Instructions

Pre-installed programs

To make life easier and to get the most out of your skylight, your new remote is pre-installed with useful programs ready for use.

  • Indoor climate

    Indoor climate

    Frequent ventilation can significantly improve your indoor climate. This program lets fresh air enter by partially opening the skylight for 15 minutes, 4 times a day.

  • Ventilation

    Ventilation

    Use this program whenever you want fresh air quickly without having to worry about closing your skylights. The skylights will close automatically after 15 minutes and, if it starts to rain, the rain sensor will activate the skylights to close sooner.

  • Sun screening

    Sun screening

    VELUX skylights already block most of the heat, but you can use this program to further prevent your home from overheating. This program activates VELUX blinds during the hottest hours of the day to keep heat out and maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.

  • Good night

    Good night

    Create the best conditions for a good night’s sleep. The Good Night program opens the skylights and lets fresh air in for 15 minutes. After the windows close, blinds are automatically lowered and your room is perfect for sleeping.

  • Good morning

    Good Morning

    Start your day comfortably – let daylight be your alarm clock. Wake up to refreshing daylight as your blinds gradually & silently open to simulate the rising sun... and at a time that suites you.
  • Leaving home

    Leaving home

    Close all windows with a single touch. Choose “Leaving home” when you go out to close all of your skylights.

  • On vacation

    On vacation

    Let VELUX take care of your home while you are away. This program makes it look as if you were home by opening and closing blinds to give the impression that someone is home.
