NOTE:
Your heater may produce some noise during operation. This noise is caused by
the expansion and contraction of the element as it changes temperature, and is
normal for this type of product. Whilst the noise produced is usually very
quiet, certain environmental factors can make it more noticeable, such as hard
flooring or minimal furnishings If you believe that the expansion noise is
excessive, please contact us.
NOTE:
Should the heater fail to operate, this may be caused by the room temperature
being higher than the thermostat setting.
The heater controls can be easily adjusted by using the six buttons on the User Interface.
1. The Home Screen shows the options available at each stage of adjustment.
Here the current target temperature (setpoint) is displayed along with the
mode of operation. Any use of the Advance function will be displayed here, and
pressing Enter will show the functions which are enabled.
The currently active mode of operation is displayed at the top of the screen
e.g. `Out All Day’ timer.
Out All Day

When the controller buttons have not been pressed for a long period of time, the display will `sleep’ and the text will disappear. The heater is still on and active in whatever Mode it was set to.
2. Menu – Displays the Main Menu; – Boost Activate Boost Mode – Modes – Set the mode of operation. – Settings Time/Date, Temperature units etc.
3. Back returns to the previous screen.
4. The Up and Down buttons are used to navigate through the menus and adjust the required room temperature on the main screen. The screen colour changes based on the temperature selected, showing deep blue through to bright red.
5. Enter is used to enter sub menus and to confirm actions.
6. The Advance button is only used when a Timer Mode is active, it allows the timer schedule to be changed temporarily by forcing a Heating On period to begin or end early. For more information, see page 16.

Timer Modes
Timer Modes offer the most efficient mode of operation for a predictable heat
demand. Additional functions such as Advance’ and
Boost’ allow the User to
make temporary adjustments to timer schedules for a more flexible operation.
Each timer is broken down into 4 definable Heating On’ time periods and temperatures per day, for each day of the week. Each day consists of a 24-Hour period, starting and finishing at midnight.
Heating On’ periods are times when the heater is trying to achieve and
maintain the target room temperature.
It is possible to change the Target Temperature of a Heating On period when
that period is active. This will temporarily adjust the Target Temperature for
just that instance and will not permanently modify the settings for the timer
in use.
Out All Day

Heating ON
ADVANCE MENU BACK ENTER
NOTE:
If Adaptive Start is enabled, the heater will maintain the room at the
required temperature for the duration of the heating period. To achieve this,
the heater will begin heating the room before the start of the heating period
to ensure the room is at the required temperature when the period starts.
If Adaptive Start (AS) is disabled, the heater will not operate until the
beginning of the heating period. This should be taken into consideration when
setting the heating periods.
See page 21 for instruction on enabling/disabling Adaptive Start.

Away Mode
Away Mode temporarily overrides the active mode before returning the Heater
back to the previously active mode.
This is handy if you are temporarily away at the shops or on holiday and want
your heating to resume as normal operation automatically when you return.
While active, Away Mode can maintain a minimum room temperature. By default,
this is set to 7 °C (frost protection temperature). This can be modified when
Away mode is activated. The heater will also remember the last Away Mode
Target Temperature defined while Away Mode is active.
The Away countdown is set in Time, a Date and a Target Temperature.
Date and Hours are set separately on the heater, making the feature useful for
popping out to the shops or going away on holiday.
· The date set is the return date; therefore, Away mode will end at 23:59 of
the day before. E.g. if a return date of 02.02.2018 is set, Away mode will end
at 23:59 on 01.02.2018.
· If hours are set, this will extend away mode end from 23:59 on the day
before the date set. · If only hours and no date is set, Away Mode will count
from either the current time, or if a date is set.

Boost Settings Default Boost Target Temperature This is the default Boost
Target Temperature that is used when Boost Mode’ is activated. Max. Boost Duration This is the maximum length of time that the user is able to activate
Boost’ for. Shown in minutes (when under an hour) or hours (if
over an hour) in the following increments: 30 min, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4
hours.
The value chosen will be the max allowed when boost is activated.
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. This can be used to prevent the room
temperature from falling below a minimum value while there is no demand for
heat (Heating On). The value of this temperature is restricted to a value
between 7 and 18 °C. This is because Setback should not be treated as a
regular Heating On period.
Date & Time Settings This allows the Time, Date and Daylight Savings Time
settings to be modified.
Sound Audio feedback when the user presses a button can be enabled or disabled
here.
`Comms’ (Communications) This allows Wireless Connectivity features to be
enabled or disabled. Entering this menu item will display a list of available
communications methods to that heater.
Adaptive Open Window Detection This is a global setting that can interrupt any
active mode. Activating this setting enables Open Window Detection to switch
the Heater to a Heating Off state if it detects an open window in the room
it’s operating in.
NOTE:
In environments where the product may read sudden decreases in temperature,
this feature may activate in error. This can occur in drafty or poorly
insulated environments as well as if the heater is undersized for the room.
This feature should be disabled using the instructions above if activating for
reasons other than the intended purpose. If you think that your environment is
not as described here and this feature is activating, please contact our
customer care team with the details on the rear page of this document.

Adaptive Start Setting Adaptive Start is 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 for
only the time required to achieve the Target Temperature 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.
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 two 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 preheating 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.
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.
21
Advanced Settings
These settings can be used to significantly change the operation of the
heater. While useful for very specific requirements, there is a much higher
risk of User error and unintended consequences of changing these settings
compared to the top-level settings menu. It is recommended that these settings
are only modified by trained professionals.
To navigate to the Advanced settings menu, from the home screen: Press and
hold the Advance and Menu buttons for 3 seconds.
Each of the following headings relate to an item in the settings menu.
Temperature Settings Temp Units (Temperature Units) This setting defines which
temperature units are displayed on the heater. The default is °C, but °F can
be set. When °F is selected, the heater will convert °C values to °F and round
to the nearest number.
Service (Service Settings) These items are for use by service personnel only.
The settings effect the effect the accuracy and energy usage of the heater and
should only be modified by a professional.
Room Temp (Temperature) Offset Allows the manual adjustment of electronic
thermostat reading by +/-3.0°C
Factory Reset This setting allows the User to restore the default values to
all settings. Returning the product to the same state that it left the
factory.
