ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
CAUTION
To prevent short circuits and electrical shocks, turn the power off at the main panel before installing or repairing
the heater. If the power cord of the appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by CONVECTAIR or an approved
service depot to avoid any danger.
CONVECTAIR recommends that the heater be installed by a qualified electrician and in
accordance with national and local codes.
A standard rectangular junction box must be installed in the wall, prior to electrical hookup.
The box must be of appropriate size to receive the necessary electrical connections and the
7 cm x 11,5 cm (2 3/4 in. x 4 in.) cover that is supplied with the heater.
CAUTION
This heater must be connected to a 208V or 220-240 Volt (60 cycles) circuit.
1- Connect the ground wire (C) to the green conductor (G) from the heater (see Fig. C).
2- Connect the two line wires to the red (R) and black (B) conductors from the heater.
3- The purple conductor with a plastic seal (PW) is only to be used when connecting the hea-
ter to a central CONVECTAIR Programmer (for more informations, contact CONVECTAIR by
calling1 800 463-6487 or online at www.convectair.com).
4- Carefully place all conductors in the wall junction box.
5- Position the heater in front of the bracket, angling it so that the top is away from the wall.
6- Lift the heater slightly to hook the bottom of the heater on the bracket.
7- Attach the two safety chains.
8- Lift and push the heater towards the wall to place it on the bracket. Lock it into position
with the plastic locking screw.
