For DuoHeat to operate correctly, both electricity
supplies must be switched on at all times.
Initial Set Up
Depending on your comfort requirements, there are three
recommended settings:
Low (e.g. holiday home during period of vacancy)
Normal (e.g. typical use)
High (e.g. sheltered accommodation).
Both the Comfort and Background heat settings need to be set
accordingly.

This is the factory default setting, however you should check this
has not been altered by the installer.

this, press the ++

Achieving Optimum Comfort Level
Iftheroomisnotatthedesiredtemperatureintheafternoon/evening:
Adjust the Comfort heat level up or down accordingly.
If the room is not at the desired temperature in the morning:
Adjust the Background level up or down accordingly.
Operate the radiator for 24 hours before making further
adjustments to the settings.
When making adjustments to the Background setting, it is
recommended that you do not change the setting by more
than one bar at a time.
Everyday Operation
Once the Background level has been set (seeAchieving Optimum
Comfort Level above), this should not require any further
adjustment.
Adjust the Comfort setting as required to suit your comfort needs
and occupancy pattern. The control can be lowered slightly (we
recommend by no more than 2 bars) to save energy when the room
is unoccupied and increased again when more heat is needed.
