Safety Information

When using any electrical appliance, safety precautions should always

be observed. Read these instructions carefully, and retain for future

reference. For service, contact your nearest authorised service agent.

•When used by, or near, young children or infirm persons, close

supervision is necessary. Young children should be supervised to

ensure that they do not play with the appliance, nor touch

anywhere near the outlet grille.

•Do NOT touch the outlet grille, as it is VERY hot.

•Do NOT use this appliance other than for its intended use.

•Do NOT cover the grilles or place any object or material up against

the unit, as this may block entry or exhaust of airflow.

•Do NOT probe any opening to remove fluff. To ensure trouble-free

performance it is recommended that on a regular basis the unit be

isolated from the power supply and a vacuum cleaner used to

remove dust and fluff from the inlet and outlet grilles.

•Do NOT allow the supply cord to come into contact with heated

surfaces during operation.

•Use this appliance with the voltage specified on the rating label.

•Be very careful not to touch hot surfaces or moving parts.

•If the supply cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by a

SKOPE authorised service agent, or similarly qualified person, in

order to avoid a hazard.

•Regulations require that electrical work be carried out by

authorised persons. For your own safety and that of others, ensure

this is done.

1.Remove wall bracket from the heater, with the chains attached,

by removing the two securing screws from top of the rear panel.

2.Fix wall bracket to wall using the four fixing screw holes provided

(see Figure 1 for dimensions).

3.Locate heater onto both bottom lugs of the wall bracket.

4.Hinge heater upwards, and replace retaining screws with link

plates of chain attached, and move heater to upright position.

The link plates should slide under the wall bracket retaining slot.

Operation

The controls are located behind a cover on the right hand end of the

heater. When the appliance is connected to the mains supply the neon

indicator on front of the heater should be illuminated. The operation of

the heater is controlled by use of the following controls:

Heat Switches

The heat output is controlled by two switches located under the

thermostat knob (see Figure 3 below). One switch depressed will give

half the heater output, while both switches depressed will give full heat

output.

Thermostat

The heater is fitted with a built-

in thermostat to control the

temperature level to which the

room is heated. The

thermostat adjustment knob is

located on the right hand end

and is numbered. Rotate the

knob clockwise to a higher

number to raise the room

temperature. Once set it is

unlikely to require to be

touched again.

Frost Watch

The ‘Frost Watch’ function is

intended to keep vacated areas

above freezing level, so water

pipes do not burst.

To set the heater to the Frost Watch mode, turn the thermostat control

knob fully anti-clockwise until the frost symbol aligns with mark.

24-Hour Timer

The heater must be connected to the mains supply in order for the timer

to operate continuously.

Set the correct time on the timer by rotating the dial clockwise until the

correct time is indicated on the 24-hour clock face.

Automatic Operation

Move the selector switch (immediately beneath the timer) to the auto

position designated .

The 24-hour timer can be set to give any combination of On/Off

intervals to a minimum of 15 minutes on. Select the 'On' time required

by pressing the black segment (on the circumference of the timer)

adjacent to the time required outwards. This will cause the heater to

switch 'On' at the selected time for 15 minutes operation. Each

additional segment pressed out will give a further 15 minutes of

operation. In this way, select the length of time required for the unit to

be 'On' and push out the number of 15-minute segments necessary to

select the time period required.

The timer can be set to give as many 'On' periods as required during

any 24-hour period.

This program will repeat itself every 24 hours until changed. This

program may be overridden at any time by switching to manual

operation.

Manual Operation

Move the selector switch, immediately beneath timer, to the manual

position designated . The heater will now run continuously,

controlled by the heat switches and thermostat setting.

Thermal Operated Cut-Out

The appliance is fitted with an Electronic Safety Control (ES). This is

a safety device, which switches the heater off if, for any reason, the

appliance overheats. The ES control can only be re-set after the

appliance has cooled down. In order to re-set the ES control, proceed

as follows:

1.Switch off appliance and leave for approximately 5 minutes.

2.Switch appliance back on and ES control will re-set.

3.Ensure that the appliance is functioning correctly. If the ES

control operates again, the appliance should be checked by a

competent electrician.

The heater carries a 'Do Not Cover' label to warn the user that if the

appliance is covered, there is a risk of overheating.

CAUTION:

In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal

cutout, this appliance must NOT be supplied through an external timer.

If your heater does not work:

•Check that power is available to the heater. The neon indicator on

front of the heater should be illuminated.

•Check that the thermal cut-out has not operated. If the cut-out has

operated follow the re-set instructions above.

•Do not attempt to repair the heater.

Care

The heater is best wiped down with a damp cloth. Do not use any

abrasive cleaners. Always disconnect the heater from the mains power

before cleaning the heater. When cleaning the heater:

•Do NOT use any abrasive cleaners

•Do NOT touch the heater with wet hands, or in any way bring

water into contact with the heater.
