3.2. Commissioning
An easy installation wizard is programmed in Ecombi ARC electronic control. Follow the start wizard instructions when turning
your Ecombi ARC on for the first time or after resetting it to the factory settings.
START WIZARD - INITIAL SETTINGS.
The Ecombi ARC electronic control will guide you through the commissioning of the unit. The steps to follow are:
a. Select language. Confirm the language in the storage heater electronic control.
b. Date & Time. Check and confirm that the default date & time in the unit is correct. If not, please change it.
c. Charging periods. 2 different charging periods can be set in Ecombi ARC. Set Charging Periods 1 & 2 according to your
electricity low tariff hours.
By default, Ecombi ARC is set to charge from 00:00 to 08:00 hours. If this charging time matches your electricity low tariff hours,
you do not need to make any changes in the unit configuration. Otherwise, you can change charging Periods 1 and 2 to match
your electricity tariff.
d. Temperature programme. This is the last step of the start wizard. Select and confirm the weekly temperature programme that
the heater will follow. By default, 3 different programmes and a 24-hours temperature setting are available.
