7 Faults/Error-tracking/Maintenance

ATTENTION!
The storage heaters must be repaired by qualified
installers. Improper repairs may result in considerable
risks for the user!
NOTE
The devices are fitted with high quality thermal
insulation. The core space cover, with its integrated
insulation, should only be removed when a storage
heater is being replaced. All other electrical elements/
components can be accessed by removing the side
panel.

7.1 Maintenance

We recommend you regularly vacuum clean around the heat-
er's ventilation grille and the lower grille on the right side pan-
el.
You should also check the controls and regulators at regular
intervals to see if they are functioning correctly. This check
should be performed every 10 years (at the very least) to pre-
vent unnecessary energy consumption.

7.2 Rectifying Minor Problems

Room too cold
• Check the storage heater fuses in the wiring distribution
unit and switch them on again, or replace them if neces-
sary.
• Input charge set too low. Adjust the setting.
• Room temperature controller set incorrectly. Adjust the
setting.
• Ventilator in the storage heater does not run. Check the
fuse in the wiring distribution unit and switch it on again, or
replace it if necessary.
• Either the windows and doors are kept open or neighbour-
ing rooms are not heated, although it was assumed they
would be heated when the dimensions for setting the tem-
peratures were calculated.
No fault is present.

system:
Central charge control system set incorrectly.
