Bosch Smart Home Radiator Thermostat

Introduction

Dear customer,

Congratulations on purchasing your Bosch Smart Home Radiator Thermostat. It will help you to make your home even more energy-efficient and smart because you will be able to set the required room temperature when you are away from home using the Bosch Smart Home App. You will also be able to set the required heating level for individual rooms automatically using a time program. In conjunction with a Bosch Smart Home Door/Window Contact you will be able to have the room temperature lowered automatically when windows or doors are opened. This prevents unnecessary energy consumption. We hope you enjoy your new product, The Bosch Smart Home Team

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The radiator thermostat enables you to easily set the desired temperature of a room to within half a degree by controlling it with an app. Thanks to the thermostat’s built-in sensors, you can therefore quickly set every room to a temperature you feel comfortable at and keep it there. A time-controlled temperature program can also be set for each room. The radiator thermostat detects falling temperatures, for example when windows are open, and adjusts the heating temperature to save energy. A frost protection program is started automatically at temperatures below 4 °C. In addition to this, the radiator thermostat regularly opens the valve to protect against calcification

Intended use

The product is intended only for installation on radiators (including convectors and baseboard heaters) in indoor areas. In order to function properly, the product must be used together with the Bosch Smart Home Controller.

• Follow the safety instructions and the directions in this manual and the Bosch Smart Home App to ensure that the product is set up correctly
