4.2.6 ENERGy SAvING
This fixes the temperature at 17 °C. "Energy Saving" mode
reduces energy consumption when the room is left unused
GB
but a comfortable temperature needs to be maintained.
To activate "Energy Saving", press the "Mode"
key until the "E S" symbol is displayed in place
of the hour/temperature.
4.3 FUNCTIONS
The appliance has a number of special functions to customise
and optimise use.
4.3.1 ASC
This function measures the thermal inertia of the room to
reach the set temperature and switches the appliance on
in advance to ensure that the "Comfort" temperature is
reached by the set time.
The function can switch the appliance on up to 2 hours early.
This function can be activated and operates only in
"Chrono" mode. (See Ch. 4.2.5.)
A number of days of data acquisition are required
to optimise the accuracy of the ASC function.
4.3.2 OPEN WINDOW
The "Open Window" function automatically detects the
opening of a window which is present in the proximity of
the radiator (for example during the housework) and it goes
in "Anti-Freeze" mode, in order to prevent a useless heating
and save energy. The function can also detect the closing of a
window and reset the previous operating condition.
When switching the appliance on, the function is already ac-
tive, ready to detect any open windows.
To activate or deactivate the function, press
the

When an open window is detected, the "Open
Window" icon flashes.
Now pressing the

icon stops flashing.
For the optimal operation of the function, it is recommended
to install the appliance near a window (Fig. 9).

SUGGESTED AREA
The appliance's reaction to the window openings
and closings depends on multiple factors, among
which the chosen temperature set point, the ex-
ternal temperature, the ventilation degree of the
room, the radiator position in the room, presence
of other heating sources.
The "Open Window" function cannot be activated
or deactivated in "Standby" mode.
If the appliance has detected an open window,
all the operating modes and the "Overdrive (2h)"
function can be selected, however they will not be
active until the window is detected as closed or the
"Open Window" function is cancelled. The "Chil-
dren Safety" and "Keypad Lock" functions remain
active and can be activated and deactivated even
when the appliance has detected an open window.
4.3.3 CHILDREN SAFETy
When the "Children Safety" function is activated, the
surface temperature of the appliance is lower than in normal
operation in the active mode ("Comfort", "Night/Eco",...) to
avoid the risk of burns caused by brief accidental contact.
To activate the function, press the "+" and "-"
keys together and hold them both down until
the icon
To deactivate the function, repeat the same
icon
operation.
"Children Safety" can be activated in all operating modes,
including "Overdrive (2h)". The function cannot be activated
when the appliance is in "Standby".
IMPORTANT:
When this function is active, the appliance heats at reduced
power and therefore the room takes longer to warm up.
