OPERATE INSTRUCTION

  • Remote control operation is similar to Manual control operation, except that “Child lock”, is only located in the remote controller and the “Open Window detection” function, is located only in the panel.
  • The Comfort temperature is the one most frequently used. The Comfort temperature in winter is usually between 20 and 23ºC.
  • The Economy temperature is the temperature at which the appliance makes a moderate consumption, saving energy, since it maintains the room at a constant temperature, bearing in mind the previous values and a series of others (geography, altitude, orientation, etc.).

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAVING AND OPTIMISING CONSUMPTION
It is highly recommendable to use programmers to adjust the radiator to our lifestyle and thus optimize consumption.
It is important each room is heated at the right temperature at all times. A perfect balance between comfort and savings should be achieved.

Room Comfort temperature Economy temperature
Daytime Living romm, office 21-22ºC 18-19ºC
Night-time bedroom 20ºC (when we get up and go to

bed)

| 17ºC (while we are sleeping)
---|---|---
Zonas communes| 18-19ºC| 15-16ºC

TO SWITCH THE APPLIANCE ON OR OFF

  • When connected to the power supply this symbol will appear
  • When you switch on the Radiator, the microprocessor reads the internal memory of the appliance and remembers the last mode set by the user.
  • On the first connection, the memory is empty, and the display will flash until a key is pressed.
  • If we press the button, the display will show as Fig 8.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-10

SELECT THE WORKING MODE

  • Every time you push the button, the unit will turn on and the display will look like Fig 9.

Comfort Mode. A sun is shown in the display, as you can see in Fig 10.
We set the Comfort temperature according to our requirements by pressing the button + or -. (Fig.10)

  • Economy Mode. A moon is shown in the display, as you can see in Fig 11.
  • We set the Economy temperature according to our requirements by pressing the button + or -.( Fig.11)

Important: When setting a “Comfort” mode temperature, the “Economy” mode automatically drops 3ºC. And vice versa; i.e. if we set the “Economy” mode temperature, the “Comfort” mode automatically decreases by three degrees.
E.g., if we set a Comfort temperature of 24ºC, the Economy temperature automatically falls to 21ºC.

  • Programming Mode. The display blinks and shows PRO and current programming as in Fig 12. In next pages, you’ll find how to set the program.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-14

  • Anti-frost Mode. This mode is equivalent to turning Off the device and its function is to prevent the temperature from going below 7ºC. The radiator will turn on only if the temperature falls below 7ºC. This mode cannot be adjusted.

  • To change mode and display, check below Fig. 14.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-16

  • When this symbol appears on any of the appliance options display, it means the radiator is on, i.e., the resistance is working.
  • This symbol appears in every mode when the resistance is working.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-18

HOW TO PROGRAMME YOUR RADIATOR

  • Go to Off mode as in the picture. Press and hold for 5 seconds

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-19

  • The next display will appear immediately, where we will program the mode we wish: Comfort, Economy, or Anti-frost, which “in fact is an Off mode and its function is so that the appliance temperature will not drop below 7ºC”, and the time we want this mode to go on.
  • Here is the programming display:

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-20

Once we have entered the programmer, the control buttons are:

  • Button M is for changing the mode (Comfort, Economy, Anti frost)
  • Button+: To move to the next hour
  • Button- if for moving back to the previous hour

The days of the week (each day has its corresponding number: Monday 1, Tuesday 2, Wednesday 3, Thursday 4, Friday 5, Saturday 6 and Sunday 7).

Let’s see a step-by-step example

After pressing and holding button for 5 seconds

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-21

We can see that this display appears. First, we must know that programming is to be done hour by hour passing through all the days of the week.
Let’s say, for example, we want to program the Comfort mode between 00:00 and 1:00 on Monday. Simply press + until the sun symbol flashes (Fig 19) and then press M. By doing this, we have set the Comfort mode between 0:00 and 1:00.

  • And now we move straight to the next hour, from 01:00 to 02:00, showing 1:00 in the display (Fig 20)

Now we’re going to set the Economy mode between 1:00 and 2:00 by simply pressing M until the moon symbol flashes and then we press M. By doing this, we have set the Economy mode between 1:00 ands 2:00. Then we press + and now the time (2:00) appears.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-24

  • Now we’re going to set the Anti-frost mode between 2:00 and 3:00 by simply pressing M until the frost symbol flashes and then we press +.

