With the functions, you can read information, and set
desired temperatures, periods and basic settings.

With the operating modes, you select whether the
heating installation should be operated in automatic or
manual mode.

With the advanced functions, you can change the active
operating mode for the heating circuit and hot water
generation in special situations quickly and with time
restrictions.

Settings

5.2.1

Setting desired temperatures

This function is used to set the desired temperatures for
«HEATING 1» and hot water generation.

5.2.1.1 Heating circuit

Caution!
Risk of damage due to frost.

If rooms are not adequately heated, this

may cause damage to the building and to

the heating installation.

If you are absent during a frosty spell,

ensure that the heating installation re-

mains in operation and provides ad-

equate frost protection.

«Menu»

«Desired temperatures»

«HEATING 1»

You can set two different desired temperatures for the
heating circuit.

The desired «day temperature» is the temperature you
wish to have in the rooms during the day or when you
are at home (Comfort mode).

The desired «night temperature» is the temperature that
you wish to have in the rooms during the night or when
you are away from home (Set-back mode).

5.2.1.2 Hot water generation

Danger!
Risk of being scalded by hot water.

There is a danger of scalding at the hot

water draw-off points if the temperatures

are greater than 60 °C. Young children

and elderly persons are particularly at risk,

even at lower temperatures.

Select the temperature so that nobody is

at risk.

«Menu»

«Desired temperatures»

«Domestic hot wa-

ter»

You can only use the controller's functions and setting
options for hot water generation if a domestic hot water
cylinder is connected to the heating installation.

You can set the desired «Hot water circuit» temperature
for the hot water circuit.
