1. Main features
The EKRTW is a state of the art programmable electronic
thermostat, which regulates your AD
system, where comfort, simplicity and energy saving go hand in
hand. It is the wired room thermostat option kit, mainly used for
new installations.
The main features are:
■ Room temperature control, based on the measurements of
the internal sensor.
■ Cooling and heating mode (with possibility to disable cooling
function if not required).
■ Off function (with integrated frost protection).
■ Comfort and reduced function modes, using the comfort and
reduced setpoint respectively.
■ Holiday function mode.
■ Weekly schedule timer with 2 custom (
◊1
+
◊2
) and 5
predefined (
π1
~
π5
) schedules.
- The predefined schedules use the comfort and reduced
setpoints of the comfort or reduced function mode.
- The custom schedules use independent, programmed
setpoints (up to 12 setpoints per day).
-You can lock the schedule timer which allows a temporary
override with the comfort or reduced setpoint by means of
a single key push.
- It is possible to link a custom schedule to cooling and
heating mode.
- Comfort startup control. The schedule timer will
automatically start up in advance, trying to reach the
programmed setpoint at the programmed time.
■ Clock (with day and month).
■ Key lock function.
■ Automatic daylight saving time change.
■ Setpoint limitation. Your installer has the possibility to modify
the lower and upper limit of the setpoints. Refer to “Setting
up codes in the installer menu” (code

3Remove the old batteries and insert new ones.
4Put the thermostat cover back in place until it clicks.
8.2. Disposal requirements
The batteries supplied with the thermostat are
marked with this symbol.
This means that the batteries shall not be mixed with
unsorted household waste.
If a chemical symbol is printed beneath the symbol, this means
that the battery contains a heavy metal above a certain
concentration. Possible chemical symbols are:
■Pb: lead (>0.004%).
Waste batteries must be treated at a specialized treatment
facility for re-use.
By ensuring waste batteries are disposed of correctly, you will
help to prevent potential negative consequences for the
environment and human health.
