IMPORTANT – If the heater is installed in a room containing a bath or shower, it must be so installed that switches and other controls cannot be touched by a person using a bath or shower. Do not use outdoors. Do not locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket outlet or connection box. Do not cover the heater. Do not place material or garments on the heater, or obstruct the air circulation around the heater, for instance by curtains or pushing furniture up against the heater, as this could cause overheating and a fire risk. NEVER cover or obstruct in any way the heat outlet slots at the top of the heater or the air inlet slots in the base of the heater. The heater carries the Warning symbol indicating that it must not be covered. WARNING – THE SURFACES OF THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT. Momentary contact with any part of the heater should not cause injury. However, aged or infirm persons or young children should not be left unsupervised in the vicinity of the heater unless a suitable guard is fitted. This appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons without assistance or supervision if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Note that due care and consideration must be taken when using this heater in series with a thermal control, a program controller, a timer or any other device that switches on the heat automatically, since a fire risk exists when the heater is accidentally covered or displaced. If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Electrical WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED The electrical installation must be carried out by a competent electrician, and be in strict accordance with the current I.E.E. regulations for Electrical Equipment in Buildings. The heater is fitted with a length of flexible cable type H05VVF size 3 x 1.0mm2 on models PLX 500 - 2000 and size 3 x 1.5mm2 on PLX 3000 models, for connection to the fixed wiring of the premises through a suitable connection box positioned adjacent to the heater. The supply circuit to the heater must incorporate a double pole isolating switch having a contact separation of at least 3mm. Supplementary Earth Bonding Should Equipotential Earth Bonding be required the earthing conductor in the supply cord is deemed to provide the supplementary bonding connection (see Regulation 54703-05, 16th Edition I.E.E. Wiring Regulations). General The PLX Convector is designed for wall mounting on the wall brackets supplied. It should only be operated when in the upright position as shown. All models are splashproof to IP24 standard. Models PLX…TI are fitted with a 24 hour programmable timer. Models PLX…TX are fitted with a 7 Day programmable timer. Models PLX…NC are fitted with no controls, for use with external thermostatic or programming controllers. Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is the same as that stated on the heater. Wall Mounting Thermostat Operation IMPORTANT – The wall brackets supplied with the appliance must be used. The heater should be positioned observing the minimum clearances stated around the heater - see Fig. 1. The heater is fitted with an adjustable thermostat enabling the room temperature to be controlled by adjusting the setting accordingly. The * setting represents a room temperature of approximately 5°C and may be used for protection against frost. Higher temperature settings range from 1-6 (max.) creating a room temperature of approximately 30°C. DO NOT locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket outlet or connection box. 1. 2. 3. 4. Remove wall mounting bracket from the back of the heater by depressing the spring latch at the top of each bracket - see Fig. 2. Fix the wall bracket securely to the wall through the four screw holes provided. Present the heater to the wall bracket, and engage lower slots in the back with bracket. Raise the heater to upright position and push the heater onto brackets to engage top latch. A neon indicator light glows when the appliance is actually heating. Switch on the heater and turn the thermostat knob to mark 6 opposite the indicator mark (located on centre right of the knob - see Fig. 4 & 5), and set selector switch to full heat output to warm the room rapidly. When the room temperature has reached the desired level, turn the thermostat knob back slowly until the thermostat just clicks off. The heater will then maintain the room temperature at the chosen level, provided that the correct size of heater has been selected for the room to be heated. NOTE – Should your heater fail to come on when the thermostat knob is at a low setting, this may be due to the room temperature being higher than the thermostat setting. Operation - TI and TX Timer Models 255 MIN Control of Output and Temperature (see Fig. 5) Fig. 2 The slide switch on the timer unit controls the electricity supply to the heating elements on TI and TX models. The switch marked I - II (half heat – full heat) provides a choice of output as desired. Access to the controls The controls cover (see ‘x’ in Fig. 1) on your heater has a latch which may be locked shut if desired using a small bladed screwdriver - see Fig. 3. To open the cover insert the blade of the screwdriver in the small slot and rotate a quarter of a turn clockwise to disengage the latch. The cover may then be hinged back towards the wall for access to the controls. Fig. 5 Thermostat Operation - see above. Using the Timer The heater must be connected to the electricity supply for the timer to operate. Set the timer by rotating the dial clockwise until the correct time of day is indicated opposite the datum mark (located at centre front of the timer - see Fig. 5). Fig. 3 Operation - Thermostat only models ‘OFF’ Position Control of Output and Temperature (see Fig. 4) Set the timer switch to position. The