The maintenance may be performed by service installers approved
by the manufacturer only.
- The functionality of the programmer depends on the model and
equipment. This installation leaflet is part of the product and has to
be obtained.
APPLICATION
- The RF programmer is developed to control and manage by
program function the working mode of electric radiators.
- The programmers have been designed for use in residential rooms,
office spaces and industrial facilities.
Verify that the installation complies with existing regulations before
operation to ensure proper use of the installation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting work disconnect power supply!
- All installation and wiring work related to the thermostat must be
carried out only when de-energized. The programmer should be
connected and commissioned by qualified personnel only. Make sure
to adhere to valid safety regulations.
- The programmers are neither splash - nor drip-proof. Therefore,
they must be mounted at a dry place.
- Do not interchange the connections of the sensors and the 230V

Now the installation is connected and ready to work.
To make the installation easier, it will be better to have the
programmer near to the receiver during the configuration
mode.
(A minimal distance of > 50cm must be respected to avoid
