General installation advice

The climate display device/control "R-Tronic" should be installed at a location
where a good circulation of air is guaranteed. If possible, the "R-Tronic" should
be mounted onto an inner wall or a pillar at a height of 140 cm to 170 cm.
Please make sure that the wireless thermostat is not affected by other heat
sources (such as sunlight or heating devices next to it).
The wireless thermostat cannot only be mounted onto a wall, but can also be
placed on a table stand which is available as optional accessory for all models.
The table stand should be set up freestanding, for instance on tables, side-
boards or similar and should not be covered.
The communication between the "R-Tronic" and the receiver "R-Con" is ra-
dio-based. Please observe that the radio range can be impaired by spatial
factors such as room geometry, existing objects, materials and interference
sources and so-called "radio shadows", for in-stance behind metal objects,
may develop.
Reduction of radio range compared with an unobstructed visual contact:
Material
Wood, gypsum, uncoated glass
Brickwork, wooden or gypsum
walls or walls made of press boards
Armoured concrete
Metal
Note regarding radio communication between
"R-Tronic" and wireless receiver "R-Con"
It might therefore become necessary to re-position the wireless thermos-
tat to guarantee an uninterrupted radio communication to the receiver
"R-Con". Alternatively, technical measures, such as the use of an antenna
extension at the wireless receiver or of a wireless repeater might become
necessary. For more detailed information see paragraph 4.6.
