active.
Explanation:
Each adjusted room temperature is specified as a target
value of the listed times: for instance, as from Monday at
05:30 hrs the installation will heat to a room temperature
of 21 °C, after which it will reduce the temperature to
19 °C as of 09.00 hrs, etc.
Should the factory programme not correspond to your
heating habits, you may adapt the heating programme to
your wishes at any time.
AWARNING!
There is a danger of scalding if the hot water is
too hot. Always open the cold-water faucet first
and then ad hot water as required.
Frost protection
J NOTE!
If the wall-hung gas boiler is active, the frost
protection is active.
Before deactivating the wall-hung gas boiler
installation using the operating switch on the
wall-hung gas boiler, check whether frost is
expected.

5.1 Commission
On commissioning the ERC controller, observe the
extensive instructions in the operating manual:
z for the wall-hung gas boiler;
z for the controller (these instructions).
J NOTE!
Your professional heating specialist will provide
you with extensive information concerning
operation.
J NOTE!
If a hot-water facility has been installed on your
heating installation, then hot water will be
heated with priority. When there’s no longer a
demand for hot water, then the living area will
be heated

6.2.1 Adjustment
During your holiday you might set the room temperature
lower. Let’s assume you have 15 days of holiday: in this
period the room temperature should be 10 °C day and
night.
We reserve the right to make changes based on technical enhancements. Buderus Heiztechnik GmbH • http://www.heiztechnik.buderus.de
6.3.1 Alignment
In order to save energy you can set the ‘heating pause’
if a low room temperature will be adequate for the next
brief period, until the next switching point.
J NOTE!
If the hot-water preparation has been adjusted
to ‘Auto’, during the heating pause also the
heating of hot water will be deactivated.
6.3.2 Cancellation
If you want to prematurely terminate the heating pause:
Press the ‘Pause’ key (fig. 21) and keep it pressed.
Turn the rotating knob anticlockwise, until the current
time is displayed,
or
Keep the ‘C’ button pressed until all numbers on the
display have disappeared,
or
Briefly turn the temperature rotating knob away from
‘Auto’ and then return it to ‘Auto’.

6.4.1 Adjustment
Using the party function you can provisionally extend the
day mode, e.g. up to 01:50 hrs.
J NOTE!
You can set a provisional extension of the
heating period. Once the extension period has
ended. the system will automatically return to
the previous programme.
Press the ‘Party’ button (fig. 22) and keep it pressed.
Turn the rotating knob until the desired end of the
party is displayed, e.g. 01:50 hrs.
Release the ‘Party’ button.
The display will show the blinking time alternated with
the time when the party ends. The room temperature of
the last switching point will be shown.
6.4.2 Termination
If you want to prematurely terminate the party mode:
Press the ‘Party’ key and keep it pressed.
Turn the rotating knob anticlockwise until the current
time is displayed,
or
Keep the ‘C’ key pressed until all numbers on the
display have disappeared,
or
Briefly turn the temperature button away from ‘Auto’
and then return it to ‘Auto’.

6.5.1 General
J NOTE!
The summer/winter conversion is only possible
if an AM 1.0 has been installed and adjusted to
outdoor-temperature-driven heating operation.

Function
The heating system’s water will not be heated further
than necessary for the room temperature.
z Lower outdoor temperature = higher heating
system’s water temperature
z Higher outdoor temperature = lower heating
system’s water temperature or deactivation of the
heating system.
If the room temperature is too low, it can be corrected
using the temperature rotating knob using manual
adjustment (see “Manually adjusting the room tempera-
ture” on page 21).
Function
In principal as in ‘outdoor-temperature-driven heating
operation’. However, the room-temperature activation
also registers the effects of such heat sources as
incoming sunrays, lights, TV sets, etc.
If the measured room temperature (fig. 27) deviates
from the adjusted value, the controller will calculate a
new heating temperature. This allows for an even more
accurate determination of the heating-water tempera-
ture.
A CAUTION!
The heating-body valves in the reference room
accommodating the controller device must have
been fully opened.

or ‘warm water icon’ indicates whether it is the
room or the hot-water heating that is active.
