3.1 Wall fixture and fittings
Drill, plug, and secure the brackets to the wall. Appropriate fixtures must be used
depending on the wall material:
Solid brick/High density block walls
These must be drilled and plugged with the Raw plug No. 10 size fiber inserts provided. The
correct size of drill (5.5mm) should be used and the hole should be drilled to a depth of 8
mm greater than the length of the Ra w plug so that the fixing is made below the plaster
layer.
Low density block walls
A special fixing, such as Unifix LB70 should be employed, following closely the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Paneled internal walls
It is preferable to locate the studding and use the No.10 size woodscrews provided. Where
it is not possible to locate the studding use Hollow wall anchors and securely fasten the
brackets to the plasterboard when this method is used we recommend that radiator feet are
used to take the full weight of the radiator. For other wall materials the wall panel
manufacturer s hould be consulted for details of suitable wall fixing devices.
Note: Radiators will be set to an approximate height of 185mm from the floor when support
feet are used.
Fit the two small suspension hooks into the bottom slots in the brackets, and hang
the bott om of the rad iator on them. Make s ure the radiator is sitting right back on the hooks
and not just resting on the fins
.
Fit the other two large suspension hooks in the top
slots of the brackets, and lift them up. Push the
radiator back against the wall and drop the suspension
hooks back down to lock it in position.
The top grille of the radiator can then be fitted and
secured with the securing screws at each end.

At the bottom of the radiator, next to the mains
connection there is a small temperature sensor.
Loosen the gland and pull the sens or do wn by 50 - 70
millimeters, then re-tighten the gland. This enables the
radiator to gauge the room’s temperature more
accurately
Installation of model:

RADIATOR POSITIONING - A m inimum c learan ce of 150mm t o t he f ront of the radiat or is
essential for safety, however to enable the radiator to attain its maximum performance
ensure that any furniture or other obstruction is not placed closer than 250mm.
THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE
CAUTION - THE SURFACE OF THIS RADIATOR CAN BE HOT.
The surface temperatures of this radiator are within the requirements of EN60-335 the
European Standard covering the safety requirements of electric heating appliances, and
momentary contact with any part of the radiator should not cause injury.
However, in order to be effective, radiators of any type do get hot, especially around the air
outlet grille.
Therefore, if aged or inf irm persons, or young childre n, are likely to be left unsupervised in
the vicinity of a radiator precautions should be taken to ensure that prolong ed contact with
the radiator cannot occur. We recommend t hat a guard is fitted aroun d the rad iator, as is
normal with some types of heating appliances in similar circumstances.
CAUTION - IN ORDER TO AVOID OVERHEATING, DO NOT COVER THE SURFACES
OF THE RADIATOR AND DO NOT OBSTRUCT AIR OUTLET GRILLES.
Surfaces of the radiator should not be covered or obstructed as this can cause excessive
temperatures that can be hazardous and may cause safety cut-outs to operate. For
example, do not put clothes, fabrics or any combustible materials on the radiator or allow
curtains to come within 75mm (3”) of the top and ends of the radiator. Do not allow furniture
to be pushed up against the radiator. A mi nimum clearance of 150mm is critical for safety,
however to ensure radiator performance is not affected a clearance of 250mm is
recommended.
DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS IN CONTACT WITH THE RADIATOR
CAUTION – The radiator must not be located below or of in front of a socket outlet.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS RADIATOR IS HEAVY AND MUST BE SECURELY FIXED TO A
SOUND WALL.
