Heating 

The apartment has electric radiators throughout. The heaters will never allow the apartment to drop below 19 degrees. 

There are switches on the wall next to the radiators to turn the heating on. 

If you wish to increase the temperature you can adjust an individual radiator by pressing enter to set the time you need to boost and then using the up and down arrows select the temperature you want.

Oven

The top oven is controlled by the two dials on the right, the function dial and then the temperature setting.

The bottom oven is controlled by the two dials on the left, the function dials and then the temperature setting.

Please see more details of functions in the manual at the end of the pack.

Hob

Each cooking ring has its own dial to adjust heat, indicated by the diagrams on the right hand side.

Iron and Ironing Board

These are located in the wardrobe.

The Shower

Please allow 1 hour for the water to heat up before using the shower.

The hot water needs to be switched on by pressing the BOOST button.

We recommend turning it on when you arrive.

Press the boost button 5 times until all the lights are showing blue; this will heat the shower for 2 hours

A hot water tank powers the shower. 

It works by heating the water and storing it for later use. 

If the shower is turned on and water used before the tank has had enough time to heat up, the tank will then fill again with cold water and start to heat it, so the process begins again. 

This can be done on a night ready for the morning
