IMPORTANT NOTES: It is important to read these instructions carefully and also note the information given on the heater itself.

As these particular instructions refer to the assembly and installation of a new heater, they should be retained by the installer; not left

behind for the user as this would invite the dismantling and servicing by unqualified persons. FOR THE USER, there is a separate

instruction leaflet explaining how the heater should best be operated. Please see that this leaflet is left with the heater for the user’s

purposes. A MEANS FOR DISCONNECTION IN ALL POLES MUST BE INCORPORATED IN THE FIXED WIRING IN ACCORDANCE

WITH THE WIRING RULES, THE INSTALLATION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN. CABLE HAVING A

MINIMUM ‘T’ RATING OF 85ºC MUST BE USED. Heaters forming part of a comprehensive space heating system should be wired

with their own separate circuit, if however, 1 or 2 heaters are installed as a starter system these may be connected to a 30 amp ring

main provided that the instructions below are observed, any further heaters installed must be connected by its own circuit. If connected

to a 30 amp ring circuit the total rating of heaters connected must not exceed 3kW, where the circuit supplies a kitchen, or 4kW,

where the circuit does not include a kitchen. The storage radiator is designed to run on cheap overnight electricity, therefore the

means of connecting the heater to the ring main should include a timer. These should be connected to the supply with 3 core heat

resistant cable, the size of which is dependant on heater loading i.e. loading up to 10 amps use 1mm², up to 13 amps use 1.5mm²

and for the larger heaters 2.5mm² cable. If installed in a bathroom the heater must not be accessible to a person using a bath,

wash basin etc., and must be controlled by a fused, double pole switch within 2 metres of the appliances. It is not recommended

that a heater installed in a bathroom should be connected to a ring main circuit. The heater must not be installed immediately

below a fixed socket outlet. WARNINGS - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED - SPECIAL ATTENTION MUST BE PAID TO THE

SECURITY OF THE HEATER’S WALL FIXINGS. TO MAINTAIN STABILITY, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE HEATER IS PLACED ON A

LEVEL SURFACE AND CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO AVOID IRREGULAR SURFACES, SUCH AS MAY RESULT FROM CARPETS OR

TILED SURROUNDS PARTIALLY PROTRUDING UNDER THE HEATER. IF, DURING ANY REASSEMBLY OF THE HEATER, A PART OF

THE THERMAL INSULATION SHOWS DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION WHICH MAY IMPAIR SAFETY, IT SHOULD BE REPLACED

BY AN IDENTICAL PART.

WALL FIXING: The heater must ALWAYS be mounted against, and fixed to a wall as it will not stand up by itself. A detachable

bracket is provided for screwing to the wall, the heater is then placed in position and fixed to the bracket by a screw at each end.

The heater must never be unscrewed or moved from the wall bracket whilst it is loaded with bricks. THE HEATER IS VERY HEAVY

AND WILL BE DANGEROUS IF ITS WALL FIXING BECOMES INSECURE.

Solid Brick and Concrete Walls

No. 10 Rawlplug plastic inserts. Drill
hole of 8mm dia to a depth of 15mm
greater than depth of the insert.

Panelled Wall, Paramount Board, Chipboard, Plasterboard, etc.

Check that the panel itself is adequately fixed to battens etc. Use
Rawlplug M5 intersets; drill accurate 10mm dia holes in single skin
plasterboard. One fixing should be in studwork.

Hollow concrete, Breeze Block and Thermolite Block Walls

RAWLPLUG ‘RAWLOK R6054R’. Some authorities suggest UNIFIX LB
70/10mm.

Timber Frame

Seek specialist advice, some au­thorities suggest RAWLNUT

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or

lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision for instruction concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

PLEASE DON’T TAKE CHANCES

Site conditions may vary considerably and Creda

cannot recommend the correct wall fixings to be

used. It is the responsibility of the installer to

ensure that adequate permanent fixing has been

achieved. Purely for guidance the suggested

fixings are made for certain wall materials but this

list is not comprehensive or authoritative. Different

wall constructions will need different inserts. Note

that inserts incorporating plastic may be subject

to shrinkage behind a warm storage heater and

are therefore not recommended.

Wall fixings can be obtained from local

stockists

CARPETS: For safety, the heater must be positioned in the room so that there at least 75mm (3”) free air space all around it; under

windows, ensure that curtains, when drawn, cannot touch or cover the heater casing. In order to maintain stability, it is essential

that the heater be placed on a level surface and care should be taken to avoid irregular surfaces, such as may result from carpets or

tiled surrounds partially protruding under the heater. The heater feet are designed to go underneath a carpet rather than standing

on it; this permits the weight to be taken on a firm base and makes for neatness and ease of cleaning with vacuum cleaners, etc.

underneath the heater. Carpet gripper should be removed from behind the heater feet.

BRICKS: The heater casing and the heater storage bricks with which it must be fitted, are delivered in separate packages. The

brick is common to all heaters, packed in pairs.

The brick catalogue number is 791402015. 7934 models have 8 bricks. 7935 models have 12 bricks. 7936 have 16 bricks.
