Description
The management is automatic (performance
and compressor speed are managed automati-
cally based on the temperature required by the
user and on the current temperature - the timer
is set for a continued function of 4 hours, after
which the Cool Top RTE 16 goes off automati-
cally). You can modify the timer with the P1 pa-
rameter - see chapter 4.3
This corresponds to the highest power setting
of the Cool Top RTE 16 (highest performance

can set the number of hours between 1 and 99
by using the TEMPERATURE (+ / -) buttons.
Each push on the (+ / -) buttons corresponds to
the increase or decrease of the ventilation
speed: you can choose between 6 different lev-
