5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Basic Operation
Once installed and paired, the radiator is controlled via the RF chrono-thermostat.
- Power On/Off: Use the designated button on the thermostat to turn the radiator on or off.
- Temperature Adjustment: Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the thermostat to set your desired room temperature. The radiator will heat until the room reaches this set temperature.
- Mode Selection: The thermostat typically offers different operating modes such as Comfort, Economy, and Anti-freeze. Refer to the thermostat's specific manual for detailed mode descriptions and selection.
5.2 Anti-Fog Technology
The XTAL6N features anti-fog technology, which helps to prevent condensation on the glass surface during operation, enhancing visibility and aesthetics.

6. Programming
The RF chrono-thermostat allows for advanced programming to optimize energy consumption and comfort.
- Preset Programs: The thermostat comes with 9 factory-predetermined programs. These are designed for common daily routines. Consult your thermostat manual to select and activate these programs.
- User-Configurable Programs: You can create up to 4 custom programs to suit your specific needs. This allows you to set different temperatures for various times of the day and days of the week.
- Programming Steps:
- Access the programming menu on the thermostat.
- Select a program slot (for user-configurable programs) or choose a preset program.
- For custom programs, define the desired temperature for each hour segment of the day.
- Repeat for each day of the week as needed.
- Save and activate the program.
Detailed programming instructions are provided in the separate RF chrono-thermostat manual. It is recommended to familiarize yourself with that document for full functionality.
