General
Your Dimplex electric towel rail has been designed to provide a year-round
service for airing towels and articles of clothing. It is not intended to provide a
sole heating service, but the larger models will take the chill off a normal size
bathroom or toilet.
Your rail will be in one of three sizes and will have either a chrome plated or stove-
enamel nish. The rail wattage has been carefully selected to ensure a suitable
surface temperature is maintained during normal operation conditions. The towel
rail has a sealed electrical element controlled by a pre-set thermostat which will
switch off the rail should it overheat for any reason.
All models are water proof to IPX5.
Use
Your Dimplex towel rail can quite safely be left on continuously if desired without
detrimental effect. When in use however no more than two layers of towelling or
similar fabric should be draped over each rail. It is not advisable to leave very damp
clothes or towels on the rail when it is not in use, as this may affect the nish.
The rail when in use, though hot to the touch, is not hot enough to scorch or burn
towels or clothes. However, soap and detergents remaining in articles after washing
can cause what appear to be scorch marks after being in contact with a hot rail.
Care should be taken therefore to thoroughly rinse out all articles before airing.
Electrical

must be incorporated in the xed wiring.

Place carefully around the upright bars the four mounting straps at the position
shown - see Fig. 2. (Note the straps must be positioned up tight to the cross bar as
indicated). Securely x them by screwing in place fully the M4 x 10mm screw. Ensure
the brackets are tted with the rear of the straps facing directly backwards.
Step 3
