If the Heater button is pressed when the Timer is in stand-by mode or during combustion, the unit will go into normal OFF mode.

Automatic-Economy Mode (Heater)

30 minutes after the present room temperature has reached the set room temperature, the Economy function will start operating automatically and the Economy indicator will illuminate.

•After a room reaches the set temperature, the set room temperature will decrease 3 times automatically, each time dropping by a maximum of 1° C in 30 minute intervals.

•If the set room temperature is “L”, “16”, “26” or “H” a few minutes after operation has commenced, the auto- economy function will not activate and the Economy indicator will not illuminate. (However,

once the auto-economy function has commenced, the unit will continue to operate in that mode if set to the above temperatures.)

The increments shown in the table below are based on a temperature gradient which is calculated using the initial room temperature 1 minute after ignition, and the room temperature 5 minutes after ignition. (This is for when the room temperature is set between 17~25° C.)

Even if the set room temperature is modified while auto-economy is operating, the auto- economy function will continue.

When the present room temperature is over 5° C less than the set room temperature while auto- economy is operating, the auto-economy function will go into stand-by mode. (The Economy indicator will go out.)

The comfort control alters combustion and fan speed more frequently to counteract the feeling of cold air and activates at the 2nd phase of auto-economy operation, preventing discomfort from overcooling and saving energy.

The comfort control pattern is determined from within the PCB.

Like auto-economy, the comfort control does not activate when the set room temperature is “L”, “16”, “26”, or “H”.

During comfort control when the present room temperature is at least 5° C less than the set room temperature, the comfort control will end and the auto-economy function will go into stand-by mode. (The Economy indicator will go out.)
