8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your thermostat, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Thermostat display is blank | No power, incorrect wiring | Check circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections are secure and correct. |
| Incorrect temperature reading | Sensor obstructed, thermostat location | Ensure the thermal hole is clear. Relocate thermostat if exposed to drafts or direct heat. |
| Heating system not responding | Wiring issue, system fault | Check wiring to the heating system. Consult a qualified technician if the heating system itself is faulty. |
