1. Introduction
The Honeywell Home T3R is a modern, fully programmable wireless thermostat designed for optimal user comfort and energy efficiency. It automatically controls the time programming and temperature for heating systems in homes and apartments. Featuring an advanced self-learning TPI algorithm, the T3R ensures maximum boiler control efficiency, contributing to energy savings.
This thermostat offers precise temperature control and is easy to use, making boiler operation more efficient. Its contemporary design includes a backlit display for clear visibility and large, user-friendly buttons. The simple programming procedure facilitates both installation and subsequent use.
The T3R system consists of a thermostat unit and a wireless receiver, allowing for completely wireless installation of the thermostat unit. The thermostat can be placed anywhere in the home, including on a tabletop stand, while the receiver connects directly to the boiler, eliminating wires between the thermostat and the boiler.

3. Setup and Installation
3.1. Battery Installation
The thermostat unit is powered by 2 AA alkaline batteries (included). To install the batteries, carefully open the battery compartment cover located on the back of the thermostat. Insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-), then close the cover securely.
3.2. Thermostat Placement
The wireless design allows flexible placement of the thermostat. For optimal performance, place the thermostat in a central location within the heated area, away from direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources (e.g., lamps, televisions) that could affect temperature readings. A tabletop stand is provided for convenient placement.

3.3. Wireless Receiver (Relay Box) Connection
The wireless receiver connects directly to your heating system (e.g., gas boiler, combi boiler, heat pump). This connection typically involves 24-230V On/Off or OpenTherm systems. It is strongly recommended that the installation and wiring of the wireless receiver to your heating system be performed by a qualified electrician or heating engineer to ensure safety and proper functionality.
3.4. Initial Pairing
The thermostat and receiver units are typically pre-paired at the factory. If re-pairing is necessary, refer to the detailed instructions in the included manual for the specific pairing procedure.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1. Display Overview
The large backlit digital display shows current and target temperatures, along with useful mode and status icons for easy readability.
4.2. Adjusting Temperature
Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the thermostat to manually adjust the desired temperature. The thermostat will then work to maintain this setpoint.
4.3. Programming Schedule
The T3R allows for 7-day programmable scheduling. You can configure up to 6 independent heating periods per day. A pre-configured schedule is included for convenience, and the thermostat features automatic time adjustment. Refer to the detailed manual for step-by-step programming instructions.
4.4. ECO Mode and TPI Learning
The thermostat includes an ECO mode for energy saving. Its optimized TPI (Time Proportional & Integral) self-learning algorithm helps reduce energy waste by intelligently controlling the boiler to maintain the desired temperature with maximum efficiency.
5. Maintenance
5.1. Battery Replacement
The thermostat operates on 2 AA batteries. When the battery level is low, an indicator will appear on the display. Replace the batteries promptly to ensure continuous operation. Use high-quality alkaline batteries for best performance and longevity.
5.2. Cleaning
Clean the thermostat's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these can damage the device.
6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Thermostat display is blank | Dead batteries | Replace the 2 AA batteries. |
| Heating system not responding | No power to receiver, receiver not paired, or wiring issue. | Check power to receiver. Re-pair thermostat and receiver if necessary (refer to manual). Verify wiring connections (consult a professional if unsure). |
| Incorrect temperature reading | Thermostat placed near heat source/draft, or calibration needed. | Relocate thermostat away from interfering sources. Check manual for temperature calibration options. |
| Programming issues | Incorrect settings or user error. | Review the programming section in the manual carefully. Reset to factory defaults if needed and reprogram. |
