Please read the Operating Manual carefully before assembling it or any other activity related to work with the device! AWENTA shall not be liable for any damage resulting from incorrect operation, non-intended use or unauthorised repairs or modifications of the product.
1.2. INTENDED USE The unit is equipped with a cross-flow plate heat exchanger, electric heater (optional) and is designed to save thermal energy by its recuperation, being one of the elements used in energy-saving technology systems. The unit is considered a supplementary device and must not be used as a stand-alone, independent heating source.
1.5. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION Specifications: ZEPHYR 405 ZEPHYR 605 Supply voltage 230 V AC / 50 Hz Maximum power consumption 330 W 405 W (without preheat coil) Preheat coil power 2000 W Electrical protection class IP protection class IP24 Capacity (at 100 Pa) 417 m 616 m Max.

1.8. OPERATION PRINCIPLE Fresh air is drawn in with the air intake located outside the building. Then, using ventilation ducts, the air is transported to the air handling unit. After filtering, it flows to the heat exchanger where heat energy exchange from the exhaust stream takes place.

Draining of condensate The condensate drip tray provided with a pipe to drain the condensate outside the unit. The condensate drain pipe should be connected to the building's drainage system via a trap. The pipes have to be arranged with a slope of approximately 2%. NOTE: Fill the drain system with water, before connecting the unit to the power network! The drain trap must be filled with water during operation at all times.
1.11. MAINTENANCE It is absolutely necessary to disconnect the control panel from power supply before performing any maintenance operations. Filter replacement/cleaning Fouled filters increase air flow resistance which reduces the amount of air supplied to the rooms, and increases power consumption by the fans.
1.13. WASTE MANAGEMENT NOTICE Do not dispose of waste electrical equipment with household waste. The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol on this product that it is waste electrical an electronic equipment (WEEE) at the end of its operating life and shall not be disposed with household waste. The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol specifies that the product is subject to obligatory waste segregation schedules for proper disposal.
NANO COLOR CONTROL PANEL 2.1. OPERATION PRINCIPLE The NANO COLOR determines the set room temperature and ventilation performance based on the selected operating program. Possible programs: ● By clock zones. You can set up two Comfort operation zones and one Out of Home zone (no is one in the apartment). Outside of these zones the Economy zone applies.
NANO COLOR NOTE: In order to ensure smooth data transmission it is necessary to install a ferrite filter on the power and communication wires between the AERO module and the NANO COLOR thermostat. When leading the conductors through the filter loop them around the ring as shown in the photo at the side.
