The “thermio™ eco ECOsave” multi-tariff timer switches the connected loads on or off in defined steps;
the smallest possible switching time is 15 minutes. This makes it possible to individually adjust heating
periods to times with lower cost electricity tariffs, for example; the standard local electricity tariffs are
set by default. The BOOST rotary switch and button can be used to switch on the device for a defined
period, independently of the set switching program. Four BOOST periods can be set: 15 min, 30 min,
60 min or 120 min.
