J
/I switch (stop/0).
J
Temperature adjustment control knob. V1
J
Heating indicator light
2) Fixing the comfort temperature
The comfort temperature is the temperature that you would like while the room is occupied.
a) Put the switch to (marche/I).
b) Mechanical : set the control knob to between 4 and 5.
Electronical : set the control knob on 5, the heating indicator V1 comes on if the room temperature is below the required
temperature.
c) Wait a few hours for the temperature to stabilise.
d) If the setting is satisfactory (if necessary use a thermometer to check), mark the position for future use.
e) If the setting is not satisfactory, adjust it and start again from point
c .
3) Fixing the Eco temperature : (electronic model)
This is the required temperature during periods when the room is unoccupied. It is recommended that this mode should be
used if the room is unoccupied for more than 2 hours.
a) Set the cursor
switch knob to
.
b) Adjust the control knob between 3 and 4, the heating light V1 comes on, if the ambient temperature is lower than the
instruction of desired Eco temperature.
c) Wait a few hours until the temperature stabilizes.
d) If the setting is satisfactory (if necessary use a thermometer to check), mark the position.
If the setting is not satisfactory, adjust it and start again from point
c .
Note : When switching n°1 ( on the picture ) is set on Programming system (clock symbol) with the PassProgram On/Off,
please refer to paragraph n°8.
4) Frost-Free mode
This mode is used to keep the temperature at approximately 7°C in the room when you are absent from the house for a
prolonged period (i.e. more than 24 hours).
a) Leave the
switch on I, set the control knob to (mecanical model).
b) Set the switch on (electronic model).
5) The heating indicator : V1 (electronic model)
This light comes on when the heating element is working. It may ash when the temperature has stabilised.
6) Locking the controls : and
It is possible to lock or limit use of the control knob and lock the switch to prevent unauthorised manipulation of the
panel heater (children, etc.).
a) Unhook the panel heater from its wall mounting
b) Remove the slugs
P on the back of the thermostat from their mountings.
c) Select position B to lock the control knob or position L to limit the amount it can be turned. Position M blocks the switch
for Electronic Model.
7) Using the pilote wire
The product with pilote wire can receive the following signals from a master unit :
- comfort (temperature of (2) control knob)
- eco (comfort temperature -3°C to -4°C)
- frost free (approximately 7°C)
- off.
Put the switch (1) to the programming mode (clock symbol).
The product must be connected through the pilote wire to a programming control or a product equiped with pass
program system in order to use these different modes. You can control several convectors with a single programmer or a pro-
duct equiped with pass program system.
Warning : The control unit will consider frost free and off signals in any switch selection.
8) Using the on/off pass program system ref. 602019
When using programming mode (clock symbol) with the on/off pass program system (int timer), the moon symbol on
the timer refers to the off mode (no heating).
Warning : the control unit will consider the off signal in any switch selection.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
- There is no point in setting maximum heating, the room temperature will not rise any quicker.
- When you air the room, disconnect the panel heater by putting the
switch to /0.
- If you leave for several hours, remember to reduce the temperature.
Absence for :
less than 2 hours,
do not touch the controls.
2 to 24 hours , lower the control knob by two graduations, set the cursor switch knob to .
more than 24 hours or in the summer , put the control knob to (mecanical),
the on (electronic).
- If you have several units in a room, let them operate simultaneously. This will give you a more uniform temperature
without increasing electricity consumption.
