Getting started
In order to program the Tempo thermostat all you need to do is slide the Program Slide control from the top position to the bottom position, customizing the program along the way.
If you make a mistake, return the Program Slide control to the previous position and start again. In order to change a setting value, turn the Rotary Control. Pressing the Main Button will accept the value and move you on to the next value that needs setting. The Tempo thermostat has a number of “Installer Settings”. If your thermostat has been installed correctly and is working then it is unlikely that you will need to change these again. For additional details see “Installer settings” section. Your thermostat can be set so that the programming is done for “all days the same”, “weekday and weekend” or “7 day”. To change this setting, see the “set time/day” section.
Programming the thermostat
To program your thermostat all you need to do is move the Program Slide control on the right-hand side of your thermostat from top to bottom. The table below will explain what you can do at each step.
Set Time /Day | ![]() |
Turn the Rotary Control to change the current clock time. Once the clock time has been set, press the Main Button, you will now be able to set the day of the week. Turn the Rotary Control to select the correct day.
Your thermostat will by default allow you to set a weekday and weekend program (5-2d). If you would like to set “all days the same” (1d) or “7 day” programs (7d) then hold the Main Button for 5 seconds whilst in the set time/ day slide position. Once in this mode, turning the Rotary Control will allow you change this setting. Push the Main Button or move the Program Slide to accept the value.
Once you have set the time and day, move the Program Slide to the next position to accept the value. |
SET TIMING | ![]() |
When in any of these positions you can set the start time for “morning” (1), ”day” (2), ”evening” (3) and “night “ (4) periods.
The “morning” and “evening” periods will follow the comfort temperature, “day” and “night” periods will follow the setback temperature.
Using the Rotary Control, select the start time and press the Main Button to move to the next day.
If you hold the Main Button for 3 seconds it will copy the start time to the next day.
Tip – If you want to set the thermostat so that it is keeping the comfort temperature all day and only setback at night, then just set the “day” start time equal to the “evening” start time. |
Set Temperatures |
|
Here you can set the temperature which will be used for the comfort and setback temperatures. |
Done | ![]() |
Move the Program Slide control to the lowest position in order to start your thermostat. Heating will not occur if the Program Slide control is not in this position. |
Selecting your mode
Your thermostat can be set to run a program, hold a fixed temperature, and efficiently protect your home from freezing or standby. You can select these modes by moving the Mode Slide control on the bottom of your thermostat
Standby | ![]() |
The thermostat will not come on.
NOTE: The thermostat is still connected to the mains electricity supply and your heating system is not isolated. Always isolate from the mains before undertaking any maintenance. |
Frost Protection | ![]()
|
The thermostat will not let the temperature fall below 41°F (5°C). |
Manual | ![]() |
The thermostat will hold a fixed temperature. Just turn the Rotary Control to change the temperature. |
Auto | ![]() |
In this position your thermostat will run the program you have set. If you would like to Temporarily adjust the temperature, just turn the
Rotary Control. At the start of the next heating period, your thermostat will automatically resume your programming schedule. |
Installer settings
These are settings that should be set by the installer of the thermostat and are unlikely to need to be changed again during the product’s life. To enter the installer setting mode, remove the thermostat from the wall plate. Press and hold the Main Button and, using a pointed device, press and release the Reset Button on the back of the thermostat. After 5 seconds release the Main Button on the front of the thermostat.
Once in the installer setting mode, you can turn the Rotary Control to change your selection and press the Main Button to accept your setting and proceed to the next step. Once you have completed all the steps you will automatically exit the installer setting mode.
Installer Step | Setting Configured | Default Value | LCD Example |
1. | Change clock format (12hr/24hr) | “12” | ![]() |
2. | Change unit of measurement (Degree C/F) | °F | |
3. | Change sensor used to target temperature (Floor/ Air/ Regulator)
Note: In regulator mode the thermostat will run for a set number of minutes in a 10 minute cycle. |
Floor | ![]() |
4. | Set Floor Sensor Type
If you already have a sensor installed a sensor for a different model thermostat you can use this setting to change the sensor value and allow the thermostat to function. The possible options are NTC 10K (probe supplied with the Tempo) NTC 12K (probe supplied by Warmup with previous models of thermostat). Note: Warmup can only validate the thermostats performance when used with a Warmup probe supplied with the Tempo. |
10K | ![]() |
5. | Decide whether the thermostat uses Adaptive Learning to pre heat the room for your schedule. | On | ![]() |
6. | Set Overheat limit to protect your
floor.
Please note, the Tempo will only allow you to set a temperature 2°C/4°F lower than the Overheat limit |
30°F |
|
7. | Set an offset value to calibrate the temperature reading of your thermostat sensors | 0°F |
|
Error messages / Troubleshooting
The thermostat is not controlling the temperature | Ensure that the Program Slide is in the run position (lowest point) and that the Mode Slide control (bottom) is in the manual or program positions. |
Floor sensor error | If you see the floor sensor error icon ![]() |
Overheat | If you see the ![]() |
Low battery | The low battery icon ![]() |
Heating starts too early | If your heating is coming on too early, then this may be because the Adaptive Learning function is turned on. This function allows your thermostat to learn how long it will take to heat up to ensure it is the correct temperature at the start of the comfort periods.
See the “installer settings” section of this guide. |
Incorrect calibration | Your thermostat should not need any calibration, however, if you would like to apply an
offset to the temperature settings see the “installer settings” section. |
No mains electricity | If you see the no mains power icon ![]() |
Regulator mode (Reg) is displayed | In this mode your thermostat will come on for a set number of minutes in a 10 minute cycle. The thermostat will not use the temperature for control. Please contact Warmup for additional details. |
HI or LO is displayed | The thermostat will display “HI” if the ambient temperature exceeds 122°F (50°C) and “LO” when the ambient temperature falls below 32°F (0°C). |
