6. Operation

6.1 Setting the Temperature

To set the desired room temperature, rotate the temperature dial on the front of the thermostat. The scale indicates temperatures from +5 °C to +30 °C. Turn the dial clockwise to increase the temperature setting and counter-clockwise to decrease it.

6.3 Indicator Light

The indicator light illuminates when the thermostat is calling for heating or cooling, indicating that the system is active.
