- Use the arrow keys to select to the desired runback time. Press ENTER to confirm and move onto Runback temperature settings.

- Use the arrow keys to select the desired Runback temperature. Press ENTER to activate the Runback timer and return to the home screen.

NOTE:

When activated the temperature set-point which has been set during the mode setup (above) will be active. This value can be adjusted temporarily during runback mode operation by using the arrow keys.

Setback Settings

Setback is a function that only modifies Timer Mode operation. When Setback is enabled it overrides any Heating Off period to maintain a constant temperature during Heating Off periods.

This can be used to prevent the room temperature from falling below a minimum value while there is no demand for heat (Heating On).

To activate and setup setback mode:

• Hold the ADV and MENU buttons for 2 seconds.
• Use the arrow keys to highlight 'Sb' and confirm using the ENTER key
• Use the arrow keys to select Setback ON or OFF.
• Selecting OFF will return you to the home screen with Setback deactivated.

- If 'ON' icon is selected, you will be required to set a Setback temperature.

- Use the arrow keys to select the desired setback temperature. Press ENTER to confirm and return to the home screen. Setback mode will be active

Adaptive Start

Adaptive Start is a predictive function that only modifies Timer Mode operation. This function models the heating characteristics of the room and uses that information to pre-heat the room to ensure the target temperature has been reached by the start of the Heating On period.

For example, with Adaptive Start off, the Heating On time is the time that the Heater will begin to try and achieve the Target Temperature. With Adaptive Start On, the Heater will begin to heat the room before the User-defined Heating On time so that the Target Temperature is achieved when the User defined the Heating On start time.

To activate Adaptive Start:

• Hold ADV and MENU buttons for 2 seconds
• Use the arrow keys to highlight the adaptive start icon and confirm using the ENTER key
• Use the arrow keys to toggle Adaptive Start ON or OFF
• Press ENTER to confirm your option and return to the home screen. If adaptive start has been activated, the icon will be visible when in timer mode home screen.

NOTE:

This is a continuously learning function and will be affected daily by changes in the heater's environment. The heater will take into account the starting temperature of the room so pre-heating should remain accurate.

NOTE:

It is important that if multiple heaters are installed in one room that all heaters have the Adaptive Start (AS) function enabled. If this is not the case, heaters with AS enabled will pre-heat the room to the desired target temperature before the heaters with AS disabled attempt to output heat.

It is likely that if multiple heaters are required in one room, that the output from one heater may not be sufficient to heat the room alone. This may cause the pre-heat time calculation to extend to a large degree if the heaters do not all have AS enabled. This may lead to heat at unwanted times and excessive wear to some heaters.

A two-hour limit is enforced on the calculation, however, if all heaters have AS enabled and pre-heating takes over one-hour, extreme environmental factors may be affecting the calculation or the heaters may be under sized for the room. Please contact us for support if your pre-heat time seems excessive.

PIN Lock

This locking method utilises a PIN code that is set by the User. When activated, the appliance is locked in the previously active mode and user will be restricted to basic functions. In order to change the mode or settings the PIN code must be re entered.

It is important that all required parameters such as time profiles and/or temperatures are set and the desired mode is activated before applying the PIN lock.

The following table summarises the product function after PIN lock has been applied

Active mode Function after PIN lock is applied
Timer mode	All functionality will be disabled, the appliance will continue to follow the pre-set time and temperature profiles. Advance function is not available
Comfort On	All functionality will be disabled, the appliance will continue to control to the pre-set comfort on temperature. Runback mode is not available
Frost protect	All functionality will be disabled, the appliance will continue to provide frost protection. Runback mode is not available
Comfort Off	All functionality will be disabled, the appliance will remain in Comfort off mode with no heat or temperature control. Runback mode (if active) can be initiated using the ADV key.

To activate PIN Lock:

• First ensure the appliance is in the desired mode of operation, continuous heat or user timer, ensure the desired temperature or time profiles are set and any desired advanced modes are enabled.
• Hold ADV and MENU buttons for 2 seconds
• Use the arrow keys to highlight the Pin Lock symbol and confirm using the ENTER key.
• Use the arrow keys to select the first digit. Press ENTER to set the next digit. Repeat until all four digits have been set. Press ENTER to return to the Home screen with the device PIN locked.

NOTE:

Once the PIN has been set you will be required to re-enter the PIN if any button is pressed. The only exception is when the criteria has been met to allow runback mode using the ADV key.

Exiting PIN Lock mode

• Press any button to enter the PIN display
