Quick Reference Guide
General Introduction
This storage heater heats its highly insulated stor-
age core of dense ceramic material at preselected
times to meet the day’s heating requirements.
When heat is required throughout the day, the
heater releases its stored heat by a silent ther-
mostatically controlled fan. The Dimplex control
system automatically stores more energy as it
gets colder, keeping you warm and comfortable no
matter the outdoor conditions. Additional boost ele-
ments are incorporated to ensure consistent com-
fort if the core ever runs low on energy.
The Benets of Quantum
Quantum is designed to be a responsive heating
system that meets your comfort requirements while
optimizing energy use. The heater releases heat in
two ways:
• A small amount of heat is dispersed by ‘natu-
ral’ convection and radiation from the heater
case.
• The vast majority of heat is released using the
built-in fan that pushes hot air out from the
heat outlet grille at the bottom of the product.
Minimizing the release of stored heat from the
outer casing means that more energy is available
when warmth is required. This makes more ef-
cient use of the stored energy as you can ‘turn off’
the heater when you are out or do not need it.
Choosing a Location
Compared with traditional storage heaters the
amount of energy released from the outer case
of the heater is signicantly reduced. This allows
more efcient running because the Quantum is
heating the room only when you want it to.
!NOTE: Occasional clicking sounds during
operation are due to temperature changes in the
storage core.
When determining a location for the Quantum Stor-
age Heater ensure that no objects are closer than
300 mm (11.8”) in front of the unit, 100 mm (3.9”)
on either side or 250 mm (9.8”) above the heater.
(Figure 2)
!NOTE: The new material in the heater will pro-
duce a slight smell for the rst few days of opera-
tion.
CAUTION: Rooms must be well ventilated and
your children, cages birds, or persons with respira-
tory complaints must not remain in close proximity
to the heater during the rst 48 hours of the start-
up period of each heater.
!NOTE: During rst operation of the fan you may
notice a small amount of dust discharged from the
air outlet grille at the bottom of the product.

Operation
CAUTION: During the initial operation some
odor may be noticed due to the newness of materi-
als used in manufacturing. This is normal and will
disappear after a short period of use. It is however
advisable to keep the room well ventilated. Rooms
must be well ventilated and young children, caged
birds, or persons with respiratory complaints must
not remain in close proximity to the heater during
the rst 48 hours of the commissioning period. This
must be done for each heater (staggered over a
few days).
Controls
The user controls are located on the top right of
the heater. The heater is tted with an adjustable
electronic temperature controller and three but-
tons.
1. Display Screen
2. “Menu” Button
3. “Back” Button
4. “Advance” Button
5. “Selector Dial”
The minimum room temperature setting is 7°C
(45°F) and may be used for protection against
frost. The maximum temperature setting available
is 30°C (86°F).
A temperature of approximately 20°C (68°F) repre-
sents a normal room temperature.
It is normal for the fan to stop running for periods
of time. This happens because the room tem-
perature is at or above the temperature set on the
control and the room does not need any more heat
at that time.
Control Functions
The heater controls can easily be adjusted by
using a combination of the three buttons and the
selector dial, which can be rotated and pressed.
1. DISPLAY SCREEN shows the options avail-
able at each stage of the adjustment. COM-
FORT ON/OFF illustrates the part of the time
function that is currently running.
Comfort On – will control the room to the
set temperature.
Comfort Off - will control the room to the
setback temperature.
Boost Mode - includes an auxiliary boost
element to ensure consistent comfort if the
core ever runs low on energy.
2. MENU displays the options available;
Date/Time - Setting current date/time.
Timer Mode - Setting the timer to your indi-
vidual requirements.
Boost – Enables the auxiliary boost ele-
ment to work automatically. Associated
timer can be set to operate heater for 1 – 4
hours at a time.
Options - Temperature formats, ‘Daylight
Saving’ settings, and Setback settings.
3. BACK shows previous programming stage.
