Energy saving tips
Saving energy when using central heating
Do not overheat your home. Every degree of room
■
temperature reduction saves up to 6 % on your heat-
ing bills.
Weather-compensated operation and room tempera-
ture-dependent operation:
Do not set your standard room temperature ("Stand-
ard" temperature level) to above 20 °C: See
page 25.
■
Heat your home to the reduced temperature at night
or during regular absences:
–
Weather-compensated operation:
Reduced room temperature
Constant operation and room temperature-depend-
–
ent operation:
Reduced flow temperature
For this, adjust the settings in the time program for
central heating ("Time programs" "Heating"): See
page 21.
In room temperature-dependent operation, time pro-
grams for central heating can only be set at the room
temperature controller.

Tips for greater comfort
More comfort in your home
■
Set your individual preferred temperature: See
page 25.
Adjust the time program for your heating circuits so
■
that your individual preferred temperature is auto-
matically reached when you are present: See
page 21.
In room temperature-dependent operation, time pro-
grams for central heating can only be set at the room
temperature controller.
■
Only for weather-compensated operation:
Adjust the heating curves so that your home is
heated with your individual preferred temperature all
year round: See page 26.
■
To switch off functions that are not required (e.g.
central heating in summer), set operating program to
"OFF" for the relevant heating circuits: See
page 25.
■
If you are going away, set the "Holiday" function:
See page 29.
During the period that you are away, the room tem-
perature will be reduced and DHW heating switched
off.
Note
This function is not adjustable in room temperature-
dependent operation.
Saving energy on DHW heating
■
At night or during regular absences, heat the DHW to
a lower temperature. To do so, adjust the time pro-
gram for DHW heating: See page 24.
Switch on DHW circulation only for those times in
■
which you regularly use hot water. For this, adjust
the time program for the DHW circulation pump: See
page 24.
For additional energy saving functions, please contact
your contractor.
■
If you need a higher room temperature in the short
term, select the "Extended heating" function: See
page 26.
Example: Late in the evening, the reduced room
temperature is set by the time program. Your guests
stay longer.
Note
This function is not adjustable in room temperature-
dependent operation.
If you are spending more time than usual in your
■
home, select the "Day(s) at home" function: See
page 27.
E.g. for public holidays or when the children are on
school holidays.
Note
This function is not adjustable in room temperature-
dependent operation.
