Recycling of obselete appliances
Appliances with this label must not be 
disposed off with the general waste. 
They must be collected separately and 
disposed off according to local regulations.
The installation, electrical connection 
and fi rst operation of this appliance 
should be carried out by a qualifi ed installer.
The company does not accept liability

box of the thermostat through the trunking (
is
part of the special accessory-set „FT. . set“
).
During and after laying, the heated mats are to 
be stepped on only to the extent which is ab-
solutely necessary, to avoid mechanical damage. 
If necessary, special measures are to be taken 
in this regard, for example wearing shoes with 
rubber soles and placing and moving the requi-
site equipment (tools) on suitable supports.
2.4.3 Electrical connection
Before the electrical connection of the heated 
mat(s), the insulation resistance (> 10 M
Ω),
the continuity of current, and the resist ance 
value are to be measured and documented in 
the rating plate.
The electrical connection of the heated floor 
mat is to be carried out in accordance with 
the connection plan in these installation in-
structions.
If more than one heating mat will be installed, 
the PTC-resistors (cold leads) must be inter-con-
nected in a separate wiring box (
C
) because
there is a limited cross section for it on the 
temperature regulator.
It is absolutely imperative to note the rated 
current of the thermostat!
The maximum allowed power supply, when 
parallel connecting several heating mats, 
amounts to 16 A which is a connected load of 
approx. 3600 W/~230V. 
If the connected load is >3600 W, then, as 
switching-reinforcement a further relay is to 
be installed for the temperature regulator.
The protective braiding of the PTC 
connectors serves to earth the 
heated mats and must be connected.
2.5 First start-up
On the occasion of the first start-up, the floor 
heating is to be heated up briefly several 
times, since cracks in the top covering can 
otherwise arise.
2.6 Handover
Explain the functions of the heated mat and 
the thermostat to the user. Make him or her 
aware of the safety instructions, in particular. 
Hand over the operating and installation 
instructions with a finally adoted floor mat plan 
to the user, as well as the type label. This is 
held to be a guarantee document and must 
be retained.
