POSITIONING

• Install the chrono thermostat away from heat sources (radiators, direct sunlight, kitchens) and doors/windows. Mount about 1.5 meters above floor level.

FIXING

• Use screws 0 3.5 mm MAX – maximum head thickness 3 mm.
• When fastening, do not over-tighten the screws to avoid distorting the base.

CLEANING

• Use only a damp cloth for cleaning.

INSTALLATION

• Fix the base on the wall and make the electrical connection as shown on the diagram

NOTE: When using the chrono thermostat with the external power supply, the batteries MUST be removed.

• Insert the batteries into the battery compartment, respecting the indicated polarities.

CAUTION: Incorrect battery polarity can cause the batteries to leak acid and damage the chrono thermostat, invalidating the guarantee.

• Fix the chrono thermostat on its base as shown in the figure below

NOTE: To disassemble it, proceed in reverse.

BATTERY

The Chronothermostat is provided with 2 battery thresholds: the first threshold indicates that the batteries are low and must be replaced. In this condition, and with the display in the off state, a flashing battery icon will be seen every 5 seconds.

• After touching the Finder button and turning on the display, the battery icon will continue to flash.
• At the second threshold the Chronothermostat turns off, in this condition the flashing battery icon can be seen every 5 seconds (until the batteries completely run out).
• If the chrono thermostat is not connected to the Wi-Fi, after replacing the batteries reset the date and time.

UNLOCKING CHRONOTHERMOSTAT – PIN

• The Chrono thermostat can only be locked using the Finder Bliss application.
• When the lock mode is activated, the Chronothermostat will display a lock icon.
• To unlock the Chrono thermostat you will need to enter the PIN as shown below

Caution

• By entering an incorrect PIN code, the Chronothermostat will display Err for an instant and then propose a re-try.
• After entering the wrong PIN 3 times, the chronothermostat will remain lockedM for 20 seconds with the word Err displayed (the display will turn off after 5 seconds to reduce battery drain).
• This procedure repeats for any further attempt to enter the wrong PIN.

NOTE

• Removing the batteries will not cancel the lock.
  If you forget your PIN, use code 618 to unlock the product.

PAIRING WITH PHONE

• Download the Finder Bliss application to your smartphone.
• The pairing procedure will be described in the application.
• Turn on Wi-Fi and search for a network
• In the case where the APP credentials were not inserted by the expiry of the timeout, the Chronothermostat performs a RESET of the configuration and the internal Wi-Fi is turned off.

CHRONOTHERMOSTAT Wi-Fi CONNECTION TO THE NETWORK

• After connecting the timer-thermostat to the home network, the update will take place within 4 to 40 minutes, depending on the update time set on the application.
• To immediately connect the chronothermostat to the App, with display off, press the Finder button for 3 seconds.
• Segments will appear to indicate waiting for parameters to be synchronized with the APP.

If the wait for synchronization persists for too long it means that the chronothermostat has difficulty updating with the cloud (via the APP). The problem may be due either to the poor network signal (seen by the Chronothermostat) or to a slow home connection, busy broadband, or slow server response. Battery life depends greatly on connection times. After 20 seconds, if the connection has not occurred, an error message appears (see page 18). If there was a previous connection to the Cloud the chronothermostat will display the last setting received from the server.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Depending on the chronothermostat version, special characters such as “&”!”“.”_”/” may not be detected.

• In this case, replace the router name (SSID) using letters and numbers. Same for the password.

• The chronothermostat connects exclusively to 2.4 GHz networks. In the case of routers covering from 2.4 to 5 GH z it may in some cases be necessary to separate the two frequencies, then name an SSID for 2.4 GHz and one for 5 GHz.

• Wi-Fi signal repeaters may in some cases reduce the BLISS operation. If you have problems, try moving it near the router.

• The router must support WPA2 encryption.

• BLISS does not work on corporate networks (enterprise networks).

• Respect uppercase, lowercase letters and special characters in the SSID and password.

• Remove any empty spaces inserted inadvertently at the end of the data entered.
