First Time Power-On
A setup wizard will display when the product is powered on for the fi rst time. This will set the following:
- Time, Date, Daylight Savings Time
- Sound On/Off
For information on using the Heaters controls, refer to page 9. The Heater will then take the User to the Home Screen with the ‘Out All Day’ Timer Mode active.
Important
During initial heat-up, some odour may be emitted due to the newness of
materials used in manufacture. This is normal and will disappear after a short
period of use. It is however advisable to keep the room well ventilated.
Operation Manual
WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE.
The controls are located on top of the heater. This consists of a display screen and six touch sensitive buttons.
- Display Screen
- ‘Menu’ Button
- ‘Back’ Button
- ‘Up and Down’ Arrows
- ‘Enter’ Button
- ‘Advance’ Button
- Heating Status
The heater is fi tted with an adjustable thermostat enabling the room temperature to be controlled. The minimum room temperature is 7°C. The maximum temperature is set to 30°C. A temperature of 21°C is a common comfortable room temperature.
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
fl ooring 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.
-
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.
When the heater is trying to achieve or maintain a room temperature, ‘Heating On’ will be displayed, otherwise, ‘Heating Off ‘ will be displayed, during Timer modes only.
NB : ‘Heating ON / Heating OFF’ will not be displayed in Manual, ECO or Frost Protect modes.
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. -
Menu – Displays the Main Menu;
- Boost – Activate Boost Mode
- Modes – Set the mode of operation.
- Settings – Time/Date, Temperature units etc.
-
Back returns to the previous screen.
-
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.
-
Enter is used to enter sub menus and to confi rm actions.
-
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 13.
Timer Modes
Timer Modes off er the most effi cient 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 fl exible
operation.
Each timer is broken down into 4 defi nable ‘Heating On’ time periods and
temperatures per day, for each day of the week. Each day consists of a 24-Hour
period, starting and
fi nishing at midnight. Out All Day
‘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.
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 16 for instruction on enabling/disabling Adaptive Start.
Available Timer Modes

Highlight one of the available Timer Modes using the arrow keys. Press Enter to select
For User Timer, Home All Day and Out All Day, three choices will be available:
- Select – This option will activate the timer
- Modify – This option allows the timer’s Heating On times and Target Temperatures to be modifi ed
- Preview – This option displays the timer’s confi guration. This is useful to quickly check the timer without being able to change any values
Modifying a Timer Mode
Each timer is broken down into 4 defi nable ‘Heating On’ periods and
temperatures per day.
When Modify is chosen, ‘Heating On’ period 1 of 4 for the current day is
displayed. The current day will be highlighted.
NOTE:
Once modifi ed a Timer Mode must be selected if you want to begin using it.
Select and change each option using the Up, Down and Enter buttons.
Copy & Paste
To save time when modifying a Timer Mode, the Advance button can be used to copy and paste settings. Individual heating periods from one day or every heating period from a day can be copied to another day.
Away Mode
Away Mode temporarily overrides the active mode before returning the Heater
back to the previously active mode.
This is useful 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 modifi ed
before Away mode is activated. The heater will also remember the last Away
Mode Target Temperature defi ned 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 on 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.
NOTE:
The Back button can be used to end the Away Mode countdown early.
Continuous Heat Modes
A Continuous Heat mode is eff ectively a constant Heating On period. The
Heater will remain in a Continuous Heat mode indefi nitely until the mode is
changed by the User.
Available Continuous Heat Modes
Each continuous heat profi le has its own default Target Temperature value.
- Manual
- Default 21°C
- Can be changed from the Home Screen to any value within the range 19-30°C
- Eco
- Default 18°C
- Eco mode temperature can be set in the range 8-18°C
- Frost Protection
- Default 7°C
- Not User Defi nable
Other Functions
These functions modify the normal behaviour of the heater. They don’t
switch the Heater out of a Timer or Continuous Heat Mode, but can
override/delay those operations, or restrict access to them.
The ‘Boost’ Function
Boost can be activated at any time, when the product is set to any Timer or
Continuous heat mode; even if Advance is active, this mode will provide a
temporary ‘Boost’ of heat. For settings, see Boost settings on page 15.
Boost Mode can be activated from the Home Screen by pressing Menu to access
the Main Menu, then pressing Enter to select ‘Boost’.
Activating Boost will present two selectable options: Boost Temp (Boost Target
Temperature) and Boost Time (Boost Duration Countdown). The default values for
these can be set in the Settings Menu.
The Up, Down and Enter buttons can be used to modify these values. Pressing
Back will end Boost early, restoring the heater back to its previously active
mode.
- The Boost Temp can be set to any value within the Heater’s Target Temperature Range setting.
• The Boost Time can be increased in the following increments: 30 min, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours. These increments can be restricted with the Max. Boost Duration Range setting. To modify this range, see Boost Settings on page
Once the Boost Duration Countdown has reached 0, the Heater will return to the mode that was active before Boost was activated.
The ‘Advance’ Function
The Advance button is only used when a Timer Mode is active and allows the
timer schedule to be changed temporarily. This button allows a Heating On
period to begin or end early.
This is useful if you are at home when you had not planned to be, or need to
leave when you had planned to have the heating on.
If the heater displays Heating Off and heat is required, press the Advance
button. If the heater is in Heating On and heat is not required, press the
Advance button and the heater will stop heating until the beginning of the

- Duration Rule – Modifi able Boost Duration while Heater (PIN) Lock is active.
Advance UI Lock Settings
Enable / Disable – This setting allows the User to Enable or Disable the
Advance button while Heater (PIN) Lock is active.
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 modifi es 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 modifi ed.
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 modifi es 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 ned Heating
On time so that the Target Temperature is achieved when the User defi ned 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 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.
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.
Advanced Settings
These settings can be used to signifi cantly change the operation of the
heater. While useful for very specifi c 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 modifi ed by trained professionals.
