5.2 Heating operation display
The heating is active as soon as the red heating control light in the
bottom right corner of the display slowly begins to flash depending on
the heat requirement (example: 70°C):
5.3 Air change
Opening the air flap in the outgoing air pipe serves to
adjust the air change.
Without connecting a suction plant:
•If the air flap is open and the fan is operating, fresh air
comes in via aeration gaps.
•If the air flap is completely open, the spatial temperature
accuracy can be negatively influenced.
