Heating Mode - Etherma LAVA ARCUS Montage- Und Gebrauchsanleitung

E L E C T R I C A L C O N N E C T I O N
The heater is intended for the fixed connection to a ceiling or
wall socket.
The device is connected to the AC mains system with a pow-
er cord connected and a connection socket on the installation
side.
NOTE
The connecting cable can be extended using a cable of the
SIHF-J3G1.5 mm² type. A direct connection to the device cannot
be implemented. The length of the connecting cable must be
between 1.0 and 1.9 m.
An all-pole disconnecting device with a minimum contact open-
ing width of 3 mm has to be mounted into the fixed electrical
installation in compliance with the installation regulations.

HEATING MODE

The heater is operated by means of direct connection via
switch, via an external room thermostat (eTOUCH eco), or via a
radio receiver (ET-111C) when connected to a radio-controlled
room thermostat (ET-14A). These items can be ordered as ac-
cessories (see p. 8). Please observe the operating instructions
of the respective product.

HEATING MODE
Depending on the thermal insulation standard, you require
a heating power between 30 and 200 W/m² living space. The
LAVA design infrared heating has a very large radiation com-
®
ponent and a very small convective component of the heating
power. For reasons of safety, the maximum surface tempera-
ture is approx. 120 °C, therefore the total power of the devices
is limited. This is the reason why these devices can only be
applied as an exclusive heating in houses with a very good heat
insulation.
The LAVA design infrared heating by ETHERMA mainly heats sol-
®
id objects and, only to a lesser extent, directly heats the room air.
Therefore, these devices are ideal for additional heating. In order
to achieve the same feeling of comfort as with a convection heat-
ing, the room air temperature can be reduced by approx. 2–3 °K.
Each degree that the heating is reduced can save up to approx.
6% of the heating costs, depending on the heating performance
and thermal insulation standard.

ATTENTION: If the mains cable to the device is
damaged, it must be replaced immediately by a
specialist.
The LAVA design infrared heating is additionally switched on
®
and the radiation takes over the task of heating the people in
the room. Depending on the size of the device, the LAVA
sign infrared heating requires a certain time until the operating
temperature is reached. Only then the radiation can take its full
effect.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
The LAVA design infrared heating is designed so that it gives
®
off its heat via the surface in the form of radiation. The device
does not contain any parts requiring special maintenance. In
order to clean your infrared heater, we recommend using a
damp cloth. Please do not use any scouring agents, since they
may leave scratch marks on the surface.
ATTENTION: When you want to clean the LAVA
design infrared heating, the heating device must
be cold!
