existing furniture units if they can be temporarily moved from their position against

the wall. If an existing furniture unit cannot be moved, then it may be necessary to

remove the back of the unit in order to gain access to carry out the wiring installation.

Before installing the unit consider the location with respect to the following;

• The electrical supply and cable length.

• Position heater to deliver heat eectively without causing personal discomfort

from overheating while standing at work surfaces etc.

• Minimum plinth height of 150mm and minimum furniture unit width of 1000mm.

WARNING: The installation of this appliance should be carried out by a competent

electrician and be in accordance with the current IEE wiring regulations

and any local or insurance regulations.
