6.2 SETTING THE TARGET TEMPERATURES
The thermostat settings can only be set whilst the unit is turned on (not standby).
Unlike many panel heaters the Accona Timer range utilises two temperature
ranges.The first is the temperature the heater will maintain during the ‘Peak’
setting, and the second is the ‘Off peak’ setting.
Peak :When you are want a ‘comfortable’ temperature whilst occupying the
room in which the heaters is located.This can be as high as 30°C.
Off Peak :The Off Peak (typically night) temperature setting ensures the room
will not fall below a user chosen temperature .This can be as low as 5°C (frost
protection) and must be a few degrees cooler that the Peak temperature setting.
Step 1:
Press the °C icon to enter the ‘Peak’
temperature setting mode, when selected
correctly it will be indicated by the flashing
symbol.
Step 2:
To alter the target temperature, press
the up/down icon the desired number of
times. In this example the up icon has been
pressed three times to increase the set
point from 22°C to 25°C.
Step 3:
Press the °C icon to store the ‘Peak’
temperature and also move onto the ‘Off
peak’ setting.‘Off peak’ is indicated by the
symbol which will flash when selected.
Step 4:
As with step 2 it is possible to alter the
target temperature for the ‘Off peak’ mode
by simply pressing the up/down symbol the
desired number of times. In this example
the down icon has been pressed three
times to change the target temperature
from 17°C to 14°C.
Step 5:
To store the ‘Off peak’ setting simply press
the °C icon once.The display will now
return to the current room temperature
display.

6.3 SELECTING A PRE-LOADED SCHEDULE
The heater is supplied with number of pre-loaded operating schedules already
stored in memory. It will be quicker to choose one of these defaults if it
corresponds sufficiently closely to your requirements, but you can create your
own schedule if you wish (see ‘programming your own customised schedule’).
The pre-loaded schedules are identified by a two letter code (eg “P3” or “CF”)
and are as follows:
Table of Pre-loaded Operating Schedules
NOTE:
1. The numbers 0,8,16 and 24 represent time on a 24-hour clock and equate to midnight,
8:00am, 4:00pm and midnight respectively.
2. The symbol means the heater operates in OFF PEAK MODE during the given time.
3. The symbol means the heater operates in PEAK MODE during the given time.
4. CF means FROST PROTECTION MODE; the unit will heat only to avoid frost and protect
itself when the room temperature is very low. The temperature cannot be
adjusted in this program.
5. CE means OFF PEAK MODE all the time.
6. CC means PEAK MODE all the time. This is the factory default setting.
7. UP means USER PROGRAM; the user can set the program according to his/her specific
needs. The UP program factory default is PEAK MODE all day, every day.

6.3 SELECTING A PRE-LOADED SCHEDULE (continued)
The pre-loaded schedules that are available are defined in the previous table.
If you wish to have the unit operate in non-timer style you should select
pre-set ‘CC ’to swith the heater on/off press the button.
Study the available pre-sets to decide which setting is best suited to the
requirements.
Step 1:
Press the Picon to enter the schedule
selection mode.This will cause the current
selected pre-set to flash. Upon first
operation the default pre-set is ‘CC’.
Step 2:
Press the up/down icon until the desired
schedule is displayed.We have selected P2
as our schedule.
Step 3:
Once the desired schedule is selected,
press the Picon to store and run this
setting.The display will now show the
selected schedule.
6.4 PROGRAMMINGYOUR OWN CUSTOMISED SCHEDULE
Along with a number of pre-sets schedules (see table in previous section) there
is also one schedule that can be used to create your own custom timer settings.
This schedule is represented by the initials ‘UP’ (user programmed).
Step 1:
First select the ‘UP’ mode from the pre-set
program (see ‘selecting a pre-set’ section
6.3).
Enter the ‘UP’ editing mode by selecting the
icon.The screen will display the current
day of the week flashing. In the example the
day in question is Monday (Mon).

11
6.4 PROGRAMMINGYOUR OWN CUSTOMISED SCHEDULE (cont.)
Step 2:
Next select the day to programme. Simply
press the timer icon until the required
day is displayed. In this example we have
selected Wednesday (Wed) which required
two presses of the timer icon.
Step 3:
Now the day is selected a value for every segment of a full day must be assigned
(there are 24 in total).The program will only be saved when this is complete. Use
the up/down icon to allocate the mode for each segment. Up = ‘peak’ setting and
down = ‘off peak’. In the below example the down button has been pressed eight
times followed by the up button eight times and finally the down button eight
times.This will mean the heater operates in ‘off peak’ temp from 00.00 to 08.00
and then ‘peak’ setting from 08.00 until 16.00 and then finally ‘offpeak’ from16.00
until 00.00.
To confirm and save this setting, press the icon. Next repeat the whole process
for each of the remaining six days of the week.
7.ADVANCED FEATURES (7-day timer models AN1500T and AN2000T)
7.1 COPY AND PASTE PROGRAMMING
To make creating a ‘UP’ (custom schedule) slightly easier, you may wish to copy
and paste a full day’s program onto another day. For instance, you have set
Monday’s program and you wish to replicate this for the remaining week days.This
can be achieved by copying and pasting Monday’s settings on to the remaining days,
this will negate the need to program each segment for each day separately. Follow
the below process to achieve this.
Step 1:
To enter the ‘UP’ program from the default
pre-sets (see timer functions section.
Enter the ‘UP’ editing mode by pressing
the icon.This will bring up the screen as
shown.

12
7.1 COPY AND PASTE PROGRAMMING (continued)
Step 2:
To copy the Monday (Mon) programme,
press the icon.This will copy the
programme and the screen will confirm this
with the word ‘Copy’ displayed alongside
the word ‘Prog’.
Note: to copy from a different day, select the required day using the clock icon
before pressing the icon.
Step 3:
Press the timer icon the desired number of
times to cycle to the day to programme to.
In this example we have pressed the timer
icon twice in order to display Wednesday
(Wed).
Step 4:
Press the icon to complete the paste of
the custom setting onto the desired day.
In order to paste to more days you will
need to exit the current screen using
icon, and then returning to Step 1 of
this section to repeat for other days.
