• The appliance can be used on the floor by means of the feet provided, or wall-mounted with the aid of the expansion plugs: the wall must have a flat, even surface and must be solid and heat-resistant.

Wall-mounting (see relevant images)

For this type of installation, use the wall mounting bracket and expansion plugs provided (not the feet) and proceed as follows:

• Place the convection heater well away from other heat sources, flammable materials (curtains, upholstery, etc.), flammable gases or explosive materials (spray cans) and materials which may warp in heat. Ensure that gaps of at least 100cm in front of the convection heater, 25cm between the heater and the floor, 100cm between the heater and the ceiling, and 50cm at the sides, are left.

• The power socket must be easily accessible so that the plug can be removed easily in an emergency; the appliance must not be placed under or near windows.

• Make sure that there are no internal pipes or wiring (electricity, water or gas, etc.) in the appliance's mounting points.

• Slightly unscrew 2 fixing screws "D" (4x12mm).

• Mark the 4 mounting holes 280 × 158 ~mm (WxH) apart: before making these holes, it is best to check these measurements on the wall mounting bracket itself.

• Drill the holes in the wall with a bit 0.8mm ; fit the plastic expansion plugs fully into the holes, then fix the mounting bracket with the 4 screws provided "A" (4x35mm).

• Fit the convection heater on the wall mounting bracket and proceed as follows: - Tilt the bottom of the convection heater to about 45^ so that the bottom slots " JL" fit onto the bottom pegs of the mounting bracket "B".

• Lift the heater slightly so that the bottom pegs lock, then push it in so that its top slots fit onto the top pegs of the mounting bracket "C".

• Press the appliance in with a moderate pressure until it click into place, then lock by tightening the screws "D".

• When done, check that the wall mounting bracket and convector heater are securely fixed together.
