What is a programmable room thermostat?

• A programmable room thermostat is both a programmer and a room thermostat.
• A programmer allows you to set “On” and “Off” periods to suit your own lifestyle.
• A room thermostat works by sensing the air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached.
• So a programmable room thermostat lets you choose what times you want the heating to be on, and what temperature it should reach while it is on. It will allow you to select different temperatures in your home at different times of the day (and days of the week) to meet your particular needs and preferences.
• Setting a programmable room thermostat to a higher temperature will not make the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on the design and size of the heating system.
• Similarly reducing the temperature setting does not affect how quickly the room cools down. Setting a programmable room thermostat to a lower temperature will result in the room being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.
• The way to set and use your programmable room thermostat is to find the lowest temperature settings that you are comfortable with at the different times you have chosen, and then leave it alone to do its job.
• The best way to do this is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature – say 18°C, and then turn it up by 1°C each day until you are comfortable with the temperature.
• You won’t have to adjust the thermostat further. Any adjustment above this setting will waste energy and cost you more money.
• You are able to temporarily adjust the heating program by overriding or using the temperature hold feature. These features are explained further on pages 16 and 17 of this manual.
• Programmable room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may also prevent the thermostat from working properly.

Installation Procedure

✓ Do

• Mount the thermostat at eye level.
• Read the instructions fully so you get the best from our product.

✕ Don’t

• Do not install near to a direct heat source as this will affect functionality.
• Do not push hard on the LCD screen as this may cause irreparable damage.

This thermostat is designed to be flush mounted and requires a back box of 35mm (minimum depth) to be sunk into the wall prior to installation.

Installation

Step 1
Using a small screwdriver, slightly loosen the screw from the bottom face of the thermostat. You can then carefully separate the front half from the back plate.

Step 2

Optional Settings Explained

• The following settings are optional and in most cases need not be adjusted.
• Temperature Format: This function allows you to select between °C and °F.
• Switching Differential: This function allows you to increase the switching differential of the thermostat. The default is 1°C which means that with a set temperature of 20°C, the thermostat will switch the heating on at 19°C and off at 20°C. With a 2°C differential, the heating will switch on at 18°C and off at 20°C. Condition: Whilst “Optimum Start” is in effect the ‘Switching Differential’ shall default to 1ºC/F.
• Output Delay: To prevent rapid switching, an output delay can be entered. This can be set from 00 – 15 minutes. The default is 00 which means there is no delay.
• Condition: Output delay will not be in effect while ‘Optimum Start’ is running.
• Temperature Up/Down Limit: This function allows you to limit the use of the up and down keys. This limit is also applicable when the thermostat is locked and so allows limited control of the heating system.
• Sensor Selection: On this thermostat, you can select which sensor should be used.
• You can select between air temperature only, floor temperature, or both. When you enable both sensors, the floor sensor is used as a floor limiting sensor and is designed to prevent the floor from overheating.

Floor Temp Limit

When the Floor Sensor has been enabled in feature 05, you can set a floor limiting temperature between 20-45°C, this protects the floor from overheating. (28°C is the default).
Note: ‘Air Sensor Only’ MUST NOT be used to control electric underfloor heating. Floor Sensor or Both should be used.

Optimum Start

Optimum start will delay enabling of the heating system to the latest possible moment avoiding unnecessary heating and ensure the building has reached its desired temperature at the programmed time. The thermostat uses the rate of change information to calculate how long the heating needs to raise the building temperature 1°C.

Rate of Change

Number of minutes to raise the temperature by 1°C.
Note: The user cannot change this feature and is for information only.

Programming Mode

The following program modes are available;

• 5/2 Day Programming – 4 levels for the weekdays and 4 different levels for the weekend.
• 7 Day Programming – 4 levels for each day.

• Non-Programmable – Basic up/down override temperature control.

Daylight Saving Time (DST): is where the thermostat sets the clocks forward one hour from ‘Standard Time’ during the summer months, and back again in autumn, in order to make better use of natural daylight.
Program Type: You can select between 4 or 6 program/comfort levels.
