SETTING THE TIMER
Using the timer, it is possible to set two separate time periods
at which the appliance will operate.
Ensuring the programmer is on standby (LCD screen will not
be illuminated), press the CLOCK button three times. The first
pair of digits on the clock display will flash and the timer
settings display will read ‘ON’. The number immediately below
this will indicate that programme #1 is currently being
modified.
Press the TIMER ADJUSTMENT buttons (+/-) until the time is
set to the hour you wish the appliance to start.
Press the CLOCK button; the second pair of digits in the clock
display will begin to flash. Adjust in the same way to set the
minutes past the hour.
Press the CLOCK button and set the hour you wish the
appliance to cease operation. Press the CLOCK button once
more and set the minutes past the hour.
To return to standby mode, repeatedly press the CLOCK
button until the current time is displayed. To set a second
programme, instead press the CLOCK button once.
The first pair of digits on the clock display will flash and the
timer setting display will read ‘ON’. The number immediately
below this will indicate that programme #2 is currently being
modified.
Use the TIMER ADJUSTMENT buttons (+/-) as described
above to set the second programme. After setting the minutes
past the hour, press the CLOCK button once to return to
standby mode.
To activate the programme(s), press the TIMER ON/OFF
button once. The timer status display will read ‘1’.
The Activair should now cut in and out according to the times
set. The running indicator will display the SUN symbol
whenever the appliance is operating.
Please note that during the time periods at which the
appliance is set to operate, it will not do so constantly. When
the cylinder water temperature has reached the required level,
the heat pump will cease operation until the water has cooled
or has been used. During these periods, the SUN symbol will
flash in the running indicator display.
Please ensure that all other required parameters, such as
cylinder water temperature (see adjacent column), have been
set before operating the appliance.
To cease operation in this mode, press the TIMER ON/OFF
button once. The timer status display will read ‘0’ and the
appliance will return to non-timed control mode.
NON-TIMED CONTROL
It is possible to operate the appliance without using the timer
control. Ensure that the clock and all other required parameters
have been set before continuing.
Ensure the timer status display reads ‘0’ and press the ON/OFF
button at the top right of the programmer. The LCD display and
power indicator light will illuminate and the appliance will start.
The running indicator will display the SUN symbol whenever the
appliance is operating.
The appliance will now run until the required cylinder water
temperature is reached, at which time the SUN symbol will flash
in the running indicator display.
Please ensure that all other required parameters, such as
cylinder water temperature (see below), have been set before
operating the appliance.
To cease operation in this mode, press the ON/OFF button
once. The LCD screen and power indicator light will fade.
SETTING THE WATER TEMPERATURE
The appliance can be set to heat water between a range of
40°C and 55°C, depending upon your preference. The water
temperature can be adjusted at any time, whether the heat
pump is running or inactive.
To set the cylinder water temperature, press the
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT buttons (+/-). The temperature
display will change accordingly, before returning to displaying
the current cylinder water temperature.
When the cylinder water temperature has reached the required
level, the appliance will cease to operate until the water in the
cylinder has been used or has cooled.
