8.2 COntROL PanEL
Grant Solo fan convectors are supplied with a simple control
panel. Refer to Figure 1-3.
This allows each Solo unit to be individually set to suit the room or
area in which it is installed.
The functions of the buttons and indicator lights are as follows:
On/OFF bUttOn
When the ON/OFF button is pressed for at least 1 second it will
start the operation of the Grant Solo unit – provided that the water
flow temperature is at least 29°C AND the room air temperature
is low enough (i.e. below the air temperature setting of the Solo
unit). See section on ‘Temperature indicator lights’ below.
To stop the unit operating, press the ON/OFF button for at least 1
second.
tEmPERatURE inDiCatOR LiGHts
There are four temperature indicator lights that display the air
temperature setting of the Solo unit, and whether that temperature
setting has been achieved or not.
These indicate increasing temperature settings from the lowest on
the left to the highest on the right, as follows:
•
18°C – indicator light with single bar
•
20°C – indicator light with two bars
•
22°C – indicator light with three bars
•
24°C – indicator light with four bars
tO sEt tHE REqUiRED aiR tEmPERatURE
Press the ON/OFF button momentarily – the lowest (single bar)
indicator light will flash slowly indicating that the air temperature
setting is 18°C.
tO inCREasE tHE sEttinG
Press the ON/OFF button again momentarily – the next (two
bars) indicator light will now flash slowly indicating that the air
temperature setting is now 20°C.
Press the ON/OFF button again momentarily to increase the
setting further (if required) – the next (three bars) indicator light
will now flash slowly indicating that the air temperature setting is
now 22°C.
Press the ON/OFF button again momentarily (if required) and the
right hand (four bars) indicator light will now flash slowly indicating
that the air temperature setting is now at the maximum (24°C).
Pressing the ON/OFF button again momentarily will return the
air temperature setting to the minimum (18°C) and the left hand
(single bar) indicator light will now flash slowly.
The selected indicator light will continue to flash slowly whilst the
temperature is being raised. When the air temperature reaches
the setpoint, the indicator light will stop flashing and become
continuous. The Grant Solo unit will then stop heating until
needed again.
! nOtE !
it is nOt possible to adjust the temperature setting if the
water flow temperature is at less than 29°C.
aLaRm LiGHt
The Alarm light will flash if the water flow temperature is less than
29°C.
bOOst/COOL bUttOn
Press this button momentarily whilst the Solo unit is operating and
the normal Solo temperature control will be overridden for a period
of 20 minutes to provide a higher output than available in normal
operation.
The temperature indicator light will go off and the Alarm/Boost
light will come on to indicate the Solo unit is operating in the Boost
mode.
to stop the boost function
Press the Boost button momentarily at any time during the 20
minute boost period.
After 20 minutes have elapsed, the Solo unit will automatically
revert to the normal temperature control. The Alarm/Boost light will
go off and the temperature indicator light will revert to the original
setting.
Momentarily pressing the Boost button again will re-start the boost
function for another 20 minutes.
sUmmER COOLinG FUnCtiOn
In the summer Solo fan convectors can be used to provide air
movement to give passive cooling.
To use this function, press BOTH the ON/OFF and Boost buttons
at the same time for more than 1 second.
The water temperature control will be ignored and the fan will run
at the highest (boost) level for maximum air flow until the Solo unit
is switched off. The Alarm/Boost light will come on in this mode.
To switch off the summer cooling function, press BOTH the ON/
OFF and Boost buttons at the same time for more than 1 second.
! nOtE !
the summer cooling function will nOt automatically
switch off after a fixed period (as with the Boost function)
but will remain on until bOtH the On/OFF and boost
buttons are presses at the same time.
sPECiaL FUnCtiOn LiGHt
This light is not used and will not be lit during the operation of
the fan convector. This does NOT indicate a fault with the fan
convector.
Whilst it is not necessary for the Grant Solo fan convectors to be
regularly serviced, a limited amount of cleaning is required from
time to time.
Only use a moist cloth to clean the outer surfaces of the Solo fan
convectors. Do NOT use any abrasive cleaners, cleaning liquids
or aerosols.
9 CLEaninG
The warm air outlet grille on the top of the Solo Compact and Solo
CompactMAX and the front grille of the Solo Hideaway can be
vacuumed clean.
The air inlet filters on the Solo Hideaway (located either side of
the warm air outlet grille) are not removeable or replaceable. They
can be vacuum clean from the front.
