General
The NP panel heater is designed for wall mounting on the bracket
supplied and it should only be operated when in the installed position
as shown in Fig. 1 above. Before connecting the heater check that
the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the heater. The mains
neon indicator will glow to show when the heater is connected to the
mains supply. The NP panel heater has no controls and is operated
with an external thermostatic or programming controller.
Wall Mounting
IMPORTANT – The wall bracket supplied with the appliance must
be used. The heater should be positioned observing the minimum
clearances stated around the heater - see Fig. 1.
Select a suitable position on a wall, near to a mains power socket,
making sure that there is at least 230 mm below the heater and at
least 450 mm above the heater of unobstructed space. Ensure that
curtains and furniture are not positioned close to the chosen position,
as this would create a potential fire hazard.

depressing the spring latch at the top of each bracket - see
