ALTERING THE TEMPERATURE WHILST IN PROGRAM MODE

The temperature for COMFORT and ECO can be altered during the weekly programmes.

The radiator can detect a window open when the temperature decreases quickly.

This function can be enabled or disabled.

Window Opening and Closure detection

Window opening detection allows you to make energy savings in case you open the window to refresh the ambient air and forget to select STANDBY mode by pressing the PROGRAM button (time shown on display).

The controller checks the ambient temperature in the room and automatically selects STANDBY mode if an abnormal temperature drop is detected (temperature drop down between 1,5°C and 2.0°C in less than 14 minutes).

When the controller detects a “window open” the backlight and the window icon blinks.

The controller automatically selects STANDBY mode (time shown on display) to make the energy saving. The

time is displayed on the LCD. This function reduces the detection sensibility for 3 hours after power on or after

lowering the temperature setpoint, in order to have a stabilised temperature in the room.

6 Window opening function enable/disable

The temperature can be

altered whilst in any

program. Use the + or –

buttons to increase or

decrease. The change in set

temperature will be seen on

the display.
