3 Using your appliance 3.1 Operating mode selection Press the button repeatedly to select one of the five possible operating modes, each of which has its own green LED:

NOTE For your comfort, the LEDs and the display will switch off automatically if a button is not pressed for 30 seconds. This standby function does not affect the operation of your radiator, and pressing any button will reactivate the display.

FROST PROTECTION MODE Display: HG Your radiator maintains a non-modifiable minimum room temperature of 7°C to prevent any risk of frost. This mode is recommended when the room is unoccupied for periods longer than 24 hours.

ECO MODE Display: EC This is the “economy” mode, and it will produce a temperature approximately 3.5°C lower than COMFORT mode. This mode is recommended when the room is unoccupied for periods longer than 2 hours. Example: if your radiator is set to 20°C in COMFORT mode, the ECO mode setpoint temperature will be 16.5°C.

COMFORT MODE EN Display: Setpoint temperature

This is your radiator’s normal operating mode. You can select your desired room temperature using the temperature change buttons. This mode is recommended when the room is occupied. The temperature can be set to between 7 and 28°C.

AUTO MODE Display: Setpoint temperature

In this mode your radiator receives operating mode instructions remotely from a Pilot Wire unit (not supplied).

NO HEAT The radiator does not heat.

3.2 Operating your appliance without a programming base unit Press the and

button repeatedly until COMFORT mode is selected and use the buttons to set the desired temperature.

If this setpoint temperature is higher than the room temperature measured by your appliance, your radiator will start to heat.

Press the button repeatedly until the required operating mode is selected.

3.3 Operating your appliance with a Pilot Wire programming base unit (not supplied) – Auto mode

EN The programming base unit sends operating mode commands (No Heat, Frost Protection, Eco, Comfort) to your radiator via the Pilot Wire in your wiring system. It can also switch your radiator to one of two supplementary modes (Comfort -1°C and Comfort -2°C). First set your required Comfort mode setpoint temperature using the buttons. Press the

button repeatedly until AUTO mode is selected.

Then consult the instructions supplied with your Pilot Wire unit for information on operating your radiator via Pilot Wire.

3.4 “Open window” detection Your radiator can detect a significant fall in temperature such as that produced by leaving a window open for a prolonged period in winter. It automatically adjusts its operation to save energy. When this happens, the “open window detection” LED illuminates. When the temperature in your room stabilises, the radiator resumes normal operation and the LED goes out.

4 Advice and recommendations GETTING TO KNOW AND GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR RADIATOR This electrical appliance with circulating fluid is delivered ready to use. It is plugged and filled with a high-performance thermal mineral oil before leaving the factory.This fluid was specially designed for this use and requires no special maintenance. As soon as the appliance is switched on, you will notice certain differences compared to a standard electric heating system: - the electric heating element heats the fluid, which gradually and naturally starts circulating in your appliance, - the properties of the fluid are such that it takes at least ten minutes for the radiator to reach its optimum surface temperature, depending on the model and the room temperature when the appliance is switched on, - this principle also ensures consistent and sustained heating even when the element is no longer powered.

EN TAKING CARE OF YOUR RADIATOR Before carrying out any maintenance operation on your appliance, ensure that it is switched off. High-quality materials and surface treatment protect your radiator against corrosion and impacts. To maximise the service life of your appliance, we recommend that you do not use abrasive or corrosive materials to clean it. Use warm soapy water and a dry cloth instead.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF YOUR ELECTRIC RADIATOR ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS When disposing of the heating appliance, comply with the regulations in force on the disposal of oil.

It must be taken to a suitable collection point to be recycled. By disposing of this product correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.

5 In case of fault The display opposite indicates that a fault has been detected and action is required to remedy it. If your appliance stops working, check that: - your radiator is properly connected to an appropriate power supply, - the radiator is not set to No Heat mode, - the setpoint temperature is higher than the current room temperature and that this causes the radiator to heat, - your appliance responds when an open window is detected. The fall in temperature produced when you air your room may not be sufficient to trigger this function. In this case, your radiator will continue to operate normally.

EN IMPORTANT If the power cable from the electrical connection box is damaged, for safety reasons it must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s after-sales service department or a similarly qualified person.
