If this heater is mounted above a shelf or other
wall mounted object then there must be aminimum

The wiring within the wall cavity can be terminated
into the respective terminals marked L and N on

page).
The Wall Mounting Base must be secured with
all four screw fixing points.
Securely fix the wall mounting base to the wall

To check the heater is fully locked to the mounting
base, attempt to gently slide the heater
upwards. It should be securely held in position.
To remove the heater from the wall mounting base
insert a blade screwdriver into the hole located
below the middle of the outlet grille. Rotate the
screwdriver until the clip releases. Then while
