Heat selection
There are three heat selecting modes to choose from, these can be selected at any point during operation. To
set/change the heat mode press the Heat Selection button ' ' while in an active heating mode.
The available heat modes are:
Intelligent (Eco) Heat - The product will automatically regulate the output power
depending on requirements. In this mode the product operates at full power, however
the output of the product is automatically reduced and regulated as the room
temperature approaches the desired level. This mode optimises energy use by
calculating the most efficient and effective way to achieve the desired temperature
setting. The desired room temperature can be adjusted at any time during operation
by pressing the appropriate button.
Low Heat - In this mode, the appliance will operate at a low heat setting, the appliance
will automatically cycle at this setting to achieve and maintain the desired room
temperature.
High Heat - In this mode, the appliance will operate at a high heat setting, the appliance
will automatically cycle at this setting to achieve and maintain the desired room
temperature.
Setting the 'Desired' Room Temperature
The temperature is set using the temperature increase ' ' and temperature decrease ' ' buttons. The room
temperature can be set in the range between 5°C to 30°C. Please note the temperature indicated on the display
represents the desired room temperature. It does not display the actual room temperature. The temperature can
be adjusted at any point during the operation.
Note - If the temperature set is lower than the room temperature then the product will not emit heat. The
temperature display will be flashing to indicate this. The product is still actively controlling the room temperature
and will automatically turn back on if additional heat is required, i.e. the room temperature lowers or the set
temperature is increased higher than the room temperature.
