Heating

Your thermostat is one way to control your heating and lets you see what’s going on at a glance.

What do the different modes and symbols mean?

The heating modes you can choose from are:

• Set room temperature and change it at any time. This gives you complete control of your heating.
• Room temperature is set automatically – based on the schedule you set. This saves you money by heating your home only when it’s needed.
• Your heating is off but frost protection will be active (see the section on frost protection for more information).

How to change heating mode – Press to cycle through the heating modes.

How do I adjust my current temperature?
To activate the main display press any of the buttons. From here you can adjust your current temperature by pressing the or buttons. You can adjust your home’s temperature whenever your thermostat is in MANUAL or AUTO modes.
Once happy with your setting leave the thermostat for a few seconds. Your new temperature will be set until you reach the next event in your schedule.

How does frost protection work?
Hive’s frost protection activates automatically to help avoid causing damage to your home when you are away. When the temperature in your home drops very low, frost protection will increase your home temperature up to 7°C.

How to activate frost protection – When you go away for a few days just turn your heating off by pressing until you reach OFF.

How do I set up or change my heating schedule?
Your thermostat can automatically change the temperature in your home according to a schedule you set. To adjust your heating schedule, activate the main display by pressing any button and then simply press for two seconds. The display will change and show EDIT AUTO – now you can update it.

How to edit your heating schedule

1. Press to select AUTO and decide whether you want to schedule each day individually (“7 day” mode) or for the weekdays and weekends (“5 day / 2 day” mode) using and buttons.
   Note: Many people use energy differently at weekends. The 5 day/2 day mode allows you to set an appropriate schedule based on your weekend energy needs, e.g you may be at home all day so may need heating for longer.
2. Press to select DAY and choose the day to edit (e.g. Mon or Mon-Fri) using the and buttons.
3. Each time your schedule changes is known as an ‘event’.
   Press to select EVENT and choose the one you want to edit for this day (e.g. event 1) using the and buttons.
4. Press to select TIME and set the time at which you want your heating temperature to change (e.g. 07:00) using the and buttons.
5. Press to select HEAT and set the heating temperature you want your room to be (e.g. 18.0°C or OFF) using the and buttons.
   That’s it. Once you have set all your events, just leave your thermostat for about 15 seconds and it will save your settings and return to the main display.

Hot water

If you are going away and do not need hot water, you can save energy by switching your hot water to OFF. To do this simply press repeatedly to scroll through the hot water modes is displayed.

Troubleshooting

What does ‘No RF’ on the display mean?
This means the thermostat has lost contact with the rest of your Hive system and can no longer communicate with your boiler. This may be due to loss of power, being moved out of range or it could be due to radio interference. If this happens your thermostat is not able to control your heating or hot water but you can still switch your heating and hot water on and off manually by pressing the buttons on the Hive box beside your boiler.

How do I change the batteries?
LOW BATTS on the display means your thermostat’s batteries are low and need changing for two new AA batteries. If the batteries go completely flat your thermostat will stop working and the message CHG BATTS will appear.

To change the batteries:

1. Press the two buttons on the sides of the thermostat and
   slide it up and off the wall.
2. Remove the batteries by turning the thermostat over and
   pulling the ribbon.
3. Add new batteries, taking care to tuck the ribbon underneath them, and then replace the thermostat on the wall.

Recycling
Your thermostat and receiver should not be disposed of with household waste, as they are electrical and electronic products. Your thermostat also contains batteries, which again must not be disposed of with household waste. Please recycle them, you can check with your Local Authority for recycling facilities in your area.
