6SKOPE Surface and Recessed Wall Fan Heater
Installation and Operating Instructions
Surface Mounted Models: 989E, 990E
Installation Instructions
This appliance MUST be installed in accordance with relevant wiring
rules and regulations (AS/NZS 3000:2007 Wiring Rules). If installed in
a bathroom, the heater must be positioned so that switches and other
controls cannot be touched by a person in the bath or shower.
This heater is not intended to be mounted at high level. The heater
MUST be mounted on the wall, minimum distances of 200mm from
floor level and 300mm from any adjacent wall (see the installation
diagram on page 7). The heater must NOT be located immediately
below a socket outlet and should be positioned on the wall in such a
location that it will not create a draft to anyone sitting in the room.
If the heater is to be permanently wired, a suitable disconnection device
(acting in all active supplies) is required to be incorporated in the fixed
supply wiring. Remove the metal knockout in the back of the heater, to
allow for cable entry, and insert the plastic grommet provided into the
cable entry hole, or use the entry hole at the bottom of the heater. Cable
entry position on the wall, relative to heater fixing holes, is shown in the
installation diagram on the following page.
To fix the heater to the wall:
1. Remove the hinged front panel from the heater by unscrewing the
two screws at the top of the front panel. The hinged front panel
may be removed for ease of installation.
2. Attach the heater to the wall by screwing the four fixing screws
(provided) through mounting holes on the back of the heater. At
least two of the fixing screws should be attached to a wall stud.
Alternatively toggle bolts (not provided) could be used where stud
centres are inconvenient. For fixing hole centres, see the
installation diagram on page 7.
3. Connect mains wiring to the terminal block and refit the hinged
front panel.
4. Following installation or a period of non-use, in order to free up
the lubricant, operate the appliance on FAN ONLY setting for
approximately five minutes before using the heat settings.
