Chapter 5 – Using the Remote Control
In addition to the control panel, the IQAir system can be controlled by using the handheld remote control.
The remote control can be used to:
• Switch the system on and off
• Select the desired fan speed
• Activate and deactivate the timer function (Note: Start and stop times can only be set and changed directly on
the system’s control panel)
5.1 Remote Control Elements and Functions
Switching the System On and Off
To switch the IQAir system on with the remote control, press any one of the speed control keys marked with 1 through
6. The system will start at the fan speed of the pressed key. To switch the IQAir system off, press the OFF key.
Switching the Timer On and Off
If start and stop times have been set in the Weekly Auto Timer Menu, it is possible to switch the timer on and off with
the remote control. To switch the timer on, press the Timer Modication key and then the Timer ON key.
To switch the timer off, press the Timer Modication key and then the Timer OFF key.
5.2 Getting the Best Transmission Results
The IR (infrared) receiver of the IQAir system is positioned underneath the control panel cover. In order to get the best
signal transmission, the remote control should be pointed at the control panel when a remote command is being
carried out. Alternatively, the remote control should be pointed at a surface like a wall, ceiling or window, from which
the signal can bounce off in a right angle (90°) to the electronic control panel.
