EN – Instructions for use
Permissible use
The radiator may only be used for heating interior
spaces and for drying textiles washed in water.
Any other use is contrary to its intended purpose
and therefore not permissible.
Misuse
The radiator is not usable as a seating accom-
modation, climbing or lifting support.
Safety instructions
Warning
Risk of burns!
The radiator's surface can heat up to 110 °C
(230 °F).
Be careful when touching the radiator.
Caution
Risk of burns due to squirting hot water
when evacuating air!
Protect your hands.
Additional electric operation
Observe separate instructions for the heating
element.
Ensure that the radiator is always completely
filled with water and has been bled, so that the
radiator heats up properly.
Do not operate the hot water heater and the
heating element simultaneously.
Ensure that the return is open.
Close the thermostatic head.
Maintenance
Vent the radiator after commissioning and fol-
lowing lengthy interruptions of operation.
Cleaning
Use only mild, non-abrasive cleansing agents.
Complaint
Contact your local dealer.
Installation and repairs
Have the installation and repairs performed
by a specialized tradesman so that your claims
under warranty are not forfeited.
Disposal
Recycle or dispose of disused radiators, in-
cluding accessories, properly. Observe local
regulations.
EN – Installation instructions
The radiator may only be installed by a speci-
alized tradesman.
For additional electric operation, the following
activities may be performed only by an electrical
specialist (in Germany, according to BFVA3):
–
Installation and connection of the electric
set
–
Connection of the heating element to the
electric set
Safety instructions
Read these instructions for installation and use
thoroughly prior to installation/commissioning.
After installation pass the instructions on to
the end used.
Observe the safety directions in the separate
electric set instructions.
Danger
Life-threatening situation!
Check the condition of the supply lines (elec-
tricity, gas, water).
Do not drill into any lines.
Warning
Risk of injury!
Note the radiator's weight (see page 6).
At 25 kg and above, work with lifting equip-
ment or several persons.
Warning
Personal injury and material damage!
Check load-bearing capacity of installation
site. Take the radiator's filled weight (see
page 6) and possible additional loads into
consideration.
Check fasteners for applicability and tailor
them to the structural situation.
Special requirements, e.g. for public buil-
dings (schools or the like), must be taken
into account.
Operating conditions
Observe operating conditions for water hea-
ting installations according to DIN 18380 "VOB
German Construction Contract Procedures".
Observe water's condition according to VDI
[Association of German Engineers] 2035
"Prevention of damage in water heating
installations".
Observe limitations of use in damp loca-
tions according to DIN 55900 "Coatings for
radiators".
Use radiator only in closed heating systems.
Store and transport radiator only in the protec-
tive packaging.
For additional electric operation:
Select heating element heat output accord-
ing to the radiator type (see current sales
documents).
When installing in rooms with bath or
shower facilities: take into account pro-
tective areas according to national instal-
lation standards (in Germany DIN VDE
0100-701). Also follow all local regulations.
Note: The manufacturer does not approve the
installation of products in protective area 1.
Recommendation according to IEC stan-
dard 60335-2-43: To prevent any risk to
small children, install the radiator so that the
bottommost cross tubes are situated at least
600 mm above the floor.
Ensure that when the valve in the supply flow
is closed, the water in the radiator can expand
up to the expansion vessel.
When installing a valve in the return, ensure
that the valve can only be actuated with a tool
to prevent authorized blocking.
Complaint
Contact the manufacturer.
Disposal
Packaging should be recycled or disposed of
properly. Observe local regulations.
Technical features

Directions for installation
Number of attachment points
Depending on the dimensions and require-
ments class (AK according to VDI 6036), use
additional fastening material (see Table p. 6,
drilling dimension H
).
B
The number of attachments points was deter-
mined and checked on vertically cored light-
weight brick T14.
For additional electric operation:
Observe
the
electric
set
instructions.
Ensure that a correctly installed mounting box
or wall socket (230 V, 16 A fuse) is available
within the reach of the cable.
The electrical connection at the wall must be
freely accessible and must not project out to the
surface of the radiator or the control unit.
The radiator must not be attached directly be-
neath a wall socket.
For installation in a one-pipe heater:
Use connection fitting with integrated, adjus-
table bypass.
