Storage Heater Operation (Dimplex Xl18N?)

[NoNuts]

I'm OK with the two dials on top edge (input & output).

It has "Heatstore" printed on front panel

But these ones have a 3rd dial (1-6?) on the lower RH side panel. 

The panels are beige/grey so I'm guessing around 20 years old .

Anyone know what this 3rd dial is about?

It's a single supply (no daytime circuit) heater. 

I can't find an explanation on the Dimplex Website. 

Ta in advance

Its not Dimplex its Heatstore, so maybe looking on the Heatstore web site is a good idea.  :innocent

Not 100% sure but on the new ones its automatic, so if its mild it does not take full charge depending on air temp.

Yours may be adjustable so if its set to say 5 and the weather turns mild and you have the input set to max it won't take it.

Best call them, the number is on the web site.

I'll pop back and have another look at the model number. 

Even looking at Heatstore leaflets/diagrams, my mystery 3rd dial doesn't seem to be revealed. 

Thanks for the tip.

As I said I think the early ones had the manual dial, the new ones are automatic and work in conjunction with the input controller.

However i would give them a call to confirm.
