Introduction and safety The ComfoSpot 50 is built to the current state of the art and the recognized safety regulations. The unit is subject to continuous improvement and development. This is why it is possible for your unit to deviate slightly from the description.
Safety Always observe the safety regulations and installation conditions in the current operating manual. Failure to observe the safety regulations, installation conditions, instructions, warnings, and comments in this document can result in personal injury or damage to the unit. Safety regulations •...
The ComfoSpot 50 was developed and manufactured for the decentralized ventilation of living areas and functional rooms. Every other use is deemed as "improper use", and can lead to damaging the ComfoSpot 50, or to personal injury, for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any kind of damage that can be attributed to the following causes: •...
Frost protection The ComfoSpot 50 is equipped with an automatic frost protection control system, which prevents ice from forming in the heat exchanger at very low outdoor air temperatures. If needed, the frost protection mode is activated both in the four...
The external control panel has touch-sensitive buttons and responds to touching the buttons. The ComfoSpot 50 can be operated at the same time with the internal and the external control panel. The button assignments and the LED signalling in both control panels are identical in terms of functions.

Automatic The Automatic function can only be activated with a sensor operating mode module. (AUTO) AUTO LED lights up Pressing the (+) button from the currently active FS4 transfers the unit to AUTO fan speed. AUTO fan speed is exited by pressing the (-) button, and the unit is transferred back to FS4.
Consequently, an optimized response is achieved and mildew formation is prevented, which ultimately also leads to an increase in energy savings. The ComfoSpot 50 ventilation unit with a sensor module is classified in energy efficiency class A. 2.3.1.1 Functional principle of HUMIDITY sensor The HUMIDITY sensor module is primarily supposed to be installed in units for the ventilation of rooms with an increased occurrence of humidity.

Standby operating mode. In ComfoSpot 50, two high-quality original filters of the class G4 are installed by default. Retrofitting a pollen filter of the class F7 is possible. This is inserted into the lower filter compartment (outdoor air filter). The filters in the ComfoSpot 50 must be checked in accordance with the relevant notification on the control panel and, if needed, must be replaced.

Insert the filters into the respective filter compartments in accordance with their class. Filter compartment for extract air filter (G4) Filter compartment for outdoor air filter (G4 or F7 Using the directional arrow of the filter label pointing to the centre of the unit, insert the new filters. An arrow marker for the direction of flow for the filter is engraved on the bottom cover of the interior cover next to the filter compartment in each respective case.
Disposal Discuss with your supplier what you should do with your ComfoSpot 50 at the end of its life cycle. If you cannot return your ventilation unit, do not dispose of it with the normal household waste, but rather contact your local authority for options to recycle components or to process materials in an environmentally-friendly way.
It must be adjusted flush with the level of the finished wall construction. The installation of the ComfoSpot 50 is only allowed in connection with the round wall mounting pipe or with the square wall mounting pipe! The square wall mounting pipe, intended in particular for new buildings, should be integrated in the outside wall construction in the course of the wall construction.
