1. Installation
- Power Disconnection: Turn off the main power supply to your heating/cooling system at the circuit breaker before beginning installation.
- Mounting: Mount the thermostat on a standard wall box. Ensure it is placed in an area free from direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources that could affect temperature readings.
- Wiring: Connect the power supply (230VAC, 50-60Hz) to the designated terminals. Connect the heating/cooling system wires to the appropriate relay terminals (6A 250VAC contact rating). Refer to the wiring diagram provided in the product packaging for specific connections.
- Optional External Probe: If using an external temperature probe (model SO001SE), connect it to the dedicated terminals.
- Secure Mounting: Secure the thermostat to the wall box using screws.
- Power Restoration: Restore power to the system at the circuit breaker.
2. Initial Power-On and Basic Settings
- Upon first power-on, the LCD display will illuminate.
- Set the current date and time using the touch controls.
- Select the operating mode: Heating (Riscaldamento) or Cooling (Affrescamento).
- Adjust the temperature differential (from 0 to 1°C) if proportional temperature control is desired.
3. Wi-Fi and App Connection
- Download App: Download the official TECNOSWITCH app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).

5. App Control (iOS/Android)
The mobile application provides comprehensive control and monitoring features:
- Remote temperature adjustment and mode selection.
- Creation and modification of daily/weekly programs.
- Monitoring of current temperature and system status.
- Access to advanced functions and statistics.
6. Advanced Functions
- Keyboard Lock (Password): Secure the thermostat's physical controls with a password to prevent unauthorized changes.

- Boiler Block Detection: Monitors the boiler status and can detect potential issues.
- Statistics: View usage statistics and temperature trends.
- Count-down: Timer function for temporary temperature changes.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the thermostat's display and casing with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or spray cleaners directly onto the device.
- No User-Serviceable Parts: The CR035WB does not contain user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open the casing.
- Supercapacitor: The internal supercapacitor maintains programming settings during power outages, eliminating the need for battery replacement for this function.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Thermostat display is blank. | No power supply. | Check the circuit breaker and wiring connections. Ensure 230VAC power is supplied. |
| Heating/Cooling system not responding. | Incorrect wiring; System mode incorrect; Temperature setpoint not reached. | Verify wiring connections. Ensure the thermostat is in the correct operating mode (Heating/Cooling). Adjust the setpoint to be above/below the ambient temperature to trigger the system. |
| Wi-Fi connection fails or disconnects. | Incorrect Wi-Fi password; Router too far; Network issues. | Re-enter Wi-Fi password. Move router closer or use a Wi-Fi extender. Restart router and thermostat. Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. |
| App control not working. | No internet connection; App not updated; Thermostat not connected to Wi-Fi. | Check phone's internet connection. Update the app to the latest version. Verify the thermostat's Wi-Fi connection status. |
| Temperature readings seem inaccurate. | Thermostat exposed to drafts, direct sunlight, or heat sources. | Relocate the thermostat if possible, or shield it from external influences. If an external probe is connected, ensure it is correctly installed and functioning. |
