INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

2.1. Using the Heater
WARNING! Before switching the heater on always check that there isn’t anything on top of the heater or inside the given safety distance.
Start the heater by pressing the I/O button on the control panel.
When the heater starts, the top row of the display will show the set temperature and the bottom row will show the set on time for five seconds.
When the desired temperature has been reachedin the sauna room, the heating elements areautomatically turned off. To maintain the desiredtemperature, the control unit will automaticallyturn the heating elements on and off in periods.
The heater will turn off when the set on time runsout, the I/O button is pressed or an error occurs.
Changing the settings for remaining on time, presetting time and the desired sauna room temperatureis shown in figure 3. Changing the temperature unit(Fahrenheit/Celsius)  is shown in figure 3a.
2.2. Using Accessories
Lighting and ventilation can be started and shutdown separately from their own operating buttons.
2.2.1. Lighting
The lighting in the sauna room can be set up so thatit can be controlled from the control panel. (Max100 W.)
Switch the lights on/off by pressing the button on the control panel.
2.2.2. Ventilation
If there is a fan installed in the sauna room, it can be connected to the control unit and be controlled from the control panel.
Start/stop the fan by pressing the button on the control panel.

2.2.3. Safety switch
Safety switch refers to e.g. Harvia SFE, a safety device installed above or integrated to the heater, preventing the heater from heating should any object(e.g. towel, piece of clothing) drop or be placed on top of the heater and cause a fire hazard.
The switch is connected to the control unitaccording to their manuals. See also figures 6a,6b, 6c and 6d in this manual.
2.2.4 Remote switch
To remotely control the heater’s power input, the control unit can be equipped with an on/off remote switch (e.g. building automation). For more information, see section 2.3.
2.3. Remote control
According to the product standard IEC/EN 60335 -2-53 regulating electrical sauna heaters, a control unit can be used to remotely control the heater once the heater is equipped with a safety switch.
Using with a safety switch: the heater can be turned on remotely, if the safety switch circuit is closed. If the circuit is open, ”SAFE” is displayed
and the heater will not start.
Pause time: These features are limited by a pause time that prevents the heater from turning on if it has been less than 6 hours since the heater was last turned off. Trying to remotely turn the heater on during the pause time period (6 hours), text ”rESt” is displayed. The heater can be remotely started after the pause time has elapsed and ”rc” is displayed.
Memory for power failures: the control unit resumes operation, if the remote switch has remained in ON position.
Preset time: if the control unit is on preset delay time, it cannot be controlled with a remote switch. After the preset delay has passed and the heater is turned on, it can be turned off with a remote switch.
2.4. Control panel lock

| Press and hold the heater and light buttons for three seconds.

| -CL- is shown on the display. Panel lock can be activated only in standby mode. Panel lock also prevents remote start.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

The electrical connections of the control unit may only be made by an authorised, professional electrician and in accordance with the current regulations. When the installation of the control unit is complete, the person in charge of the installation must pass on to the user the Instructions for Installation and Use that come with the control unit and must give the user the necessary training for using the heater and the control unit.
3.1. Installing the Control Panel
The control panel is splash proof and has a small operating voltage. The panel can be installed in the washing or dressing room, or in the living quarters. If the panel is installed in the sauna room, it must

be at the minimum safety distance from the heater and at a maximum height of one metre from the floor. Figure 4.
Conductor tubing (ø 1”3/16, 30 mm) inside the wall structure allows you to thread the data cable hidden within the wall – otherwise the installation will have to be on the wall surface. We recommend you to install the control panel embedded in to the wall and far away from possible splashes.
3.2. Installing the Power Unit
Install the power unit to a wall outside the saunaroom, in a dry place with an ambient temperatureof >32 ºF (>0 ºC). See Figure 5 for instructions onhow to open the power unit cover and how to fix the unit to the wall.
Note! Do not embed the control unit into thewall, since this may cause excessive heating ofthe internal components of the unit and lead todamage. See Figure 5.
3.2.1. Electrical Connections
Figures 6a, 6b, 6c and 6d show the electrical connections of the power unit. Tables 2a, 2b, 2c and2d show the wire and fuse sizes. For more detailed installation instructions see The Instructions forInstallation and Use of the selected heater model.
3.2.2. Power Unit Fuse Faults
Replace a blown fuse by a new one with the same resistance. The placement of the fuses in the powerunit is shown in Figures 6a and 6b.

• If the fuse for the electronic unit has blown, there is likely a fault in the power unit and service is required.
• If the fuse in the line U1, U2 has blown, there is a problem with lighting or fan. Check the wiring and functioning of lighting and fan.
• If the fuse in the line A1, A2 has blown, there is a problem with the heater’s overheat protector circuit. In the heater, check the safety contactor, overheat protector and their wiring.

  Figure 6d. Electrical connections (CX170-U3-15)

3.3. Installing the Temperature Sensor Floor-mounted heaters (see Figure 7)

• Option 1: The temperature sensor is mounted on the wall above the heater, along the vertical centre line running parallel to the sides of the heater, at a distance of 3 15/16” (100 mm) from the ceiling.

• Option 2: The temperature sensor is mounted to the ceiling above the heater, at a distance of 7 14/16” (200 mm) from the vertical centre line of the heater’s side.
  Wall-mounted heaters (see Figure 8)

• The temperature sensor is wall-mounted above the heater, along the vertical centre line running parallel to the sides of the heater, at a distance of 3 15/16” (100 mm) from the ceiling.
  Do not install the temperature sensor closer than 3’-3 3/8” (1000 mm) to an air vent. The air flow near an air vent cools down the sensor, which gives inaccurate temperature readings to the control unit. As a result, the heater might overheat. See Figure 9.

3.4. Resetting the Overheat Protector
The sensor box contains a temperature sensor and an overheat protector. An NTC thermistor senses the temperature, and the resettable overheat protector cuts off the heater power in a case of malfunction, after which the protector can be reset. See Figure 10.
Note! The reason for the going off must be determined before the button is pressed.
