Assembly and Installation
Assembly
Before using the heater, the feet (supplied separately in the
carton) must be fitted to the unit. These are to be attached to
the base of the heater using the 4 self-tapping screws
provided, taking care to ensure that they are located correctly
in the bottom ends of the heater side mouldings (see Figure 1).
Wall-mounting
The heater is supplied with 4 sets of fixing brackets, screws and
plastic wall plugs to enable it to be mounted onto a wall if
required. If it is decided to fit the heater to a wall the feet must
be removed.
It must not be positioned in-front of, below a power socket, a
shelf, curtains or any other obstruction. Please refer to the
safety instructions.
Having decided on the location of the heater it is necessary to drill 2 fixing holes 8mm
diameter by 43mm deep at 417mm centres on a horizontal line at a minimum height of
400mm from the floor. Allowance must be made for the final floor covering, carpet etc, and if
any skirting boards are present, the fixing holes must be a minimum of 400mm above the top
edge of the skirting board. Using the plastic plugs and fixing screws provided, attach 2 of the
fixing brackets to the wall. The other pair of fixing brackets must be attached to the base of
the heater using the feet retaining screws so that the brackets project out at the rear of the
heater and space the bottom edge away from the wall.

If required, these brackets may also be secured to the wall using the remaining fixing screws
and plastic wall plugs. If this option is chosen it is suggested that the heater is hung on the
upper brackets and the hole positions for the lower brackets is then marked on the wall, prior
to drilling the holes for attachment purposes.
Operation of the heater
NOTE: It is normal when the heaters are turned on for the first time or when they are turned
on after having not been used for a long period of time the heaters may emit some smell and
fumes. This will disappear when the heater has been on a short while.
HS2020TXN Convector heater with switches,
thermostat and timer
Choose a suitable location for the heater, taking into account
the safety instructions above.
Insert the plug of the heater into a suitable socket.
Turn the thermostat knob (
in figure 2) fully in a clockwise
direction to the maximum setting.
Turn on the heating elements by means of the rocker switches
on the side panel (
in figure 2). When the heating elements
are on the switches will illuminate. For maximum heat output
both switches should be on.
When the desired room temperature has been reached, the
thermostat knob should be turned slowly anti-clockwise until
the thermostat is heard to click off and the lights on the
element switches are seen to go out. After this the heater will
keep the air temperature in the room at the set temperature
by switching on and off automatically.
In its minimum (fully anti-clockwise) position, the thermostat
provides a frost guard position. In this position (depending on
the size of the room) the heater will maintain the temperature
above freezing.
This model is also fitted with a 24hr timer which has 96
segments around its circumference, each segment being
equivalent to 15 minutes of time. With the aid of this timer it is
possible to preset the time and duration of the period(s) that it
is desired the heater will operate, in any 24hr period.
Timer Operation
The centre of the timer (figure 3) has a 3 position slide switch.
In the central position (denoted by the clock symbol
timer will switch the heater on and off at times set by the segments, (see setting the timer,
below).
The position denoted by the I is a timer override position. The timer will continue to run but
power will be fed continuously to the heater. This enables the heater to be on all the time if
required.
