Fitting Instructions for type 3 assembly (above)

Please read all these instructions to the end carefully before beginning installation.

1. Identify which type of hot surface igniter is inside your appliance (see igniter types table).

2. Unplug your existing igniter, retaining all fittings, and match it up with diagrams above (this can also be done by comparing the top end view of the base type).

3. Compare the position of the ridge on your existing igniter carefully to the top view diagram. Ensure that you have the correct igniter type. Take your time to identify this carefully.

4. Referring to the centre bottom diagram, break off the tabs A and B, preferably with thin nose pliers.

5. Cut off the plug from your appliance, as close to the plug as possible. Make sure there is enough lead to work with. Bare one quarter of an inch of wire.

6. Fit the universal adaptor to the appliance using existing screws. Once the universal adaptor is fitted, screw the igniter into the adaptor, as per the final diagram, using the screw provided.

7. Attach the wires from the appliance onto the igniter, by twisting the bared ends together, matching one wire from the igniter, to one wire from the controller (please refer to diagram).

8. Finally, take the terminal caps provided and screw down tight over the joined bare wires, ensuring that no bare wires are showing. If necessary, the igniter wires can be cut to length.

9.Check installation is secure and safe, routing leads away from the burner.


Commissioning
