the desired level. This mode optimises energy use by calculating the most
efficient and effective way to achieve the desired temperature setting. The
desired room temperature can be adjusted at any time during operation by
pressing the appropriate key.
Standby Mode
With the heater ON if the ‘ ’ button is pressed, the heater will go into standby
mode, the heater switches off, the display goes blank and the neon will switch
off. On pressing the ‘ ’ button again the heater will come on in the with the
desired room temperature settings it had prior to going into standby mode.
LCD Display
The LCD display shows the desired room temperature. When the appliance
is set to frost protection mode (5°C) the frost protection symbol ‘ ’ will be
displayed on the screen.
The colour of the display backlight will vary depending on the desired
temperature set (see notes above under ‘Setting the desired room
temperature’). The backlight will switch off a short period after the last key
press. Any additional key presses will re-illuminate the screen.
Indicator Neon
The control contains an indicator neon. This neon comes on to indicate when
the product is in ‘control mode’. This neon does not indicate if the heat is on,
if the room temperature is at the desired temperature then the heat will be
off but the control is still operating, the neon will remain on.
When the delayed start function is activated the neon will blink intermittently
to indicate the product is in delayed start mode. Once the delayed start period
has elapsed the neon will switch on to indicate the product is in control mode.
Frost Protection Mode
The appliance has a frost protection mode. This setting is useful in areas such
as garages to assist in the prevention of frost damage. If the thermostat is set
to its minimum setting ‘5°C’, the heater will cycle ON and OFF to maintain a
temperature of approximately 5°C and help protect against frost conditions.
The frost protection symbol ‘ ’ will be displayed on the LCD display when
frost protection mode is activated.
Runback Timer Mode
When the appliance is in Control mode and the ‘ ’ and ‘ ’ buttons are
simultaneously pressed for more than 2 seconds the appliance shall enter a
‘Runback’ configuration menu.
The ‘Runback’ mode will allow the appliance to run, from now, for a pre-set
time. After this time has expired the appliance shall enter Standby mode and
the Runback timer shall clear to zero (no subsequent Runback). Keeping the
buttons pressed the display will indicate the number of hours the Run Back
time shall be enabled, from 1 through to 12. Fig. 6 below shows an example of
a two hour Runback. After 12 the timer shall roll over to 1 and then increment
through to 12 again. The time shall increment for every 2 seconds that the
buttons are simultaneously pressed. When one or both buttons are released
it shall be assumed that the Run Back time has been selected. Both buttons
must be released before any other button operations are allowed. The Run
Back function shall not be maintained if mains power is removed and reapplied.
The Runback function shall use the maximum power as defined using the ‘
’ button sequence and the Set Point active prior to entering Run Back mode.
The temperature Set Point may be changed by pressing the ‘ ’ or ‘ ’ buttons
while in Run Back Mode. The display shall flash On and Off every 5 seconds
showing the hours remaining in Runback mode, until the Runback time has
expired, then the display shall be turned off (appliance enters Standby Mode).
Please note only hours will be displayed not part of hours i.e. minutes
Delayed Start Mode
When the appliance is in Control mode and the ‘ ’ and ‘ ’ buttons are
simultaneously pressed for more than 2 seconds the appliance shall enter a
‘Delayed Start’ configuration menu.
The ‘Delayed Start’ mode will allow the appliance to turn ON after a pre-set
time. After this time has expired the appliance will turn ON and control about
the set point. The appliance shall stay ON until the mains power is toggled
or the ‘ ’ button is pressed to place the unit in Standby.
Keeping the buttons pressed the display will indicate the number of hours
the Start Timer shall delay the appliance entering operation, from 1 through
to 12. After 12 the timer shall roll over to 1 and then increment through to
12 again. The time shall increment for every 2 seconds that the buttons are
simultaneously pressed. When one or both buttons are released it shall be
assumed that the Delayed Start time has been selected. Both buttons must
be released before any other button operations are allowed.
To indicate that the Delayed Start Timer function has been enabled the Neon
shall blink intermittently once every 10 seconds.
The Delayed Start time shall be cleared to zero when the ‘ ’ button is pressed,
the Delayed Start timer expires or if mains power is removed. The LCD display
will display the Hours remaining in Delayed Start mode (No Backlight) and
displays hours only increments (not minutes). Once the delayed start time
has expired the appliance enters control mode, and the display will now
show the Set Point.
The Delayed Start function shall not be maintained if mains power is removed
and reapplied. The Delayed Start function shall use the maximum power
as defined using the ‘ ’ button sequence and the Set Point active prior to
entering Delayed Start mode.
Power Select Mode
It is possible to alter the power output of the appliance. Doing this limits
the power output of the appliance, there are two alternative power modes
available, mid heat (1400W) and low heat (600W). To change the power mode
setting it is necessary to do the following:
1. The product must be first switched off and then switched on, this can
be done by plugging in the appliance - see
Fig. 4
or by switching it on
at an isolator switch. At the same time press and hold the ‘ ’ key for
at least 2 seconds after main power is applied.
2. After power up ‘2’ will appear on the LCD display and the standby key
can be released. ‘2’ indicates that the appliance is in mid heat mode.
3. In order to select low level heat setting press the ‘ ’ key within 5
seconds. The Display on the LCD should change to ‘1’.
4. Once the desired heat setting is reached do not press any other keys.
After a short period the LCD will switch off and the appliance will revert
to standby mode.
5. Pressing the ‘ ’ button again will turn on the display and the
appliance will be in control mode. The display will toggle between the
set temperature and the power mode setting, for example between
25°C and ‘2’
6. In order to revert to the default Eco mode, simply switch off the power at
the wall or unplug the appliance. On the next operation (when plugged
in) it will automatically revert to Eco mode.
Safety in use
This appliance incorporates a number of safety devices. In addition to the
‘Important Safety Advice’
section your attention is drawn to the following;
Tilt Switch
The tilt switch will prevent the heater from working if it is accidentally tipped
over on its side. If the radiator is tipped over while it is hot, disconnect the
power and allow it to cool, then stand the radiator back upright. Reconnect
the power - normal operation should be resumed.
Safety Overheat Protection
For your safety this appliance is fitted with a thermal cut-out. In the event
that the product overheats for some reason, the cut-out prevents excessive
temperatures on the product by cutting the power to the heater. Once the
heater has cooled down, it will reset automatically, it will continue to cycle on
and off automatically until the reason for overheating is removed.
Storage
If the heater is not required for long periods, for example during the summer,
it should be stored in a dry place and preferably covered to prevent the
accumulation of dirt and dust. The supply cord should be neatly
coiled around
the cable wrap and the plug stored in the cable wrap moulding.
Cleaning
WARNING - ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE
CLEANING THE HEATER.
Do not use detergents, abrasive cleaning powder or polish of any kind on
the body of the heater.
Allow the heater to cool, then wipe with a dry cloth to remove dust
and a damp cloth (not wet) to clean off stains. Be careful not to allow
moisture in to the heater.
