Get hot water the timer and how to keep it on

The Grasslin Thermio Eco Ecosave provides hot water using a timer-controlled system that switches the connected load (such as a water heater) on and off based on set times. Each tappet on the timer represents 15 minutes. When a tappet is pushed outward, the load is switched on (heating water); when pushed inward, the load is off.
To keep the hot water on, push all tappets outward for the desired time range. The timer only works if the device is switched on using the on/off switch. Time must be set manually, including changes for summer and winter time.

This manual ensures safe and efficient use of the “thermio™ eco ECOsave” multi-tariff timer with boost function (referred to as “device” in the following). This manual is a component of the device and must remain accessible at all times for everyone who uses the device. Everyone who uses the device must have read and understood this manual before commencing any work.

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.

Damage to the timer due to incorrect installation position! If an unsuitable installation position is selected, the timer may be damaged. − Only use the timer in dry rooms and do not install close to devices with NOTICE! inductive discharge (motors, transformers etc.). Residual risks The device is state-of-the art and designed in accordance with current safety requirements.
