4.2 Electrical Connections
Important: Electrical connections must be performed by a qualified electrician. Disconnect power before proceeding.

Figure 4.2: Electrical connection diagrams. This image shows wiring examples for connecting to a boiler (Caldaia) and a motorized valve (Valvola Motorizzata), indicating common (C), normally open (NO), and normally closed (NC) terminals.
The thermostat requires a 3V power supply from two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries. It provides potential-free contacts for controlling heating or cooling systems.
- Terminal 1: Common (C)
- Terminal 2: Normally Closed (NC)
- Terminal 3: Normally Open (NO)
Connect the load (e.g., boiler, valve) to the Common terminal and either the Normally Open (for heating) or Normally Closed (for cooling) terminal, depending on your system's requirements.
5. Setup
5.1 Battery Installation
- Open the battery compartment cover at the bottom of the thermostat.
- Insert two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
- Close the battery compartment cover. The display should illuminate.
5.2 Initial Time and Day Setting
Upon first power-up or after battery replacement, you will need to set the current time and day. Refer to the detailed instructions in the programming section for specific button presses.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Operating Modes
Use the slide switch on the side of the thermostat to select the desired operating mode:
- Automatic Mode (Programmed): The thermostat follows the weekly program you have set, switching between Comfort and Reduction temperatures.
- Manual Comfort Mode: Maintains the Comfort temperature continuously.
- Manual Reduction Mode: Maintains the Reduction temperature continuously.
- Anti-freeze Mode: Maintains a fixed temperature of 5°C to prevent freezing.
6.2 Setting Temperatures

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries promptly to ensure continuous operation. Typically, batteries last for approximately two seasons.
- Open the battery compartment cover.
- Remove the old batteries.
- Insert two new 1.5V AA alkaline batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
- Close the compartment cover. You may need to reset the time and day after battery replacement.
7.2 Cleaning
Clean the thermostat's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
8. Troubleshooting
- Display is blank: Check battery installation and charge. Replace batteries if necessary.
- Heating/Cooling not activating:
- Ensure the thermostat is in the correct operating mode (Automatic or Manual Comfort/Reduction).
- Verify that the set temperature is above (for heating) or below (for cooling) the ambient temperature.
- Check electrical connections to the heating/cooling system.
- Incorrect temperature readings: Ensure the thermostat is not exposed to direct heat sources, drafts, or direct sunlight.
