If Your Heater Does Not Work

  • Check that power is available to the heater.
  • Check that the thermal cut-out has not operated. This will reset once the appliance has cooled down.
  • Check that the fuse in the spur unit has not blown. This can be done by replacing the fuse with another suitable fuse.

Should none of the above remedies work, then telephone the helpline number shown in these instructions (UK ONLY). Do not attempt to repair the heater.
Connection to the Main Supply
Electrical installation should be carried out by a competent installer, preferably registered with NICEIC (National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting) in accordance with the latest edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations,

fig-2 Basic Operation

Before you can use the PVE, it has to be activated by pressing any of the TIME, PROG, TEMP, or MODE buttons once. The LCD backlight will turn on. To operate any control button, press it within 2 seconds of activation.
The PVE has a standby mode. Standby mode can be accessed by pressing the standby button. In this mode, the timer is locked and none of the control buttons will work. The heating is disabled. To exit standby mode, press the standby button.
This mode can be used to provide frost protection. A minimum temperature can be set in the settings menu. Standby mode will always maintain this minimum temperature. ‘FROST PROTECTION’ will appear on the screen in standby mode when a minimum temperature is set.
Information on setting the minimum temperature can be found in section 9.

Time and day setting

  • -Press and hold the TIME button for 5 seconds.
  • Minutes are flashing – use + and – buttons to set minutes.
  • -Press TIME button
  • Hours are flashing – use + and – buttons to set hours.
  • -Press the TIME button
  • The day is flashing – use + and – buttons to set Day.
  • Once set, press TIME to return to main screen. The PVE has a battery backup, so the time and day settings are saved in the event of power being lost.

Selecting operating mode

PVE has 3 operating modes:
BOOST, MANUAL, and AUTO
Pressing the MODE button whilst in the main menu will toggle between BOOST, MANUAL and Auto mode.

Boost mode

The boost feature increases the room temperature for 15 minutes. To amend the set temperature when in BOOST mode, activate the display and then press TEMP. Next, use the + and – buttons to change the temperature. Once the temperature is set, you can leave the display to return to the main screen and the settings will be saved. After 15 minutes, the PVE will return to previous operating mode. Whilst in boost mode, activate the display and press the PROG button to increase the boost period. The boost period can be increased up to 4 hours. This will reset back to 15 minutes once you exit boost mode.

Manual Mode

In Manual mode, the heater maintains the set temperature. To amend the set temperature when in MANUAL mode, activate the display and then press TEMP. Next, use the + and – buttons to change the temperature. Once the temperature is set, you can leave the display to return to the main screen and the settings will be saved.

Auto mode

In this mode, the PVE will follow the week’s time/temperature program. The temperature can be temporarily overridden in AUTO mode by simply activating the display and using the + and – buttons to set the new temperature. The new set temperature will be then maintained until the next program step. The advanced mode can be used to advance to the next program. To do this, press PROG whilst in Auto mode. To clear advance mode, press PROG.

The PVE has a 7-day timer with up to 6 programming steps available for each day. In the programming, you can set a start time and a temperature for each program. This can be changed to a 5-day + 2-day timer, or a 24-hour timer in the settings menu. Instructions on doing this can be found in section 9.
Set the program inactive.
If you do not require the use of all 6 programs they can be set as inactive. When in programming mode select the program you want to make inactive and press the TIME button. If the program is inactive the display will show “- -:- -”. To activate the program again, press the TIME button.

  1. Press and hold PROG for 5 seconds to enter the time setting.
  2. The day will be flashing.
  3. Use + and – to navigate day, press PROG to select day.
  4. PROG 1 will be flashing. Use + and – to navigate programme, use PROG to select programme.
  5. The minutes will be flashing.
  6. To set minutes, use + and – to change minutes, press PROG to set the minutes.
  7. The hour will be flashing
  8. To set hour, use + and – to change hour, press PROG to set the hour.
  9. The temperature will be flashing.
  10. To set temperature, use + and – to change temperature, press PROG to set temperature.

To add another program repeat steps 2-10.
Copy day function.
If you require the same set of programs throughout the week, an hour timer is available. This will use the same program every day. A 5-day + 2-day timer is also available. This will use the same programs Monday-Friday, and the same programs Saturday and Sunday. These modes are enabled in the setup menu, as explained in section 9. Alternatively, it is possible to copy a program from one day to another. To do this, when programming the 7-day timer, press and hold the TIME button. This will bring you to the copy day mode. To select which day you wish to copy from, use the PROG button to cycle through numbers 1-7 on the screen, this relates to which day you would like to copy. 1=MON, 2=TUE, 3=WED etc. To select which day you would like to copy the programs to, use the + & – to navigate to the day. Once both are selected, press the time button to copy the day. The TO should flash to confirm it has been successful.

Open Window Detection

Ensuring you don’t waste energy on heating the outside world, the heater is equipped with optional open / closed window detection. The heater recognises sudden drops in temperature when a window or a door is opened and turns the heating off to save energy. When the window is closed, the heater will automatically detect a temperature rise, and switch itself back on. Once enabled in the setup menu, the open window detection is fully automatic and does not require any human intervention to be activated.
Setting-up Open Window Detection
The system has been factory set to default time and temperature values. If necessary, all values can be adjusted. When the heating is on, open window detection sensor will automatically switch the heater off when it detects a fall in temperature of 2°C in less than 10 minutes (this temperature can be changed in menu 7 and time in menu 6). If a temperature rise of 2°C in less than 30 seconds is detected, the heater will switch itself back on (this temperature can be changed in menu 9 and time in menu 8).

Setup menu

  1. Press and hold TEMP and MODE together for 5 seconds.

  2. The display will enter the setup menu.

  3. Use + and – to change a value.

  4. Use TIME to scroll between the settings.

  5. Use PROG to exit the setup menu

  6. temperature calibration
    The temperature reading has been factory calibrated but if for any reason it needs adjusting (better accuracy required, to suit different position in the room etc.), the reading can be recalibrated in 0.5-degree steps.

  7. change between degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit

  8. set minimum temperature (3.5 deg = frost protection)
    When this is set, the heater will operate in any mode should the room temperature fall below the set temperature.

  9. set maximum temperature
    When this is set, the maximum temperature in any mode cannot exceed the limit.

  10. open window detection 0 = off, 1 = on

  11. 600 – open window detection time 600 seconds

  12. 2 – temperature drop of 2°C in the detection time

  13. 30 – closed window detection time of 30 seconds

  14. 2 – temperature rise of 2°C in the detection time

A – Program mode select
Choose between a 7-day, 5-day 2-day, or 24-hour timer.

Heat symbol on the display
