Installaon or removal
Detailed information demonstrating the
different ways of installing or removing
a radiator heating element is available
from the manufacturer or importer (see
footnotes at the end of the manual). Below
we list some basic requirements and princi-
ples which must be followed to ensure long
term, reliable operaon of the product.
Before installaon or rst use:
1. Read the chapter Safety requirements
—Installaon.
2. Fit the heang element using the cor-
rect spanner (size 22).
3. The heang element must be installed
at the boom of the radiator, perpen-
dicular to the radiator pipes, while pre-
serving space for the proper circulaon
of the heang medium.
4. Use a suitable heang medium for ll-
ing the electric radiator, i.e. (water, spe-
cial products based on water and glycol
for use in central heang systems, or oil
which complies with the requirements
of the manufacturer of the radiator and
heang element).
5. Do not switch the heang element on if
it is not fully immersed in radiator heat-
ing medium.
6. Make sure an adequate air cushion is
present to protect against excessive pres-
sure build up within the heater (always
leave one of the radiator valves open).
7. When lling the radiator with hot liquid
insure that the liquid temperature does
not exceed 65° C.

14
8. Follow the subsequent guidelines when
connecng the electrical installaon:
a. Brown wire — live connecon to the
circuit (L).
b. Blue wire — connect to neutral (N)
c. Yellow & green wire — earth con-
necon (PE).
9. Before lling the radiator with heang
medium, ensure that the heang ele-
ment is ed properly and that it is wa-
ter ght.
10. In central heang system radiator must
be ed with the valves enabling dis-
connecon of the radiator from the rest
of the system.
11. The temperature of the heang agent
in the central heang system must not
exceed 82° C!
Notes prior to removal:
1. Before dismantling permanently, dis-
connect the heang element from the
mains and ensure that the radiator is
not hot.
2. Be aware. A radiator lled with liquid
can be very heavy. When moving the
radiator, ensure that you take the nec-
essary safety precauons.
3. Before disassembly, close the appropri-
ate valves and drain the radiator com-
pletely to avoid causing any damage.

Turning the device on with the buon
will result in the radiator heang up to the
set temperature. After reaching the set
temperature the device will turn o and
on regularly in order to maintain the set
temperature.
The construcon of the device as well as
the physical characteriscs of the heang
agent inside the radiator, inuence the way
in which the heat is distributed — the tem-
perature of the boom pipes on the ra-
diator (especially the two located at the
very boom of the radiator), may be low-
er than the temperature of the remain-
ing parts of the radiator — this is a normal
phenomenon.
Temperature increase
In order to increase the temperature of the
radiator, press once or several mes as
required; the correct number of diodes will
start blinking. The last blinking diode indi-
cates the set temperature, whilst the last
diode which shines constantly, indicates
the current temperature. The remaining di-
odes will start shining constantly on reach-
ing subsequent temperature levels.
Temperature decrease
In order to decrease the temperature of
the radiator, press once or several mes
as required; the correct number of diodes
will start blinking. The last diode, which
shines connuously, indicates the set tem-
perature whilst the last blinking diode in-
dicates the current temperature. The re-
maining diodes will start fading on reaching
subsequent temperature levels.

An-freeze funcon
When the device is o and the temperature
surrounding the temperature sensor drops
to below 6° C, the device will switch on au-
tomacally. This is to prevent the heang
agent inside the radiator from freezing. The
acvaon of An-freeze mode is indicated
by the blinking of the middle diode.
Dryer funcon
The Dryer turns the device on for 2 hours,
e.g. in order to dry a towel. Aer this peri-
od of me the device automacally switch-
es to the mode to which it was set before
the dryer mode.
The dryer is turned on by pressing buon
(also when the device is o). The device
will start heang at the temperature which
was last set. This temperature can be mod-
ied as required while the device is running
(buons and ). If the device was o be-
fore the dryer mode was been acvated,
then it will turn o automacally when the
dryer mode is nished.
Press buon at any me to interrupt the
dryer mode.
Calibrang the temperature span
The standard temperature span of the
heang element is 30-60° C. It is possible
to increase or decrease that span by seng
a maximum temperature of between 45° C
and 65° C, (minimum temperature of 30° C
stays unchanged). This allows the user to
achieve a maximum temperature which is
higher than the standard or to eecvely
heat a space with the device during lower
surrounding temperatures.
Example: for the temperature regulaon
span of up to 45° C (30-45° C) modicaon
by one step (one diode), means increase/
decrease of temperature by 3.75° C, while
for the temperature regulaon span of up
to 65° C (30-65° C) modicaon by one step
means increase/decrease by 8.75° C.
In order to modify the temperature span,
unplug the device and plug it back in, while
pressing buon. A single diode will start
blinking on the display panel. Use and
buons to set one of the 5 possible maxi-
mum temperatures. The rst diode stands
