5. Operating Instructions
Once installed and the heating system is filled and bled, the radiator is ready for operation. The thermostatic head controls the room temperature.
5.1 Thermostatic Head Operation
The thermostatic head allows you to set the desired room temperature. It has 5 adjustable levels and a frost protection setting.
- Setting Range: 0-30 °C
- Frost Protection: Adjustable to 6 °C (indicated by a snowflake symbol)
- Adjustable Levels: 5 levels for precise temperature control.

Rotate the head to select your desired temperature. The frost protection setting will activate the radiator if the room temperature drops below 6 °C, preventing pipes from freezing.
6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
The powder-coated steel finish of the radiator is designed for easy cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
6.2 Bleeding the Radiator
If the radiator is not heating evenly or you hear gurgling noises, it may contain air. Use the provided bleed valve (1/2 inch) to release trapped air. Place a cloth or container beneath the valve to catch any water. Turn the valve slowly until air escapes, then close it once water starts to flow steadily.
7. Troubleshooting
- Radiator not heating: Check if the thermostatic head is set correctly. Ensure the main heating system is operational. Check for trapped air (bleed the radiator).
- Uneven heating: Bleed the radiator to remove trapped air. Ensure the system pressure is adequate.
- Leaks: Immediately shut off the water supply to the radiator and contact a qualified professional.
