Yes, the R3 element features manual control override directly on the element itself, allowing for basic adjustments and boost functions.
This feature detects a sudden drop in room temperature, assuming a window or door has been opened, and temporarily pauses heating to save energy.
The automatic frost protection activates if the temperature drops to approximately 7°C, gently heating the element to prevent the water inside from freezing.
Check both the central heating system and the electrical supply to the element. Ensure the timer settings are correct and the remote control has active batteries. Verify that the room temperature is below the set point and that the open window detection is not active.
Ensure the remote control is within range of the element and has functional batteries. Check for any obstructions between the remote and the element. Try the manual override controls directly on the element.
Ensure all valves are fully tightened. If leaks persist, it may indicate a need for professional plumbing adjustment or replacement of valve seals.
Consult the R3 element manual for specific error code meanings and recommended actions. Common solutions may involve resetting the unit or checking power supply.
Double-check the programmed schedule via the remote control. Ensure the correct day and time are set on the element. Confirm that the unit is not in manual override mode.
