First, remove the Room Thermostat from its backplate using a flat bladed screwdriver.

Place this in the cutout in the underside of the device, before levering the front away.

Make sure that the Room Thermostat is in the same room as the Genius Hub.

Turn the Room Thermostat over, so the screen is facing away from you and pull out the plastic tab to connect the battery, or insert new batteries.

Step 7

Attach the Room Thermostat to a wall in the coldest room of the house if controlling the main source of heating, or attach it in the room that you want to control if controlling an individual zone.

First screw the backplate to the wall in the chosen room. Then fit the Room Thermostat onto the backplate by aligning it at the top and rotating it down to meet at the bottom.

Tips for locating the Room Thermostat correctly:

At chest height (so it measures the correct temperature).
On an internal wall (so it measures the correct temperature and is not affected by being on a cold surface).
Not next to any direct sources of heat (so that it measures the temperature of the zone and is not affected immediately by a heat source in the room).
