Product Usage Instructions

Installation:

  1. Ensure that the circuit of all related systems is shut off before installation.

  2. Remove the old thermostat from the wall and check if the power supply is 24VAC with a maximum current of 2A. Note: Do not power the WT201 thermostat with maximum current for a long time as it may damage the device.

  3. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat and label them with stickers. It is recommended to take a photo of the connected wires on the old thermostat for reference.

  4. Remove the mounting plate of the old thermostat, making sure that the wires do not fall into the holes.

  5. If using a decorative cover plate, press the wiring backplate to the decorative cover plate to fix them together. This step can be ignored if a decorative cover plate is not being used.
    Note:
    Using a decorative cover plate is suggested to cover the holes left on the wall by the old thermostat and to reduce airflow that may affect temperature measurement.

  6. Pass the wires through the hole in the middle of the wiring backplate and fix the wiring backplate (and decorative cover plate, if used) to the wall using wall plugs and wall mounting screws.

  7. Gently push the WT201 thermostat into the wiring backplate and ensure both parts are securely fixed.

  8. Turn on the systems to check if the WT201 thermostat is functioning properly. Configure the device as needed.

  9. Fix the bottom of the device to the wiring backplate with the fixing screw.
