competent electrician and be in accordance with the current IEE
wiring regulations.
Fixing Positions
This appliance may be either wall-mounted or fi xed to a ceiling -
see Fig. 2 for various fi xing positions and ‘Installation’ see section
below, for details on fi xing. Heaters may be mounted end to end
for wide doorways.
Installation
Using the wall mounting bracket as a guide (see ‘a’ in Fig. 3) mark
off the hole positions on the wall or ceiling (see ‘B’ in Fig. 1). A
minimum height of 1.8 metres is required from fl oor to bracket.
Fix the bracket in position by following steps as described under
the heading ‘Wall or Ceiling Mounting’.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting
Solid brick or concrete block walls must be drilled and plugged
(using a spirit level as a guide ensure bracket is level), due to
different types of wall constructions fi xings are not included, ensure
the correct fi xings are used. The plug must be located in the solid
part of the wall, not just in the plaster layer.
For panelled internal walls or ceilings, it is best to locate the
studding, position the heater fi xing bracket accordingly and use
screws supplied. If it is not possible to locate the studding, use
type M5 Rawlplug inserts, making the 10mm holes with a drill
rather than a bradawl or a screwdriver.
Locate the heater on the mounting bracket ensuring that the pozihead screws are fully engaged in the slots of the bracket.
It is important that the serrated metal washer (a) is located between
the heater holding bracket (b) and the wall mounting bracket (c).
Adjust heater to the required angle then fi rmly tighten the fi xing
screw (d) inside the endcap (e) using a cross-head screwdriver
(f) as shown in Fig. 4.

Release the screws at either end of the air-outlet grille (see Fig.
5) to gain access to the terminals for connection of the supply
cable - see Fig. 6.
Insert the mains cable down the outside of the back panel (not
on inside) and through the rear entry cable clamp and make
connection as shown in Fig. 6 (see also Fig. 7 for detailed views
of cable clamp).
Fig. 7a shows the cable clamp detail for AC3N & AC3RN
models.
Fig. 7b shows cable clamp detail for AC45N & AC6N models.
