Energysaver® - Operation & Installation Manual
Pre-Heat
This function operates automatically in conjunction
with the Timers. When a Timer is selected, the
heater may operate anywhere within an hour prior
to the programmed starting time on the Timer.
This function is called Pre-heat since it ensures the
room reaches the desired temperature by the time
the Timer programs ON time. The room
temperature is sensed one hour before reaching
Timers programmed ON time.
The temperature differential at the time of sensing the room temperature combined with the data from
previous operation governs exactly how long before the programmed ON time the micro-computer will
operate the heater and ignite the burner.
Humidifier Tray
Your heater is fitted with an enamelled tray behind the air outlet so that you can humidify the air. To fill
the tray, open the door as shown in the diagram and pour water into the tray using the spout built into
the door.
The air wil be humidified as it passes over the water in the tray. DO NOT FILL THE TRAY WHILST THE
UNIT IS IN OPERATION. CLOSE THE DOOR AFTER FILLING.
These are very high efficiency appliances. During operation a small amount of water is produced in the
flue tubes. This drains into the enamel tray. It is quite normal for a small quantity of water to remain in
the bottom of the tray. If you are using the humidifier, it will need filling about once a day during the peak
heating season.
Vertical Louvre Adjustment
The warm air flow direction may be altered by inserting a screwdriver or similar tool and gently bending
the vertical louvre(s) either to the left or the right. NOTE: These louvres are not desgined to be adjusted
more than 6 times.

Outside Flue Terminal
On cold days steam may be discharged from the flue terminal. This is normal with high efficiency
appliances as such as the Energysaver® range and does not indicate any fault.
