I n t r o d u c t i o n

The Sorrento IP heater produces radiant heat like the sun, warming people and objects rather than the air in between. It is mounted on an adjustable
bracket that allows the heat to be directed exactly where it is required. Its attractive, lightweight design means that it is effective yet unobtrusive. The
Sorrento IP heater is designed for indoor and outdoor use so is therefore weatherproof.

Please read the following instructions carefully before use. The safety of this heater is guaranteed only by its correct usage in accordance
with these instructions, therefore it is recommended that they are retained for future reference.

M a i n t e n a n c e

In the event of heater failure, or for spare parts or advice, please contact the manufacturer in the first instance.



Disconnect from the mains before commencing any maintenance procedure including cleaning.



To ensure optimum heat effectiveness, it is recommended that that the guard is removed and the reflector is wiped with a lint-free cloth should the
reflector show considerable signs of dust or dirt.

C a u t i o n



Before using this appliance:

- Check that the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to the mains supply voltage.

- Ensure that the heater has been securely fastened in its final mounting position.



Do not locate the heater immediately below a socket outlet.



Remove the plug from the mains socket (or disconnect pole switch) during installation, cleaning and/or replacing the emitter
and always ensure that the emitter is cool.



Do not handle the quartz emitter with bare hands. If it is inadvertently touched, remove finger marks with a soft cloth and
methylated spirit or rubbing alcohol. Otherwise, the marks will burn into the quartz glass causing premature heater failure.



Do not use an extension cable with this product.



Keep the mains cable away from the body of the heater which will get hot during use.



Do not cover or obstruct the heater while it is in use.



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 or 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.



Do not insert any object through any slot or opening in the heater.



Do not use if guard is not present.



Do not install less than the minimum mounting distance from the floor.



Do not use the heater in a bathroom.



W A R N I N G : R i s k o f F i r e

Keep combustible materials such as furniture, papers, clothes and curtains at least 1.8m (6 feet) from the front of the heater and away
from the sides and rear. If the heater is to be used outside, we recommend that a waterproof or indoor socket is used.

Y o u r R e p l a c e m e n t E m i t t e r

It is very important that your replacement emitter is exactly the same as the one it was supplied with. Failure to fit the exact same type could cause the
heater to fail or even become dangerous especially when used in an outdoor environment.
Please contact Tansun Limited to purchase your replacement emitter and state the model number of the heater you wish to fit the emitter to.

H a n d l i n g t h e R e p l a c e m e n t E m i t t e r

Your new quartz emitter should not be handled with bare hands.
Remove finger marks with a soft cloth and methylated spirits or rubbing alcohol. Finger marks will burn into the quartz glass causing it to fail
prematurely.

R e p l a c i n g t h e E m i t t e r

If you are in any doubt about following the procedure below, please contact us for technical assistance. The mains power should be
disconnected before any attempts are made to replace the emitter. The following should be carried out with compliance to the latest IEE
regulations. If you are unfamiliar with installing such fixtures, contact a qualified electrician to carry out.

1. Ensure the heater and emitter are cool and the power supply is disconnected by removing the plugs from the socket outlet - all plugs must be
removed even if only one emitter is to be replaced.

2. Remove the screws from the terminal box at the back of the emitter you wish to replace and lift off the lid - see Fig. P.

The Sorrento IP heater is a single emitter unit - it has only one emitter. It can be installed as an individual unit or joined to one or two more individual
units. It is supplied with joining bars that connects two heaters together to increase the size and output of the installation. The maximum number of
single units that can be joined together is three (long joining bars required – available separately). Please read the section ‘joining individual heaters
together’ for information on how this should be done.

The wired versions (210 UK, 210 EU, 215 UK, 215 EU, 220 UK & 220 EU) are fitted with 5.0 metres of supply cable and a moulded plug, therefore
it is unnecessary to remove the terminal box in order to carry out normal installation of these models.



All unwired versions (210, 215 & 220) should be installed by a suitably qualified electrician, following the instructions below.



All installations must be in accordance with the latest I.E.E safety regulations or equivalent.



We recommend using a RCD where applicable.



If self wiring, a large double pole switch with a 3.0mm contact disconnection should be fitted.



If the supply cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard.



Please observe the minimum safe distance between the heater body and any inflammable surfaces.
