and secure to studs using four holes provided on side

anges, ensuring these anges are ush with

nished surface of wall (Fig. 2b).

Supply Wiring and Heater Installation

through knockout provided in upper left hand corner (Fig. 2b).

Wire should be rated for a minimum of 75°C (167°F)

2. Connect power supply to terminals provided marked L1 and L2.

Ground wire should be secured to green ground screw provided

on side of heater assembly (Fig. 1).

3. All units are factory prewired for operation with built-in thermostat.

If remote thermostat operation is required follow appropriate

wiring diagram located on inside of recess box.

NOTE: All wiring must comply with National Electrical Code and

local codes.

4. Secure heater assembly to recess box using four (4) M4 screws

removed at the start of these instructions.

Front Panel Installation

1. Remove trim frame from front panel assembly.

2. If tamperproof built-in or remote thermostat operation is required,

secure the louvered door to the front panel using two (2) M3

screws (not included) through the holes provided. The knob can

then be removed and adjustment of the thermostat can be made using a slotted screwdriver through the front

panel.

3. Check to see that the fan blade is free to turn and that no residue remains in the unit. Front panel can then

be secured to assembly using four (4) M4.8 x 37 screws provided.

4. Follow the steps in Fig. 3.

Operation and Maintenance

1. Set thermostat to desired temperature and both fan and heat should come on. Note that when desired

temperature is reached the fan operation will continue for a short period after the elements have de-

energized in order to remove residual heat from the unit.

2. The fan motor is permanently lubricated and sealed at the factory and is maintenance free.

3. It is suggested that at the beginning of each season the front panel is removed and the wire connection

condition is checked and the unit is cleaned of dust and dirt with a vacuum cleaner.

NOTE: Always open the circuit breaker to disconnect power to the unit prior to performing any maintenance or

service operation.

WARNING: Should the Over Temp light come on, disconnect power to the heater or turn down the thermostat

fully counterclockwise and call a licenced electrician. DO NOT USE HEATER UNTIL PROBLEM IS

DETERMINED AND FIXED.
