Pack Contents

Safety Information

• The 6iE must be installed by a qualified electrician. It requires a permanent 230 V AC supply from a 30mA RCD or RCBO protected circuit in accordance with the current edition of the BS7671 Wiring Regulations.

• Isolate the 6iE from the main supply throughout the installation process.
  Ensure that wires are fully inserted into the terminals and secured, free strands should be trimmed, as they could cause a short-circuit.

• Install the 6iE in an area with good ventilation. It should not be beside a window/door, in direct sunlight, or above another heat-generating device (e.g. radiator or TV).

• Ensure the distance from your router to the 6iE is not excessive. This will ensure the wireless connection is not subject to range issues once installed.

• For bathroom installations, the 6iE MUST be mounted outside of Zones 0, 1, and 2. If this is not possible then must be installed in an adjacent room, controlling the rooms using a remote sensor(s).

• The 6iE and its packaging are not toys; do not allow children to play with them. Small components and packaging present a risk of choking or suffocation.

• The 6iE is suitable for indoor use only. It must not be exposed to moisture, vibrations, mechanical loads, or temperatures outside of its rated values.

• For safety and licensing reasons (CE/UKCA), unauthorized change and/or modification of the 6iE is not permitted.

Step 1 – Installation

Isolate the 6iE supply from the mains supply.

Unclip the display from the power base.

Release the display as shown.

Install a 50 mm deep electrical back box in your preferred thermostat location. Pull wires (heater, supply, and sensor(s) through the backbox and complete terminal wiring.

Step 2 – Wiring Connections

WARNING!
The 6iE must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the current edition of the BS7671 Wiring Regulations. Wire the 6iE using the diagram above and the heater-type wiring information below.

NOTE: For loads above 10 A, the conductor wire gage should be at least 2.5mm²

Step 5 – Add Location and Room

The heating App will guide you through the setup of your 6iE. You will have to set up your house location and then the room within which your new 6iE is located.

Location
A location needs to be set up before a room can be configured and the 6iE device registered. Creating a location is user-friendly and easy to follow, it is advised to have details of your current energy tariff and pricing to hand, as these will be required if you wish to use the energy monitoring features.

Room Setup
With a location now set up, the next step is to register a room in which your 6iE is located. This is the heating zone your thermostat will control. Ensure you set the correct System Type and Wattage of heaters connected.

NOTE: If an external relay or contactor relay has been installed please set System Type as Electric + Relay.

Welcome to the 6iE

Getting Started

How to quickly change the temperature
Use the slider or press the +/- icons to change your target temperature.
If in “Program” mode this will set a temporary override until your next heating period.
If in “Manual” mode this will set a fixed target temperature.
Once the target temperature is set above the current floor/air temperature the heating indicator will appear.

How to quickly change mode
Mode select allows you to quickly change from program, manual, or holiday modes. You can also switch “Frost Protection” on or simply switch the “Heating Off” from here. Frost protection will ensure that the floor/air temperature does not drop below 7.0°.

Heating
How to set a program
Setting a “Program” allows you to set comfort temperatures at set times throughout the day. Days can be programmed individually, all days the same or weekdays as a block and weekends as a block, the choice is yours.

To “Select additional days” press the days of the week and the squares will be highlighted in white as shown and will follow the programmed heating schedule.

Once you are happy press “Accept” to save the heating schedule.
NOTE: For tailor-made preset heating schedules for different room types press the three dots “…” on the weekly schedule page.

Setback Temperature
The “Setback” temperature is a lower energy-efficient temperature when outside of a heating period.

Heating
How to set into Manual Mode
Setting into “Manual” mode allows you to set a fixed target temperature for the thermostat to achieve. The thermostat will continue to maintain this temperature until another operating mode or temperature is selected.

Heating
How to set into Holiday Mode
“Holiday Mode” allows you to override your schedule with a lower fixed temperature over a set time to save energy.

How to switch “Heating Off”
This will switch the heating off until you cancel it by pressing “Heating Off” on the home screen or going into mode select and pressing the “Heating Off” slider.

Energy Monitor

How Energy Monitor works
The 6iE learns how you use your system and how your house reacts to heating and weather. Energy monitoring will show the amount of energy consumed over a certain time period. This will be calculated through system power multiplied by efficiency and run time.
You will need to enter the power of your system, and in some cases, the efficiency.
If you do not know these, speak to your installer or system manufacturer.

Changing the Power Settings
If you have entered the wrong system power during setup, it can be changed in Energy
Monitor; Power Settings.

SmartGeo

How SmartGeo works

SmartGeo is a unique technology developed by Warmup and built into the MyHeating App that uses an advanced algorithm to understand the most efficient heat settings for your home.
Working automatically; it learns your routines and location through background communication with your smartphone and lowers temperatures when you are away, only rising them up to your ideal comfort temperature in time for your arrival home.
Smartgeo will operate when the thermostat is in the program or manual run modes. It is turned off by default. Use the MyHeating App to switch SmartGeo on.

Settings

The windows open detection feature is designed to switch off heating to save energy when the thermostat detects that a window or door has been opened and, the outside air temperature is significantly below the indoor temperature.
