Measuring the room
temperature

Main features

living eco® is measuring the temperature with two
built-in sensors - one behind the display and one
near the valve.
Based on both readings the room temperature
is calculated for an area approx. 20 cm in front of
the display. This allows living eco® to control the
actual room temperature very accurately.

Be aware that sources of cold or heat, e.g. fire­place, direct sun or draft, might affect the func­tion of living eco®.

Open-window function

living eco® features an Open-window function,
which closes the valve if the room temperature is
falling dramatically, thus reducing the heat loss.
The heat is turned o for up to 30 minutes, before
living eco® returns to its original settings.
When Open-window has been activated, the
function is quarantined for 45 minutes.

Adjusting to the valve

During the first night of operation living eco® will
shut off the radiator heat and then open again
to detect the exact opening point of the valve.
This will allow living eco® to control the heat as
efficiently as possible. If necessary, the procedure
is repeated once a night for up to a week.
You might experience the valve being warm
during the adjustment procedure, regardless of
the room temperature.

Child lock

Activating the child lock feature will protect the
settings from tampering.

20 cm

Note! The displayed temperature is always the set
temperature, not the actual room temperature.

Intelligent Control (Forecast)

During the first week of operation living eco®
learns when it is necessary to start heating the
room in order to reach the correct temperature at
the correct time.
The intelligent control will continuously adjust
the heating time compared to seasonal tempera­ture changes.

Automatic valve exercising

To keep the radiator valve functional and at its
best, living eco® automatically exercises the valve
every Thursday at approx. 11:00 hrs by opening it
fully and then return to normal setting.

Daylight saving time

As default living eco® will automatically shift
between daylight saving time and normal time.
If necessary, the daylight saving time function can
be disabled.

Installation

M must be ashing on the display before installation.

1. Start by mounting the appropriate adapter.

2. Tighten RA adapter using the 2 mm Allen key.
Hand-tighten K adapter (max. 5 Nm).

3. Screw the thermostat onto the adapter and tighten by
hand (max. 5 Nm).

4. Activate Installation Mode to x living eco® correctly onto the valve:
Press for 3 seconds to select the Function Menu, then use to select M.
When M ashes, press .
