Quick Start Guide
This guide is for quick reference only.
Please refer to the operating section on Page 10 for further information.
How Does the Heater Control Work?
The controller allows you to choose when you want heat and at what temperature.
When using a timer mode (see below), Comfort On will display on the home screen to tell you
when the heater is maintaining the temperature displayed. Comfort O will display when the
heater is outside of a timed heating period. When Manual, Eco or Frost modes are being used
the heater will always maintain the temperature shown on the home screen.
Set the Time
To set the date and time on the heater, press Menu, then press Enter with Time / Date highlighted.
Press or until the correct value is shown, then press Enter to conrm and move on to the
next value. Repeat until all details are correct, and Set displays, then press Back.
The time is automatically adjusted in spring and autumn between Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
and British Summer Time (BST).
Set the Temperature
The temperature shown on the display is the room temperature set point (target room
temperature). This is the temperature that the heater will maintain during the heating periods.
If the room temperature is above this temperature then the heater will not operate. The heater
leaves the factory with this temperature set at 21°C which represents a typical, comfortable
room temperature. If you require a dierent room temperature then press either or until the
display shows the temperature you require.
Timer Modes
Your Dimplex GFPE Panel comes
pre-programmed with four timer
modes. These modes dene
the periods when the heater will
operate in Comfort On mode.
The four modes are shown in Fig.5
