3.1
Wall fixture and fittings
Drill, plug, and secure the brackets to the wall. Appropriate fixtures must be used
depending on the wall material:
Solid brick/High density block walls
These must be drilled and plugged with the Raw plug No. 10 size fiber inserts provided.
The
correct size of drill (5.5mm) should be used and the hole should be drilled to a
depth of 8
mm greater than the length of the Raw plug so that the fixing is made below
the plaster
layer.
Low density block walls
A special fixing, such as Unifix LB70 should be employed, following closely the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Paneled internal walls
It is preferable to locate the studding and use the No.10 size woodscrews provided.
Where
it is not possible to locate the studding use Hollow wall anchors and securely
fasten the
brackets to the plasterboard when this method is used we recommend that
radiator feet are
used to take the full weight of the radiator. For other wall materials
the wall panel
manufacturer should be consulted for details of suitable wall fixing devices.
Note: Radiators will be set to an approximate height of 185mm from the
fl
oor
when support
feet are used.
Fit the two small suspension hooks into the bottom slots in the brackets, and hang
the bottom of the radiator on them. Make sure the radiator is sitting right back on the
hooks
and not just resting on the fins
.
Fit the other two large suspension hooks
in the top
slots of the brackets, and lift
them up. Push the
radiator back against
the wall and drop the suspension
hooks
back down to lock it in position.
The top grille of the radiator can then be
fitted and
secured with the securing
screws at each end.

At the bottom of the radiator, next to the
mains
connection there is a small
temperature sensor.
Loosen the gland and
pull the sensor down by 50 - 70
millimeters,
then re-tighten the gland. This enables the
radiator to gauge the room’s temperature
more
accurately

4.0 Operating safety
This appliance complies with the European Standards EN 60 335-1, EN 60 335-2-61, EN
61000-3-2, EN 61000-3-3, EN 55014 and EN55104 for Safety & Electromagnetic
Compatibility. These standards cover the requirement of the EMC Directives 89/336 &
73/23
RADIATOR POSITIONING
- A minimum clearance of 150mm to the front of the
radiator is
essential for safety, however to enable the radiator to attain its maximum
performance
ensure that any furniture or other obstruction is not placed closer than
250mm.
THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE
CAUTION - THE SURFACE OF THIS RADIATOR CAN BE HOT.
The surface temperatures of this radiator are within the requirements of EN60-335 the
European Standard covering the safety requirements of electric heating appliances, and
momentary contact with any part of the radiator should not cause injury.
However, in order to be effective, radiators of any type do get hot, especially around
the air
outlet grille.
Therefore, if aged or infirm persons, or young children, are likely to be left
unsupervised in
the vicinity of a radiator precautions should be taken to ensure that
prolonged contact with
the radiator cannot occur. We recommend that a guard is fitted
around the radiator, as is
normal with some types of heating appliances in similar
circumstances.
CAUTION - IN ORDER TO AVOID OVERHEATING, DO NOT COVER THE SURFACES
OF THE RADIATOR AND DO NOT OBSTRUCT AIR OUTLET GRILLES
.
Surfaces of the
radiator should not be covered or obstructed as this can cause excessive
temperatures
that can be hazardous and may cause safety cut-outs to operate. For
example, do not
put clothes, fabrics or any combustible materials on the radiator or allow
curtains to
come within 75mm (3”) of the top and ends of the radiator. Do not allow furniture
to
be pushed up against the radiator. A minimum clearance of 150mm is critical for safety,
however to ensure radiator performance is not affected a clearance of 250mm is
recommended.
DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS IN CONTACT WITH THE RADIATOR
CAUTION
– The radiator must not be located below
or of in front of
a socket outlet.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS RADIATOR IS HEAVY AND MUST BE SECURELY FIXED TO A
SOUND WALL

In case of breakdown or other failure, switch off the radiator at
both wall switches and
contact your supplier or the LHZ Help Desk on +49 (0) 3722 63370
Always ensure that the radiator is switched off at the wall and fuse is removed before
any
repair is carried out.
IMPORTANT
- Due to the newness of the materials the radiator will produce a slight
smell for
the first few days of operation.
ROOMS MUST BE WELL VENTILATED AND YOUNG CHILDREN, CAGED BIRDS OR
PERSONS WITH RESPIRATORY COMPLAINTS MUST NOT REMAIN IN CLOSE
PROXIMITY TO THE RADIATOR DURING THE FIRST 48 HOURS OF THE
COMMISSIONING PERIOD
.
Running the radiator at maximum temperature for the
first few days will help to dispel any
smells more quickly.
Please note that at high setting the room temperature will be warmer with a
corresponding
increase in running costs.
Safety - Overheat Protection
For your safety, this appliance is fitted with thermal cut-outs. In the event that the
product
overheats, the cut-outs switch the radiator off automatically. In the event of
these safety cut-
outs activating please inform the installer or the LHZ Help Desk.

Cleaning
To maintain the external appearance of the radiator it need only be wiped over
occasionally
with a dry duster. During the summer months, or at other times when the
appliance is not is
use and is completely cold, the opportunity should be taken to wipe
over with a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaning powders or furniture polish.
Discoloration of wall finishes can
sometimes occur immediately above a radiator due to
the properties of some paints and
decorating materials or the presence of
environmental impurities in the air (such as soot or
incense generated from the burning
of candles etc.).