  • Summary of what we have done. We have programmed the following: the Comfort mode between 0:00 and 1:00; the Economy mode between 1:00 and 2:00, and the Anti-frost mode between 2:00 and 3:00.

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-26

  • And so we proceed to successively program Day 1 hour by hour and then we continue with the other days of the week.

How to program the current day of the week and time

Important: If we want to escape at any time to program the current day of the week and time, press
When we get to the end of all the days of the week, “Pro” appears on the display and then this display is for setting the current day and time

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-27

  • With the buttons + or – we pass through the days until we find the current day, e.g. Monday, we go to 1, or Wednesday, we use + or – to 3 (Fig 26)

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-28

  • Now we press M (M) and the hour display starts to flash. With + or – we adjust the display to the correct hour, then press M.
  • Now the minute’s display starts to flash. With + or – we adjust the display to the correct minute, then press M. The appliance returns to the Off position. (Fig 27)

Important

  1. If you want to change the mode at any time, use the – button to go back hour by hour and press M to change the mode to the desired one.
  2. You must schedule 24/7. You can’t skip days and leave them unscheduled. If you want to program a day in which the transmitter is switched off at all times, you must select the Antifreeze mode at all hours of that day.
  3. If you want to exit at any time to set the current day of the week and time, press. Keep in mind that the transmitter will work with the last programming carried out on each day. That is, if you exit the schedule after ending Wednesday (3), the device will work with the schedule you just did between Monday (1) and Wednesday (3) but from Thursday (4) to Sunday (7) it will work with the last programming that has been done in those days.

Now we are ready to use the programming mode. To activate it, all we have to do is switch on the appliance by pressing the button and search for the programming mode with the button M until the next display appears fluctuating between these two. (Fig.28) This means that the programming mode has been activated and is now working. (This is the only way to set the programming mode).

Orbegozo-REH-500-A-Radiator-Panel-FIG-30

The programming mode is working

Further details

When the programming mode is working,

  • On this display, We can see the day, the temperature according to the set mode (Comfort, Economy, Anti-frost) and the squares flash showing the current time if the set mode is Comfort or Economy Mode.
  • This display shows Day 1, Comfort mode temperature 24ºC and the square is flashing at the sun symbol between 0:00 and 1:00, which means it runs on Comfort mode between 0:00 and 1:00 on Monday.
  • On this mode, we can set Comfort or Economy temperature according to our requirements by pressing the button + or –.

OTHER FUNCTIONS

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
Due to the characteristics of the appliance, the temperature is measured on the lower part of the radiator, is perfectly adjusted in relation to the Comfort temperature selected by the user. However, it is also possible to set the “Temperature Compensation” manually.
Room temperature recorded – Comfort temperature indicated = Value…

For example
22ºC in a room temperature measured with the thermometer when the Comfort temperature required on the thermostat (indicated) is 20ºC.
The temperature compensation value is 22 – 20 = +2ºC
The user must enter +2ºC on the temperature compensation menu.

  • Step 1: Turn the thermostat to the Off position by pressing the button .
  • Step 2: By pressing button M and holding for for 5 seconds, we will enter this M where the display shows 0.0
  • Step 3: Press buttons + or – to adjust fractions of 1ºC
  • Step 4: Press button M to confirm and return to the OFF position.
  • Step 5: Switch on the heater by pressing the button .

Child lock
The user can make sure that nobody changes the set programming, by locking the control panel. This function is very useful for public buildings or for preventing children from tampering with the controls.
It is done by pressing the button on the remote control. To unlock it, press the same button again.

KEY LOCK

  • The user can make sure that nobody changes the set programming, by locking the control panel. This function is very useful for public buildings or for preventing children from tampering with the controls.

Possible thermostat problems

  • If the thermostat is below -15℃, the screen will display OC.
  • If the thermostat is above 50℃, the screen will display SC.

CLEANING

We recommend keeping electric radiators clean. Dust may appear, which can burn and settle on the wall and on the emitter in the form of streaks or dark areas. These stains are exclusively due to the lack of cleanliness of the electric radiator and the surrounding area.

DISPOSAL OF OLD ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed-out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance, it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliances.
