IMPORTANT

Installer and Users please note:

These instructions should be read carefully and left with the
user of the product for future reference.

BEFORE USE

You must inspect the appliance including its cable and plug
for any signs of damage. If the product is damaged, DO NOT
use it, and contact your supplier immediately.

INSTALLATION

The EH1464 must be permanently fixed to a wall.
Draw a horizontal line on the wall and mark the centre point.

Drill two holes 285mm (11¼") either side of the centre and
insert wall plugs.

Drill a third hole 10mm above the centre point, and insert a
wall plug.

Insert screws into the outer two wall plugs and screw in until
there is a gap of about 3mm between the screw head and the
wall.

Place the heater so that the holes in the rear panel go over
the screw heads, then move it 15mm to the right so that it
hangs securely from the screws.

Insert a screw through the metal bracket on the upper part of
the case of the heater into the third wall plug and fix the
heater securely to the wall.

PAT TESTING

When used in a workplace, this product must be safety­tested yearly by a qualified electrician (PAT Tested) in order
to comply with the Electricity at Work Regulations.

We recommend that it is PAT tested regularly when used in a
domestic environment.

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Domestic wiring must be tested periodically by a qualified
electrician at least once every 10 years or at every change of
occupancy.

For office and retail premises, and buildings such as village
halls, the wiring must be inspected at least once every 5
years.

It is recommended that all buildings be fitted with smoke
alarms (it is mandatory for new buildings).

heater.

Press the ADJUSTOR button once, twice or three times to
select cool air, low heat or high heat.

OPERATING COSTS

At time of going to press, the average cost of electricity is
£0.12 per unit (kilowatt-hour). The amount you are being
charged will be shown on your electricity bill.

At this cost, the EH1464 will cost £0.24 per hour to run with
the thermostat set to its maximum.

If the thermostat is used to regulate the temperature the
operating costs will be lower, depending on the room
temperature.

MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning, turn the heater off, and disconnect from the
mains supply. The heater may then be cleaned using a damp
cloth with a drop of washing-up liquid to remove any dust or
dirt from the case. Do no use stronger detergents or solvents
as these may damage the plastic.

Using a dry 1" (25mm) paint-brush, remove any dust from the
grilles.

If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or and authorised service centre.

If the mains plug needs to be replaced, proceed as follows:

• Connect the brown wire to the terminal
labelled "L".

• Connect the blue wire to the terminal
labelled "N".

• Make sure that the cord-grip is positioned
correctly (over the outer sheath of the
cable) and it fully tightened.

FAULT-FINDING

The EH1464 has an overheat protection switch, which
disconnects the power if the element gets too hot. The usual
reason for this is because the air-flow has been obstructed,
or the grilles have been blocked. If the heater ceases to
operate, leave it for 20 minutes to cool down, then check that
the grilles are not being obstructed.

Switch back on, and check that the unit is operating normally.
If not, contact an authorised service agent for repair.
