IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1.All electrical work must be done in accordance with local or nationalelectricalcodeasapplicable.For safety, this product must be grounded. If you are unfamiliar with methods of installing electrical wiring, secure the services of a qualified electrician.
2.When wiring, servicing or cleaning this unit, turn off power and lock out service panel. Failure to do so could allow others or thermostat to turn on power unexpectedly which may cause fatal electrical shock.
3.To avoid electrical shock:
•Do not install unit in a tub or shower enclosure or any location where it may come in contact with water.
•Never place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
4.Do not install this unit in an area where chemicals and other flammables are stored or used. Explosion and fire may result.
CAUTION
1.This product may ONLY be installed in a wall. Do not mount in any other position.
2.Install heater at least 12" from floor or any adjacent vertical surface.
3.Do not locate heater behind a door, furniture, drapes, etc., where the air flow to the unit would be restricted.
4.Provide heater with an appropriately-rated electrical circuit to prevent tripped breakers or blown fuses.
5.Do not connect heater to dimmer switch or speed control.
6.To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc., off power unit.
7.Please read specification label on product for further information and requirement.

PLAN THE INSTALLATION
This heater is intended to be used to supply supplemental heat from a wall location in new or existing construction.
Choose a location where edge of heater will be at least 12" from the floor or any adjacent vertical surface.
The heater can be operated using its built-in thermostat or a remote thermostat (Choose either the Model 86W Line-Voltage thermostat or use the Model 82 Transfomer/Relay with an appropriate low-voltage thermostat.). The Model 85 Kit is available for surfacemount applications. Purchase these accessories separately.
Plan to supply the heater with proper line voltage and appropriate power cable.
NOTE: Power can be tapped from a nearby circuit depending on the heater wattage required and the amperage rating of the circuit.
Heater can be converted to half-wattage to avoid overloading such circuits.

INSTALL THE HEATER
Refer to FIGURE 2
1.Remove heater assembly from housing. Take out the four (4) screws shown and set heater assembly aside.
Refer to FIGURE 3
2. Attach housing to wall studs.
NOTE: Locate housing at least 12" from floor on any adjacent walls.
Use the measuring guides on the sides of housing to position housing so that it will be flush with finished wall. Nail the housing to studs through the hole and slot on both sides of housing.
NOTE: In24"-on-centerstudconstruction,framinginbetweenstuds isnecessary.
WIRE THE HEATER
Refer to FIGURE 4
1.Connect power cable to housing. Attach electrical power cable to housing using appropriate connector. Allow 6" of wire inside housing. Secure ground wire to housing with grounding clip, as shown.
Refer to FIGURE 5 and FIGURE 6
2.Wire the heater assembly. Connect wires from heater assembly to power cable wires. Follow wiring diagram.
If heater is wired direct, use the built-in thermostat for temperature control.
OPTIONAL WIRING CONVERSIONS
When using a separate wall control, simply turn the heater's builtin thermostat to its highest setting. There is no need to disconnect the built-in thermostat:
a)Turn built-in thermostat to highest setting.
b)Remove knob.
c)Fasten security cover to grille.
LINE-VOLTAGE THERMOSTAT Refer to FIGURE 7
If wall-mounted control is desired, use the Model 86W Line-Volt- age Thermostat. Purchase thermostat separately.
Cut blue wire. Strip ” of insulation from each end. Connect wires from wall control to each stripped wire.
LOW-VOLTAGE THERMOSTAT
If wall-mounted control is desired, use a Model 82 Transfomer/ Relay with an appropriate low-voltage thermostat (purchase separately). Follow the mounting and wiring instructions packed with the controls.
HALF-WATTAGE CONVERSION Refer to FIGURE 8
The heater will produce less heat and use less electricity if converted to half-wattage. Remove the black jumper wire from the heating element and discard wire.
