Once the timer batteries are fully charged, if there is a power cut or if the heater is disconnected from the mains for less than six months, then the timer will continue to keep time & the settings in the memory will remain intact.

If however the timer back up batteries have not been charged fully, or if the heater is deprived of power for longer than six months, then the time and the programme settings are likely to be lost and you may therefore need to reset the time and the programme before using the AUTO MODE again.

Storage

If the radiator is not required for long periods, for example during the summer, it should be stored in a dry place and preferably covered to prevent the accumulation of dirt and dust. The supply cord should be neatly coiled around the cable wrap (see Fig. 1) ensuring that the plug does not trail on the floor.

IMPORTANT

The heater must be kept plugged in at the mains to retain the time and the programmed settings. If unplugged from the mains, resetting the time and the programmed settings will be necessary.
