2.2. Commissioning
An easy installation wizard is programmed in Ecombi Solar electronic control. Follow the start wizard instructions when turning
your Ecombi Solar on for the first time or after resetting it to the factory settings.
START WIZARD - INITIAL SETTINGS.
The Ecombi Solar electronic control will guide you through the commissioning of the unit. The steps to follow are:
a. Select language. Confirm the language in the storage heater electronic control.
b. Date & Time. Check and confirm that the default date & time in the unit is correct. If not, please change it.
c. Charging periods. 2 different charging periods can be set in Ecombi Solar. Set Charging Periods 1 & 2 according to your
electricity low tariff hours.
By default, Ecombi Solar is set to an 8 hours charging period, from 00:00 to 08:00 hours. If this charging time matches your
electricity low tariff hours, you do not need to make any changes in the unit configuration. Otherwise, you can change charging
Periods 1 and 2 to match your electricity tariff.
If your electricity tariff is 14 hours off-peak, you must modify the charging configuration in the advance settings menu and select
14 hours nominal charging period.
d. Temperature setting. This is the last step of the start wizard. Select and confirm the room set temperature of your choice.
With the help of the start wizard, you will set you Ecombi Solar storage heater for an autonomous operation. It will charge and
store the heat during the charging hours set in c.Charging Periods and it will adjust the charge level and consumption according to
the set temperature of your choice.
An incorrect time, charging periods or set temperatures configuration, might result in a high cost of the electricity bill.
