What does the dryer mode with timer do?

Troubleshooting

Towel rail not heating

Check that the power supply is switched on at the mains and that the heating element is correctly plugged in (if applicable). Verify that the thermostat is set to an active temperature and the timer is not preventing operation.

Error code on thermostat

Refer to the separate heating element manual for specific error code meanings. Often, this indicates a fault or a need for reset. Contact customer support if the issue persists.

Device is making a noise

A slight 'gurgling' or 'hissing' sound can be normal as the fluid inside the element heats and expands. If the noise is loud or persistent, contact customer support.

White finish appears dull

Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure all soap residue is wiped away. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires a qualified electrician due to the electric heating element. The unit comes with wall fixings and a cable cover to ensure a secure and aesthetically pleasing installation. Ensure the chosen location is suitable for electrical work and mounting.

Compatibility: This is an electric-only heated towel rail and does not connect to your central heating system. It requires a standard electrical power source. The IP64 rating means it is protected against dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for bathroom zones where moisture is present, but professional installation should adhere to relevant electrical safety standards.

Care: Clean the towel rail regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the powder-coated finish. Ensure the heating element is cool and switched off before cleaning. Periodically check that the wall fixings remain secure.
