Introduction and safety The ComfoAir 70 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 •...
Every other use is deemed as "improper use", and can lead to damaging the ComfoAir 70, 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 ComfoAir 70 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 manual...
The control panels have touch-sensitive buttons, which means the respective operating functions are triggered by touching the relevant buttons. The ComfoAir 70 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.
Operating functions and signalling from the control panel Icon Description Explanation Fan speed The selection for the current fan speed (in total 4 fan speeds with preset operating mode speeds for each fan) is made by using the (-) / (+) buttons. Touching the (+) button sets the next higher fan speed and touching the (-) button sets the next lower fan speed.

Boost ventilation The boost ventilation function as temporarily activated fan mode speed 4 can only be activated with a configured DIP switch setting After the boost ventilation time has elapsed, the unit will be transferred to the most recently selected fan speed. The fan speed that was active for longer than 10 s is deemed as the last fan speed.
The application of the Automatic function follows the logic of a demand controlled system for optimizing the indoor air quality. Consequently, an optimized response is achieved and mildew formation is prevented, which ultimately also leads to an increase in energy savings. The ComfoAir 70 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. The HUMIDITY sensor module is equipped with a humidity and temperature sensor and calculates the relative humidity. In the evaluation of the current sensor signal for the setpoint selection, the fans are regulated in accordance with the characteristic curve in diagram 1.
Standby operating mode. In ComfoAir 70, 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 ComfoAir 70 must be checked in accordance with the relevant notification on the control panel and, if needed must be replaced.
What should I do in case of a malfunction? Contact the installation technician in case of a malfunction. Note down the type of your ComfoAir 70; for more on this, see the type label underneath the design cover of the unit.
Disposal Discuss with your supplier what you should do with your ComfoAir 70 at the end of its life cycle. If you cannot return your ComfoAir 70, do not deposit it in 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 ComfoAir 70 is only allowed in connection with the round wall mounting pipe or with the square wall mounting pipe!
