General
Your Dimplex permanently oil-filled electric towel rail has been designed
to provide an all-the-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 brass plated
or chromium plated or stove-enamel finish. The stove-enamelled rails
have loadings of 120 watts, 175 watts and 200 watts, but as a plated
finish tends to hold in the heat, plated rails have been down-loaded to
60 Watts, 90 watts and 120 watts respectively to maintain the same
surface temperature.
All models are splash proof.
Use
Your Dimplex oil-filled electric 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 finish.
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.

Installation and Operating Instructions
brackets. The towel rail must be mounted so that the top rail is horizontal
and at least 50mm below any overhanging surface - see Fig. 1.
Feet
The feet of Dimplex oil filled towel rails should be clamped around the
bottom horizontal tube as shown in Fig. 2. Before finally tightening the
bolts, the feet should be pushed snugly into the angle formed by the
main frame tube and the bottom horizontal tube. There are two screw
holes in each foot through which the towel rail can be permanently
screwed to the floor.
Wall mounting
The Wall mounting accessory pack (see Fig. 3) contains:
(a)
4 mounting straps
(b)
4 screws (M4 x 10)
(c)
4 wall mounting brackets
(d)
4 locator pins
Procedure for fixing Wall Brackets
Step 1
Using Dim. X and Dim. Y as a guide for the wall bracket fixing dimensions
- see Fig. 4, mark the hole positions for the four fixing brackets and drill
and plug the wall to suit.
Note: Allow enough room above and below for the clearance stated.
Screw the four fixing brackets securely to the wall - see Fig. 4.
Step 2
Place carefully around the upright bars the 4 mounting straps at the
position shown - see Fig. 4. (Note the straps must be positioned up
tight to the cross bar as indicated) Securely fix them by screwing in
place fully the M4 x 10mm screw. Ensure the brackets are fitted with the
rear of the straps facing directly backwards.
Step 3
Place the towel rail straps into the wall mounted brackets, secure them
with the locater pins by inserting it and giving it a quarter turn - see Fig.
3. Check the four brackets and towel rail are fitting horizontal. If not go
back to step 2. The straps can be repositioned to ensure that the towel
rail is horizontal when fitted to your wall. If the towel rail cross rails are
not level, loosen both straps on either left or right hand upright bar.
Lower the two straps and raise up the towel rail until it is horizontal, then
secure as indicated in step 2 and 3.
Cleaning
The finish on your towel rail can be maintained by occasionally wiping
over with a damp cloth and lightly finishing with a soft dry cloth. This
