6.2 Storage

If storing the device for an extended period, unplug it and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Bearware Digital Thermostat Plug, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • No Display:
    • Ensure the thermostat is securely plugged into a working power outlet.
    • Check if the power outlet itself is functional by plugging in another device.
  • Incorrect Temperature Reading:
    • Ensure the thermostat is not placed near heat sources (e.g., direct sunlight, appliances) or cold drafts, which can affect its sensor.
    • Allow some time for the sensor to stabilize after initial plug-in or relocation.
  • Appliance Not Switching On/Off:
    • Verify that the thermostat is in the correct operating mode (heating or cooling) for your appliance.
    • Check that the set target temperature is appropriate for the desired action (e.g., for heating, set temperature higher than room temperature).
    • Ensure the connected appliance is switched on and functioning correctly.
    • Review your programmed ON/OFF times if using timer mode.
  • Buttons Unresponsive:
    • Try unplugging the device from the wall outlet for a few seconds and then plugging it back in to reset it.

If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact customer support.
