• The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code.
•Blue - NEUTRAL Brown - LIVE.
• If your appliance is fitted with a non-rewireable mains plug
which is not suitable for the socket outlets in your home,
the plug must be cut off and an appropriate one fitted.
NOTE:
•A plug cut off from a flexible cord will give a shock haz-
ard if inserted in a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the
house. To avoid this, it should be disposed of immedi-
ately.
• If you are fitting an alternative type of plug then the
colours of the wires in the mains lead of the appliance
may not correspond with the coloured markings identi-
fying the terminals on your plug. In this case proceed as
follows:
• The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured
BLACK.
• The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or
coloured RED.
NOTE:
• For your additional safety, the heater has been double
insulated and must not be earthed.
• Therefore do not connect either of the wires to the earth
terminal of the three pin plug.
• If a 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used a 13 amp (BS 1362)
fuse must be fitted either in the plug, adaptor or at the
fuse board.
NOTE:
• The fuse cover of a non-rewireable plug must be refitted
when changing the fuse. Should the fuse cover become
lost, the plug must not be used until the correct
replacement fuse cover is obtained from our service
department or stockist.
Power cor
d:
• Position the power cord so that it does not pose a trip-
ping hazard or can be stepped on! Only use approved
extension cable that is suitable for the appliance rating.
• The power cord must not come into contact with hot
appliance parts!
• Never pull the plug out of the socket at the cord! Never
move the appliance by pulling at the cord or use the
cord for carrying purposes!
• Do not coil the cord around the appliance! Do not use
the appliance with the cord coiled!
This applies particularly to using a cable drum.

concealed cables. For this reason, no holes must be
made above or below wall power sockets.
• The appliance is not suitable for ceiling mounting.
• Mounting, see Fig. 4.
T
emperature setting:
• The thermostatic control “T” should be set to “MAX”:
Once the required room temperature is reached, it can be
turned back until a “click” (switch off) can be heard
(Fig. 7, 7a). This set temperature will be kept almost con-
stant by the thermostatic control switching on and off
automatically.
24-hour clock P (only SH 302 TLU):
• When set to , operation of the heater takes place
via the clock (P) controlled as programmed (Fig. 9),
provided a heat or cool setting is selected (thermostat T,

Attention: The frost guard function is inactive.
• When set to 1, operation takes place without clock via
switch(S) or thermostat(T) setting.
Attention: When set to 0, the heater is not ready to use.
• The clock operates automatically and only functions
when connected to the supply. In the event of a power
failure, the time must be reset.
Time setting:
•Turn the outer dial of the clock (P) clockwise until the
current time coincides with the triangle mark. One full
turn corresponds to 24 hours (Fig. 9b).
Clock pr
ogramming:
•Arranged along the edge are 94 pegs. These can be pus-
hed towards the centre individually. A peg corresponds to
15 minutes. When the inward positioned pegs are located
above the triangle mark on the housing, the appliance is
switched on (Fig. 9a/b).
Tilt pr
otection (SH 303):
• If the appliance should fall over during operation, it is
switched off automatically (Fig. 1a) and is ready to use
again when stood upright again.
