DIP Switch Settings
The DIP switches are on the rear of your thermostat and change the temperature accuracy (span) from +/-0.5°C to +/-0.25°C, and the programmes to 5-2 or 24h. Changing the Span DIP Switch (2) may cause your boiler to operate more frequently. The DIP switches are located on the back of the thermostat.
