Important
• Remove the plug from the socket before draining the mattress.
• Do not pull the cables. If they are damaged the heating system must be discarded.
• Install the control box with the temperature setting away from the water mattress, e.g. on
the base of the water bed, since the box is not watertight.
• The Akva Vital heating system must only be used as a unity.
Operating procedure
• Connect the heating system to 230 – 240 V ~.
• Set the control knob to the desired temperature. Note that it takes 1 – 2 days to heat a
cold bed. Then the temperature can be fine-tuned. Remember that the temperature has
not been reached until the indicator lights up green.
• The regulator operates with 11 steps and a regulating accuracy of less than +/- 0.25° C.
A red light in the indicator means that the temperature is being increased, and a green
light indicates that the temperature set has been reached i.e. the heating is being
discontinued or kept at a constant level.
The indicator lamp in the control box of the heating system therefore shifts during normal
operation between green and red. The heating system measures repeatedly every 5 seconds.
This is also the response time for variations in settings, status changes, etc.
12-hour operation –
After the mattress has heated up, the heating element can be changed to 12-hour operation. If
the heating element is switched off when the bed is being used, proceed as follows:
• Turn the setting knob down to [sun/moon] for 5 seconds. The indicator will light up
yellow to confirm.
• Turn the setting knob back to the desired temperature.
The heating system will now be switched off for 12 hours, after which it will heat for 12 hours,
then switch off again for 12 hours and so on.
The indicator lamp in the control box of the heating system shifts between green and yellow
If you want to interrupt 12-hour operation, proceed as follows:
• Switch off the power to the heating system for a short time, or turn the setting knob
down to [sun/moon] for 5 seconds.
After power interruptions the heating system will restart in standard 24-hour operation.
Status indication
The light in the setting knob indicates the status of the heating system or any error conditions
according to the diagram below. If the light in the setting knob flashes one colour rhythmically, it
means that there is a fault in the heating system. See bottom line in the diagram below.
The heating system is designed for use in an earthed installation. If this is no such socket, or if
the earthing is inadequate, a tickling sensation can be felt when touching the mattress. Contact
the local installer. The energy consumption of a water bed depends on the heat loss of the
mattress. This means that the temperature of the water bed and daily making of the bed have a
high influence on the energy consumption of the heating system. If care is exercised, the energy
consumption of a heating system for a dual low energy bed can be reduced to approx. 150
kWh/year. If the entire bed is heated by one heating system, the consumption will be twice of
the above. If the heating system is installed in a hardside bed, twice the energy consumption of
the low energy bed should be expected.
