Information about the appliance 3
3 Information about the appliance
3.1 Product description
The RC35 programming unit makes it easy to operate your Buderus heating system. You can
change the room temperature throughout the whole home with the rotary selector. You only need to
adjust the thermostatic valves on the radiators if it is too cool or too warm in individual rooms.
The automatic mode with its adjustable switching programs ensures energy saving operation by
reducing the room temperature at certain times or shutting down the heating system completely
(adjustable night setback). The heating system is controlled in such a way that you benefit from
optimum heating comfort and minimum energy consumption.
3.2 Correct use
The RC35 programming unit must only be used to operate and control Buderus heating systems in
detached houses and residential buildings.
The boiler must be equipped with EMS (Energy Management System) or UBA1.x (Universal Burner
Automation). We recommend always operating the heating system with a programming unit
(otherwise the system only operates in emergency mode).

4.2 Notes on range of functions
These instructions describe all the possible functions of the RC35. Some
of these functions may not be available, depending on which boiler and
version of the burner control unit are used. For more information, refer to
the relevant chapter. Contact your heating contractor for further details. To
check the version of the combustion unit used (here: UBA1.5), see the help
menu under INFO\VERSIONS (Æpage 20).
You can set (Æpage 29), which value is permanently displayed in the first line of the
standard display (ÆFig. 1,[1]).
If the programming unit is installed on the boiler, the room temperature cannot be
recorded. Instead of the room temperature [2] the boiler temperature (boiler) is then
displayed.

Risk of scalding through DHW temperatures over 60 °C!
WARNING: Risk of scalding!
The factory setting for the DHW temperature is 60 °C. There is a risk of scalding at the
hot water draw-off points if the temperature is set higher than this and also following
thermal disinfection.
BIf the temperature set is higher than 60 °C or following thermal disinfection, never
open any hot water tap without mixing in cold water as well.
What? What is it for? Operation
Initial situation: the flap is closed.
Changing DHW temperature
In the basic setting DHW is available
during the heating phases (day/night) of
the selected switching program. The water
in the DHW cylinder is heated once in the
morning for 30 minutes before central
heating starts.

Heating up DHW once1)
To save energy, during day mode DHW is
only reheated automatically when its
temperature falls 5 °C below the set DHW
temperature.
If you need large amounts of hot water one
evening or outside the set times for day
mode, you can heat up the DHW.
This function is not available with boilers
with UBA1.x.
You can see by the lighting-up of the LED of the

below the set value2).
BTo heat up the DHW manually: press .
The LED on the button starts flashing2).
Heat-up starts, and is later terminated
automatically.
If no heating is necessary (because the water is
still hot), a message will appear. Only the DHW
circulation pump will start (if fitted) to transport
the hot water more quickly to the draw-off points.
BIf you want to stop the heating process:
press again.
Heating up DHW regularly If you regularly need large amounts of hot water
outside the set times for day mode, you can set a
separate program for DHW (Æpage 38).
Switching thermal disinfection on/off
This function heats up the DHW to a
temperature sufficient to kill pathogens
(e.g. legionella).
BSet thermal disinfection (Æpage 44).
1) Setting depends on the boiler used
2) The “DHW LED can also have been switched off by the specialist heating company”
