ENGLISH
Fire hazard
Never place any flammable, combustible or insulating
objects or materials, such as laundry, blankets,
magazines, containers with floor polish or naphtha,
spray cans or similar on the appliance or in direct
proximity to it.
Risk of burns!
The surfaces of the appliance casing and the expelled
air become hot during operation (more than 80 °C).
Risk of injury!
The appliance may be used by children aged 8 and up
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or a lack of experience provided that they
are supervised or they have been instructed on how
to use the appliance safely and have understood the
resulting risks. Children must never play with the
appliance. Children must never clean the appliance or
perform user maintenance unless they are supervised.
Electrically generated heat is stored with this appliance. The
electrical heat is generated when the power supply utility enables
the supply of cheaper off-peak power. The times when this supply
is enabled depend on the relevant power supply utility. The times
when it is enabled are predominantly at night. Subject to the
required room temperature, the stored heat is transferred to the
room as hot air via a fan, and partially via the appliance surface.

1 ON/OFF switch for the discharge controller (special
accessory)
2 ON/OFF switch for a booster heater (special accessory)
3 Charge controller (heat store) – infinitely variable rotary
The degree of heat storage (charge) is set via the charge controller
(adjustable with rotary selector 3). For this, a difference must
be made between the operation of appliances with or without
a central, weather-compensated charge control system. The
weather-compensated charge control system is located in the
control panel.
If a central, weather-compensated charge control system is not
installed, set the charge controller as follows:
Setting to stage 1 corresponds to approx. 1/3 of full charging
(spring/autumn).
Setting to stage 2 corresponds to approx. 2/3 of full charging (mild
winter days).
Setting to stage 3 corresponds to full charging (winter days).
Setting to stage 0 corresponds to no charging.
Once you have familiarised yourself with the appliance, you will
be able to find the correct setting as appropriate.
If a central, weather-compensated charge control system is
installed, set the charge controller to stage 3. The weathercompensated charge control system then provides the correct
charge. For differentiated control of individual appliances, you can
also manually match the charge volume to the charge controller,
if a charge control system is installed.
5. Cleaning, care and maintenance
If a pale brownish discolouration appears on the appliance casing,
wipe this off as soo n as possible with a damp cloth and hot soapy water.
Clean the appliance when cold with ordinary cleaning products.
Avoid abrasive or corrosive cleaning products. Never spray
cleaning product into the air slot.
5.1 Cleaning the fluff filter
Important information
Clean the fluff filter in the air inlet grille regularly. This
will ensure trouble-free discharging of the appliance.
If a fluff filter is added, switch OFF the fan.
To clean the fluff filter, proceed as follows:
»Remove the air inlet grille from the catch springs by pulling
forwards at the bottom, and release it from the upper locking
device by lifting slightly.

ENGLISH
Please read carefully.
Observe the instructions of the charge control system
or group control unit.
4.3.2 Heat transfer
The heat transfer (discharge) is regulated via a room thermostat,
either mounted on the wall or integrated inside the appliance. This
is available from Stiebel Eltron as a special accessory.
Set the required room temperature at the room thermostat, which
then automatically regulates the heat transfer via the fan, so the
set room temperature is constantly maintained.
Please read carefully.
If you will be away for several days during a very cold
period, we recommend leaving the room thermostat
switched on, to maintain a room temperature of e.g.
10 °C, so the building or room does not cool down
(frost protection).

»Check the MCB/fuse
and RCD in your
fuse box.
»Adjust the settings.

If you cannot remedy the fault, contact your contractor. To speed
your call for assistance, provide the number on the type plate (no.
XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXXXX):
All required steps to complete commissioning must be carried out
by a qualified contractor. During this process, these installation
instructions must be observed.
We guarantee trouble-free function and operational reliability
only if the original accessories and spare parts intended for the
appliance are used.
7.2 Instructions, standards and regulations
Risk of damage.
Observe the type plate. The specified voltage must

match the mains voltage.
Size the equipment according to the rated consumption
of the appliances.
Note
Observe the Building and Garage Regulations [or local
regulations].
Danger of electrocution!
All electrical connection and installation work must
be conducted in accordance with VDE regulations
(DINVDE0100) [or local regulations], the rules of your
local power supply utility and relevant national and
local regulations.

ENGLISH
Danger of electrocution!
Connection to the power supply is only possible as a
permanent connection.
The appliance must be able to be separated from the
mains power supply by an isolator that disconnects all
poles with at least 3 mm contact separation.
Important information
Secure the appliance to the wall or floor in such a way
as to ensure stability.
The appliance connection is wired to the maximum output (100%).
If jumpers at the terminals are moved or removed, the connected
load can be matched.
8.3 Design operation
The storage blocks are heated via the heating elements between
the rows of storage blocks. The charge can be infinitely adjusted
with the charge controller. The start and duration of the charge
time are set by the local power supply utility.
Two integral protective thermostats and a high limit safety
cut-out prevent the appliance overheating. The protective
thermostats switch back on automatically, but the high limit safety
cut-out must be switched back on after the cause of the fault has

The stored heat is transferred via a fan, and partially also via the
appliance surface. For this, the room air is drawn in by the fan
through the air inlet grille, and released through the air ducts in
the storage blocks, which heats it. Before the hot air produced in
this way is released via the air outlet grille, it is mixed with cooler
room air via two mixing air dampers, so the expelled air does not
exceed the highest permissible temperature. The position of the
mixing air damper, and thus the mixing ratio of the air, is regulated
via a bi-metal controller.
