3.6 Installing the heater | | Recommended tool | 
A Cordless screwdriver or electric drill

D Hammer
E Spanner with 8 mm WAF (open-end or ring) F Spanner with 10 mm WAF (open-end or ring)
G 8 mm drill suitable for the material of your wall / ceiling | | Assembly template | - Use the accompanying assembly template to determine the position of the drilling holes for product installation to the wall / ceiling. Always pay attention to the requirements for the installation site and the necessary minimum distances (see Point 3.4).
- We recommend using a spirit level when mounting onto a wall to ensure a vertical mounting position.
| Assembly
 | 1 First drill the required holes at the previously marked positions using an 8 mm drill suitable for the material of your wall or ceiling. Drill 4 holes for heaters up to max. 119,2 cm in length. Drill 6 holes for heaters from 120 cm in length.
The accompanying drilling template will also specify the number of holes. Please ensure correct positioning of the drilling holes for optimum mounting of the wall bracket (V-brackets) to be screwed on later.
|  | Use (if suitable for the material of your wall / ceiling) the supplied dowels, lag bolts and washers from the “Standard fi xing set” supplied with the heater as shown on the left. 2 Insert the dowels into the holes (drive in with a hammer if necessary) and screw in the screws with washers using a 10 mm spanner. Do not completely tighten the screws. Make sure there is 4 mm of space be tween the washer and the wall / ceiling.
3 Check whether all wall brackets (V brackets) of your heater point in the same direction with the opening. If not, align the V-brackets uniformly in one direction. It doesn’t matter which direction it is.
In case of ceiling assembly, make sure the next assembly step is undertaken by two people. Have a ladder at hand (if required).
4 Lift the heater to the mounting position so that the openings of the V-brackets are situated directly in front of the screws that are already in place. |
 |
| 5 Slide the heater sideways until the screws are fully engaged into the V-brackets. Pay attention to the washers. 6 Lock the heater in place by rotating the V-brackets 180º: |
 |
| Wall mounting:
Turn any “V-bracket”
| Ceiling mounting:
Turn any two “V-brackets”
|
| 7 Tighten all 8 or 12 screws using both 8 and 10 mm spanners. Check the secure fi tting of the heater. |
