READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The illustrations in this document are generic; your control appearance may be slightly different from the ones shown.
WARNING:
Electrical wiring must be done by qualified personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards. Before connecting wires, unplug the unit or
switch power off at the service panel and lock service disconnecting means to
prevent power from being switched on accidentally. Always wear safety glasses
and gloves while performing these instructions.
CAUTION
If ducts have to go through unconditioned space (e.g.: attic), always use
insulated ducts to prevent condensation formation inside and outside ducts,
which could cause material damage and/or mold growth. Moreover, if fresh air
to the building duct and/or stale air from building duct goes/go through an
unconditioned space, the unit must be set to operate continuously in cold
conditions (below 10°C/50°F). Continuous air movement inside ducts will
prevent condensation formation. The unit can be stopped temporarily for
maintenance and/or repair purposes in such conditions. (Refer to section 2.2
from unit User and Installer Manual for more details.)
INSTALLATION
-
Unplug the ventilation unit.
NOTE: If the control is to be installed in an electric box, go to step 5. -
Cut a 27/8” x 1¾” hole in a wall, at a convenient location for the control. Route a cable (type 22/4) for the control from the unit to this hole. See figure at right.
-
Temporarily place the control over the hole and mark both mounting screw hole positions.
-
Remove the control, drill both screw holes (3/16” Ø) in-wall, and insert the wall anchors (included).
-
Strip the end of the cable to access the 4 wires (about 3″). Strip the end of each wire (about 1/4″). Connect the wires to the terminals, regardless of the wire color. Note which wire color has been chosen for each terminal. See illustration below.
-
Mount the control to the wall.
-
Perform the electrical connection to the terminal connector of the unit, as shown below. For more details, refer to the installation manual of the ventilation unit.
NOTE: To avoid miswiring, refer to the notes taken at the step to match the wire color with the right terminal. -
Plug the ventilation unit and test the wall control.
HOW TO USE THE CONTROL
The main button works following this sequence:
- Click 1 = 30% speed
- Click 2 = 40% speed
- Click 3 = 50% speed
- Click 4 = 60% speed
- Click 5 = 80% speed
- Click 6 = 100% speed
- Click 7 = OFF
- and so on
The indicator lights up as per the selected speed and the system exchanges air in continuous ventilation without annoying change state.
NOTE: The system will work properly only if a ventilation speed is selected. Make sure an indicator is lit.
- Press the TURBO button to get 4 hours of ventilation in MAX speed. The TURBO indicator will light up. Once the 4-hour period is done, the system will operate according to the previous setting.
- Press the INT button to get intermittent ventilation. The INT indicator will light up. Within a one-hour period, the system will operate in a selected speed for 20 minutes. The ventilation speed can be changed while the system operates in INT mode. To quit this mode, press the INT button.
- If the maintenance indicator is lit, it means that the filter needs to be cleaned or replaced. Once the filter is cleaned or replaced, press the INT button for five seconds to reset the maintenance indicator. If the maintenance indicator flashes, the LCD screen on the unit will give the error code. Refer to the Troubleshooting section in the ventilation unit user guide for more information.
- At unit first boot, INT and TURBO indicators blink alternately for about 1 minute. If indicators continue blinking after this period, it means that communication cannot be established with the ventilation unit. Make sure wires are correctly connected to the wall control and unit terminals (refer to step 7).
