The heater can operate in manual and programmable mode. Manual mode is one in which the desired mode (comfort, economy or free frost) is set and the heater constantly works in this mode. In the case of the programmable mode, you can arrange the heater’s operation program separately for each day of the week, assigning each hour a selected mode (comfort or economy). In the programmable mode, it is not possible to assign the frost free mode.
Comfort mode
The default temperature in comfort mode is 19°C.
Economy mode
In the economy mode, it is possible to set the temperature lower than or equal
to the temperature in the comfort mode. By default, the temperature in economy
mode is 15.5°C.
Anti-Frost mode
In this mode, the device will turn on when the temperature is below 7°C and
turn off when the temperature is above 7°C. In the case of anti-frost mode, it
is not possible to set the temperature.
Switching between modes is possible with the V button. It allows you to select the comfort, economy, anti-frost mode in manual mode or switch to the programmable mode. The mode in which the heater is currently operating is indicated by the icon at the top of the display. The temperature is set using the + or – buttons. The temperature in the comfort and economy modes can be set in the range of 7 ° C … 30 ° C. To change the temperature in a given mode, it must be done during the heater operation in this mode.
Time setting
When using for the first time, a long period of non-use, or a power outage,
you will need to set the time and day of the week. Time and day of the week
settings can only be made when the programmable mode icon is shown on the
display. If it is not there, switch the mode with the V button until the
programmable mode icon appears.
To start setting the time and day, press and hold the V button for 3 seconds
until the first two digits flash on the display. Use the + and – buttons to
set the hour from 0 to 23. After 30 seconds of inactivity, it will
automatically go to the minutes setting. Press the V button to enter the
minute setting. As with the hours, you can set the minutes with the + and –
buttons. After 30 seconds of inactivity, it will automatically go to the day
of the week settings. Press the V button to enter the day of the week setting.
As with the hours and minutes, you can set it using the + and – buttons. The
numbers on the display correspond to the day of the week: 1 = MONDAY, 2 =
TUESDAY, 3 = WEDNESDAY, 4 = THURSDAY, 5 = FRIDAY, 6 = SATURDAY, 7 = SUNDAY.
After setting the current day of the week, press V to confirm. You will then
go to the programmable mode settings. If you do not confirm the day of the
week with the V button for 30 seconds, the time settings will be saved
automatically and you will go to the programmable mode settings. The
programming process is described in the further part of the manual. If you do
not want to program the heater, keep pressing the V button until you return to
the home screen.
Weekly programming – setting
A suitable program can be assigned to each day of the week. Same as 1 (next to
the hour and minutes) for Monday, 2 for Tuesday, 3 for Wednesday, etc., then
P1 is the program for Monday, P2 for Tuesday, P3 for Wednesday, etc. until P7
is the program for Sunday. Depending on your needs, you can leave the default
programs set (as below) or set any program for each day of the week, in which
the appropriate mode (comfort or economy) will be assigned to each hour. The
comfort mode on the display is presented as a rectangle above the time to
which it has been assigned. Economy mode, on the other hand is presented as
lack of this symbol.
Default programs P1-P7
When the heater is started for the first time, and after each factory reset,
the program for each day of the week is the same and is as follows:
Comfort mode 5:00 – 23:59 (except the stated hours, it works in economy mode)
Setting programs P1 – P7 according to your preferences
Programmable mode settings can only be made when the programmable icon is
shown on the display. If it is not there, switch the mode with the V button
until the programmable mode icon appears. Press and hold the V button for 5
seconds. You will go to the time settings described earlier. If you want to
set them, follow the previously described procedure. Note that for the
programmable mode to work properly, it is necessary to set the current time
and day of the week. If you have set the time and day of the week in advance
and they do not need to be changed, press the V button until you enter the
programmable mode setting. This will be evidenced by the displayed symbol P1.
Go to the program settings for Monday or select the day you want to program by
pressing the V button. If you want to program the heater for Tuesday, press
the V button until the display shows the program corresponding to Tuesday,

hours, press the V button to confirm the selection and V again to advance to
the programming of the next day. After 30 seconds of inactivity, it will

It is used to correct the temperature reading when it is incorrect. In the
settings menu at the F0 item, use the + and – buttons to set the calibration.
The setting range is 5°C to -5°C (every 1°C). The default calibration value is
-2°C. Press the V button to save the settings and move to the next menu item.
Open window detection function (F1)
If the room temperature drops by 5°C within five minutes, the heater will
operate at a temperature setting of 10°C for a period of time. This time is
selected by the user. It can be 60 or 90 minutes. After the set time has
elapsed, the heater will return to the operating mode that was active before
the open window detection function started. In the settings menu, press V
until (F1) appears on the display. Use the + and – buttons to select the time
(0, 60 and 90 minutes) after which the heater should return to the active
operating mode before the open window detection function is activated. Setting
the value to 0 deactivates the function. The default value is 0. Press the V
button to save the settings and go to the next menu item.
Anti-Scald function (F2)
If the surface of the heater reaches the temperature assigned to the anti-
scald function, heating will be stopped until the temperature of the surface
of the heater drops. Press the + button to increase or – to decrease the
temperature assigned to the anti-scald function. You can choose from the
following temperature settings: 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60°C. Setting the oF value
disables the function. oF is the default value. Press the V button to save the
settings and move to the next menu item.
When the open window detection function and the anti-scald function are turned
on at the same time, only the open window detection icon will appear on the
display. However, the anti-scald function will be enabled.
The next item is the F3 function, which does not affect the operation of the
heater. Skip setting it by clicking the V button.
Memory backup function after power failure
If there is a sudden power failure, the heater’s current operating time
settings are retained at the time of power failure. When the power is
restored, the heater automatically turns on and returns to the previous
operating mode, except for the time, which must be set again. In order for the
memory backup function to work, any changes to the heater settings must be
made. By default (when nothing has been set and the heater has only been
connected to the power supply), the memory backup function is not enabled.
Return to factory settings
After pressing and holding the on/off button for 10 seconds, the heater
settings will be restored to the factory settings, i.e. (temperature in
comfort mode – 19°C, temperature in economy mode – 15.5°C, time – 12:00, day
