2. Safety Information

Please observe the following safety precautions to prevent damage to the device or personal injury:

• Electrical Installation: Installation should only be performed by a qualified electrician or competent person, in accordance with local electrical codes and regulations.
• Power Disconnection: Always disconnect power to the heating system at the main circuit breaker before installing or servicing the thermostat.
• Voltage: Ensure the thermostat's voltage requirements (3V DC) are met. Do not connect to mains voltage directly.
• Battery Safety: Use only specified AAA alkaline batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries. Dispose of used batteries responsibly.
• Moisture: Do not expose the thermostat to water or excessive humidity.
• Cleaning: Clean the thermostat with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Children: Keep the device out of reach of children.

3. Package Contents

Carefully unpack your thermostat and check that all items are present and undamaged. The package should contain:

• PERRY 1TP TE530B Digital Wall Thermostat
• Mounting screws and wall plugs (typically included for wall mounting)
• User Manual (this document)

Note: 2x 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries are not included and must be purchased separately.

4. Installation

4.1 Choosing a Location

Select a suitable location for your thermostat to ensure accurate temperature readings and optimal performance:

• Mount on an interior wall, approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) above the floor.
• Avoid locations near heat sources (e.g., direct sunlight, lamps, fireplaces, radiators).
• Avoid locations near drafts (e.g., windows, doors, air vents).
• Ensure good air circulation around the thermostat.

4.2 Mounting the Thermostat

1. Disconnect Power: Before starting, ensure the power to your heating system is turned off at the main circuit breaker.
2. Separate Base Plate: Gently separate the front cover of the thermostat from its base plate. Refer to the diagram inside the unit if available.
3. Mark Drilling Points: Hold the base plate against the wall at your chosen location and mark the drilling points for the mounting screws.
4. Drill Holes: Drill holes at the marked points and insert the wall plugs.
5. Wire Connections: Connect the heating system wires to the appropriate terminals on the thermostat's base plate. The PERRY 1TP TE530B uses a potential-free changeover contact. Consult your heating system's manual for specific wiring requirements. Typically, these are COM (Common), NO (Normally Open), and NC (Normally Closed) terminals.
6. Secure Base Plate: Screw the base plate firmly to the wall using the provided screws.
7. Install Batteries: Insert 2x 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries into the battery compartment, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
8. Attach Front Cover: Carefully reattach the front cover to the base plate, ensuring it clicks securely into place.
9. Restore Power: Turn the power back on at the main circuit breaker.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Initial Power-Up and Display

Upon successful installation and battery insertion, the thermostat's LCD display will illuminate, showing the current room temperature and default settings. The 2 1/3 inch display provides clear visibility of all relevant information.

5.2 Setting the Temperature

To adjust the desired temperature (setpoint):

1. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons (or similar controls) to increase or decrease the temperature.
2. The temperature can be adjusted in 0.1 °C increments.
3. The new setpoint will be saved automatically after a few seconds of inactivity or by pressing a confirmation button if available.

5.3 Operating Modes (ON/OFF vs. Modulating)

The thermostat supports two main operating modes:

• ON/OFF Mode: The heating system turns completely on or off based on the temperature differential. The differential is adjustable from 0.2 °C to 1.2 °C. A smaller differential provides tighter temperature control but may lead to more frequent cycling of the heating system.
• Modulating Mode: This mode provides more gradual control of the heating system, often by varying the output or duration of heating cycles. The control period is adjustable from 7 to 20 minutes. This can lead to more stable temperatures and potentially better energy efficiency.

Refer to the detailed settings menu (usually accessed by holding a specific button) to switch between these modes and adjust their parameters.

5.4 Temperature Levels and Anti-freeze

The thermostat offers two main temperature levels, allowing you to set different comfort temperatures. Additionally, an anti-freeze function is available to prevent pipes from freezing in unoccupied spaces by maintaining a minimum temperature (e.g., 5-7 °C).

5.5 Summer/Winter Mode Control

A dedicated control allows you to switch between Summer and Winter modes, optimizing the thermostat's behavior for heating or cooling applications (if connected to a compatible system). This is typically indicated by an icon on the display.

5.6 Temperature Setpoint Lock

To prevent unauthorized changes to the temperature settings, the thermostat features a setpoint lock function. Consult the advanced settings section of the full manual (if provided by the manufacturer) for instructions on how to activate and deactivate this feature.

5.7 Low Battery Indication

When the battery level is low, a 'LOWBAT' indicator or a battery icon will appear on the display. This indicates that the batteries need to be replaced soon to ensure continuous operation.

5.8 Relay Status Indication

The display will show an icon or text indicating the current status of the relay (e.g., 'HEAT ON' or a flame icon when the heating system is active, or 'COOL ON' if configured for cooling).

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

To keep your thermostat in good condition:

• Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use liquid cleaners, aerosol sprays, or abrasive cleaning agents, as these can damage the thermostat.

6.2 Battery Replacement

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as follows:

1. Gently remove the front cover of the thermostat from its base plate.
2. Remove the old AAA alkaline batteries from the compartment.
3. Insert two new 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Reattach the front cover securely.

The thermostat settings are typically retained during battery replacement for a short period, but it's good practice to verify your settings afterward.
