| I think the two red levers are the valve open/shut for the ondol floor heating pipes. One for each room. If you want to heat one room only shut off the other valve. Both open = you're heating both rooms. |

| is your floor warm to the touch? If so, switch the valves. if not, don't bother. |

As long as you set the temperature below the current temperature (By just pressing the down button) you're floor heating won't turn on. |
