- Do not block air vents or place objects on the heating element.
- Khipha idivayisi esitobhini sikagesi ngaphambi kokuhlanza noma ukwenza noma yikuphi ukulungiswa.
- Lo mshini awuhloselwe ukusetshenziswa abantu (okuhlanganisa nezingane) abanekhono elincishisiwe lomzimba, lezinzwa noma lengqondo, noma abangenalo ulwazi nolwazi, ngaphandle uma benikezwe ukugadwa noma umyalelo ophathelene nokusetshenziswa kwento esebenza ngumuntu onesibopho sokuphepha kwabo.
- Izingane kufanele zigadwe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi azidlali ngalo mshini.
- The heating element is equipped with overheating protection and automatic temperature limitation. Do not attempt to bypass these safety features.
3. Okuqukethwe Kwephakheji
Qinisekisa ukuthi zonke izingxenye zikhona futhi azilimele lapho kukhishwa:
- Electric heating bar with connection thread (selected power: 300 Watt or 600 Watt).
- Digital thermostat with connection cable and Schuko plug.

4. Ukufakwa
The BERNSTEIN E700W heating element is designed for simple installation into compatible radiators. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified professional if you are unsure about electrical connections or plumbing.
4.1 Mounting the Heating Element
- Ensure the radiator is completely drained and disconnected from the main heating system if it's a dual-fuel setup.
- Carefully screw the heating element into the designated opening of your radiator. Ensure a tight, leak-proof seal using appropriate sealing materials (e.g., PTFE tape or hemp).
- Position the digital thermostat for easy access and visibility.

4.2 Ukuxhunywa kukagesi
- Connect the Schuko plug of the thermostat to a properly grounded 230 V AC, 50 Hz power outlet.
- Ensure the outlet is easily accessible for disconnection if needed.
4.3 Dimensions and Power Options
The E700W is available in different power ratings, each corresponding to a specific heating bar length:
- Ama-Watt angama-300: Heating bar length approximately 385 mm ± 8 mm.
- Ama-Watt angama-600: Heating bar length approximately 630 mm ± 8 mm.

5. Operating the Digital Thermostat
The E700W digital thermostat offers various modes and settings for optimal heating control. The display provides visual feedback on the current status and settings. Control buttons are typically located on the side or front of the unit.
5.1 Ukusebenza Okuyisisekelo
- Vula/Vala: Press and hold the power button (if available) or plug in the device to turn it on.
- Ukusetha izinga lokushisa: Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to adjust the desired temperature. The adjustable temperature range is approximately 7 °C to 30 °C.
- Bonisa Ulwazi: The display typically shows the current time, day of the week, set temperature, and active mode icons.
5.2 Advanced Functions and Programming
The thermostat includes several programmable modes to enhance comfort and energy efficiency. Accessing these modes usually involves pressing a "Mode" or "Menu" button and navigating with arrow keys.
- Imodi Yeviki: Allows programming different temperature settings for each day of the week. Typically, you would set specific time periods and desired temperatures for weekdays and weekends.
- Imodi yamahora angama-24: Enables programming temperature settings for specific time slots within a 24-hour cycle, repeating daily.
- Imodi Yeholide: Sets the heating to a lower, constant temperature for an extended period (e.g., during vacation) to prevent freezing and save energy. You usually set the duration and the desired holiday temperature.
- Imodi ye-Boost: Provides a temporary increase in heating power for a short duration (e.g., 0.5 to 2 hours) to quickly warm the room. This mode is useful for rapid heating when needed.
- Imodi yewindi: Automatically detects an open window (via a sudden temperature drop) and temporarily suspends heating to prevent energy waste. Heating resumes once the window is closed or after a set time.
- Ukukhiya Kokuphepha Kwezingane: Locks the control buttons to prevent accidental changes to settings, especially useful in households with children. To activate/deactivate, usually press and hold a specific combination of buttons (e.g., Up and Down arrows simultaneously for a few seconds).
Refer to the on-screen prompts and button labels for specific navigation and setting adjustments. Due to the variety of digital thermostat interfaces, precise button sequences cannot be provided without a detailed diagram of the specific model's controls. Experiment with the "Mode" or "Menu" button to cycle through options and use arrow keys to adjust values.
