WARNINGS

• This is a Smart thermostatic valve control that instantly manages the room temperature remotely (via the Bimar Live Smart APP). With the knob you can select: Auto / Manual function, adjust the temperature and activate the Holiday function. The Smart thermostatic valve control is installed on a single radiator with water system, in domestic and similar indoor (-10/+40)°C environments (autonomous and centralized heating systems), according to the methods indicated in these instructions.
• This device intentionally emits and/or receives radio waves for radiocommunication and/or radiodetermination purposes.
• Any other use constitutes misuse and is hazardous. The manufacturer \cannot be held liable for any damage arising from misuse or incorrect or irresponsible use, and/or from repairs carried out by unqualified persons.
• The Smart thermostatic valve control is installed on a single radiator  with water system,in domestic and similar indoor environments (autonomous and centralized heating systems), according to the methods indicated in these instructions.
• Refer to the manual of the model AG12 to associate the Gateway on the APP.
• The Smart control is for M30x1.5 connection + set of fittings for the most commonly installed thermostatic valves (list below).
• The device is not a toy. The device must be kept out of reach of children and people with impaired physical, sensory or mental capabilities and pets. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the device. Cleaning and maintenance intended to be carried out by the user should not be done by children unless they are supervised.

KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing can lead to chemical burns, perforation of soft tissue, and death. Seek medical attention immediately.

• Do not allow children to replace batteries.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -)  marked on the battery and the equipment.
• Do not short-circuit batteries. Do not charge batteries. Do not force discharge batteries.
• Do not mix new and used batteries or batteries of different types or brands.
• Do not heat batteries. Do not weld or solder directly to batteries. Do not dismantle batteries. Do not deform batteries. Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• In case of leak from batteries, avoid any contact with it; in case of contact, wash the affected part with water and seek medical attention.

There are two types of valves: thermostatic and manual (use the figures for reference)

Thermostatic valve

The Bimar smart control is compatible with most thermostatic valves (CaleffiGiacominiDanfoss:RAVL,RA,RAV RMB,ecc), and ring nut connection (M28x1.5).

Manual valve

The Bimar smart command is not compatible. A non-thermostatic, or manual, valve is a simple open/closed (on/off) valve that works like a tap.

INSTALLATION

• After removing the packaging, check that the appliance is intact; if in doubt, do not use it and call in qualified staff. Packaging components (plastic bags, nails, etc.) must not be left within reach of children since they are potentially hazardous; dispose of them in accordance with the current law.
• All packaging elements must be disposed of according to their raw material (see the symbol stamped on each one) and according to the provisions of their municipality. The bag which is unmarked due to its small size, therefore you have to follow the procedures for the disposal of their municipality
• Before each use, check that the appliance is in good condition: if in doubt, call in qualified staff.
• During the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the device, take the necessary precautions so that these temperatures do not cause danger to people and animals.
• The Smart thermostatic valve control is sensitive to the temperature in the point where it’s installed such as: heat sources, direct sunlight or cold drafts, curtains, furniture, radiator covers, shelves and everything that prevents the normal circulation of the air near the radiator. This could jeopardize its correct functioning.
• The device should only be used in a dry, dust-free location.
• Adjust the thermostatic head to the minimum position (5°C) when you decide to change the air in the rooms.
• Avoid leaving the thermostatic head in the same position for a long time (for example in the summer period): it’s sufficient to turn the device’s knob every now and then (about once a month) to the right and then to the left to avoid encrustations and subsequent blockages.
• This is applied to common thermostatic valves easily, without draining the water or intervening on the heating system. No special tools are needed.

DESCRIPTION

Proceed as described and use the figures for reference.

1.  Remove the cover towards the outside (opposite side of the ring nut) in the direction: .
2. Correctly insert 2 batteries (type AA/LR6, 1.5Vx2) paying attention to the polarities (+ and -) marked on the batteries and on the device, also for subsequent replacements.
3. Place the cover on the body so that the words (PUSH↔ PULL) coincide and insert the cover on the body all the way in.

4. After inserting the batteries, the “InS ” symbol will appear on the display, indicating that the motor rod will move inside to the installation position (you will hear a slight buzz during this movement).
5. At the end of this adaptation (no buzz), the message “AdA” will appear on the display.

Installation of the Smart thermostatic valve control on the radiator
A. Connection: M30x1.5: no adapter is required for the installation of the following thermostatic valves: Danfoss-Heimeier-MNG-Junkers-Landis & Gyr (DJocIyr) Honeywell-BraukmannCXentiop-Schl sser-Cornap-Valf Sanayii-Merak Maxiaol-Watt -Winqenroth (Wirofex) -FLB.MAemme -Jaga-Siemens-Idmar54, etc. Turn the knob of the radiator’s thermostatic valve to the maximum position, remove the knob and possibly the seat/adapter on the radiator and then press the stem (C) inwards for a few times (2 or 3), to check the functioning.
Notes: each set has the corresponding abbreviation printed on it, for example: GIA = Giacomini, CAL = Caleffi, etc …

Make sure that the radiator valve is at maximum position 6 or 8.Screw the Smart control ring nut directly onto the radiator valve with your hands, so that the display is facing upwards and tighten properly  with your hands.

B. RAVL Danfoss valve
Insert the RAVL adapter on the radiator valve so that the pins (B) of the adapter match the grooves (A) on the threaded part of the thermostatic valve as far as it will go. Place the adapter plastic ring. Screw the ring nut as previously described.

C. RAV Danfoss valve
Place the pin on the stem. Insert the RAV adapter on the radiator valve so that the pins (B) of the adapter match the grooves (A) on the threaded part of the thermostatic valve as far as it will go. Secure the adapter with the supplied screw and nut.

Screw the ring nut as previously described.

D. RA Danfoss Valve
Make sure letters “I” and “N” are aligned on the radiator valve. Insert the RAV adapter on the radiator valve so that the pins (B) of the adapter match thegrooves (A) on the threaded part of the thermostatic valve as far as it will go. Secure the adapter with the supplied screw and nut. Place the adapter plastic ring. Screw the ring nut as previously described.

E. M28x 1.5 mm
Use the length of the pin according to the brand, as shown in the figure (15/17/19/24)mm.Insert the adapter M28x 1.5 onto the radiator valve. Secure the adapter with the two screws and place the pin on the stem. Screw the ring nut as previously described.

F. Giacomini valve
Correctly insert the adapter onto the valve. Correctly place GIA pin on the stem. Screw the ring nut as previously described.

Using the extension pin Due to the dimensional and mounting tolerance  of the metal valve, the following situations mayoccur:1.When the device is faulty, the following appears on the display: F2.2.The thermostatic valve cannot be closed completely and continues to heat up. Handling method: first use 1.6mm extension pin (1); if code F2 still appears, use 2.6mm extension pin (2).