timer operates but the heater will not output any heat, as the electricity supply to the heating elements has been disconnected. The switch marked O and I controls the electricity supply to the heating elements. The OFF position is marked O. The switch marked I - II (half heat – full heat) provides a choice of output as desired. Fig. 4 Manual Operation position. The heater will now operate Set the timer switch to continuously under the control of the thermostat - see ‘Thermostat Operation’ above. Automatic Operation Safety - Overheat protection Set the timer switch to position. The panel will now operate during set ‘ON’ periods under the control of the thermostat. For your safety this appliance is fitted with a thermal cut-out. In the event that the product overheats for some reason, the cut-out prevents excessive temperatures on the product by cutting the power to the heater. Once the heater has cooled down, it will reset automatically, it will continue to cycle on and off automatically until the reason for overheating is removed. To set the timer’s ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ periods: 14 Fig. 6 13 12 11 1. Using your finger tip or the tip of a pencil, push in as many segments as necessary around the dial, according to the times you don’t require heat – see Fig. 6. Each segment pushed in switches the heater OFF for that part of the hour. All other segments will be ‘ON’. Cleaning Before commencing cleaning, unplug the heater and allow it to cool. Disconnect the electricity supply to the appliance. 2. You can select as many ‘ON’ periods as you like, within the 24-hour day. The settings will repeat every day until changed. The outside can be cleaned by wiping it over with a soft damp cloth and then dried. Do not use abrasive cleaning powders or furniture polish, as this can damage the surface finish. 3. To change ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ times, simply push in any ‘ON’ segments you wish to cancel and pull out new ‘ON’ segments as required. To release heater from the wall bracket for cleaning or redecoration, depress latch on both brackets (see Fig. 2) and hinge forward. Note: On TI models each segment on the timer represents 20 mins. After Sales Service TX Models TX Models are fitted with 7 day programmable timers. In all other respects they are identical in installation and operation to 24 hour timer operation on TI models. 1. Setting the Time The current day and time is set by rotating the timer dial clockwise until the correct day and time is indicated opposite the datum mark. 2. Automatic Operation Set the time switch to the symbol. Select the days and times you require the heater to come on by pulling out the appropriate segments. Each segment represents a 13/4 hour period for the day indicated. The timer may be set to give as many ‘ON’ periods of any length required in multiples of 13/4 hours. The programme will repeat itself every 7 days until changed. The programme may be over-ridden at any time by switching or to setting. and can be reinstated by switching back to Your product is guaranteed for two years from the date of purchase.

Energy Saving Tips Other Energy Saving Tips for Around the Home The energy we use to heat, light and power our homes contributes over a quarter of the UK’s carbon emissions, the principle contributor to climate change. 1. Lights Around half the energy used in the home is for heating and hot water, so using your heating system efficiently will not only help the environment, but also save you money ! Energy efficiency tips for heating and hot water 1. Don’t set the temperature too high… Turn off lights whenever you leave a room for more than ten minutes. Use low-energy bulbs wherever you can as they use less than a quarter of the electricity used by ordinary light bulbs and last ten times longer! 2. Cooking Use the right size pan for the food and cooker hob. By reducing the thermostat setting by just 1ºC can reduce your energy use by as much as 10%. And if you’re going away for the winter, leave the thermostat on the frost protection setting to provide protection from freezing at a minimum cost. Keep saucepan lids on - this enables you to turn down the heat. Boil water for cooking in a kettle. 2. Use it where you need it… Set the appropriate temperature on your heaters for the room they are in; for example, leave the thermostat on a heater in a spare bedroom on a lower setting. 3. Use it when you need it… Use heaters fitted with timers or linked to central controllers to turn the heating on only when you need it and automatically switch it off when you don’t. 4. Curtains… Close your curtains at dusk to stop heat escaping through the windows. 5. Windows… Nearly 25% of heat loss can occur through poorly insulated frames and single glazing. If you can’t afford to double glaze all your windows, go for the rooms you heat most. 6. Treat your hot water tank...give it a jacket An insulating jacket for hot water tanks only costs a few pounds and pays for itself within months. Fit one that’s at least 75mm (3") thick and you could save £10-£15 a year. 7. Water … Use a shower if you have one to save time, money and water. Don’t set the thermostat too high on your water heater - 60oC/ 140oF is usually adequate for bathing and washing. Put the plug in when running hot water in your sink - leaving hot taps running is both wasteful and expensive. Ensure dripping taps are repaired quickly. In just one day, you could waste enough water to fill a bath. The product complies with the European Safety Standards EN60335-2-30 and the European Standard Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) EN55014, EN60555-2 and EN60555-3 which cover the essential requirements of EEC Directives 73/23 and 89/336 Glen Dimplex UK Limited Millbrook House Grange Drive Hedge End Southampton Hampshire.
