INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
for KING European Convector “KCE Series”
HEATER INSTALLATION
1. Secure wall bracket to the wall. Make sure to respect
spacings (Fig. 1). KCEH2405 bracket must be attached
to wall at the top right corner.
2. Bring electric wires to the center of the heater, the center
of the bracket or directly under the junction box
(Fig. 1, item A).
3. Remove wire holder from the junction box. Make
connections according to local and national codes.
Reinstall wire holder making sure that it is attached
properly.
4. Install convector on its bracket. First, place bottom of the
heater into the bracket hooks. Then, simply pivot the
heater toward the wall.
5. Secure heater with two (2) screws located on top of heater
(Fig. 2, item B). This way, ground link is made.
** In some applications, the top of the heater is not
reachable. Repeat operations 1 to 3 then, remove front
of heater, top and bottom grille. Secure heater to vertical
part of wall bracket using two (2) screws.
HEATER OPERATION
Please refer to thermostat guide supplied.
IMPORTANT
- Heater and its wall bracket must be installed on the surface
of the wall (recess mounting cannot be done).
- Allow 20 in. (508 mm) minimum clearance from the front
and the top of the heater.
- Allow 2 in. (50 mm) minimum clearance below heater.
- We recommend to keep a distance of 39 1/2 in. (1004 mm)
minimum from the bathtub according to local and national
codes.
MAINTENANCE
It is obvious that, when there is accumulation of dust inside
the heater, its effi ciency will be affected. We therefore
recommend to clean the heater once a year. To facilitate the
cleaning, the heater can easily be unhooked from the wall
bracket. Heater front cover can be taken out by removing
screws at the bottom to facilitate cleaning. Caution, remove
power supply before opening the front cover.
You may also use a vacuum cleaner on the inlet and outlet
grille to remove dust.

- This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let
bare skin touch hot surfaces. Keep combustible
materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers,
clothes, and curtains at least 20 in. (508 mm) from the
front and the top of the heater.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any
ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric

- This heater includes a visual alarm to warn that parts of
the heater are getting excessively hot. If the light turns on,
immediately turn the heater off and inspect for any objects
on or adjacent to the heater that may cause high
temperatures. DO NOT OPERATE THE HEATER WITH

NOTICE
- Used for the fi rst time, the heater can produce light smoke
(odour). This is normal and will stop very shortly.
- When the heater is used in a dusty or smoky environment,
some parts may turn yellow. To alleviate the problem (when
dust and smoke cannot be avoided), we suggest to regularly
clean those parts.

infi ltration present on an outside wall to infl uence the

(doors, windows, patio doors).
