Step 1

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 insert new batteries.

Now the hub needs to get ready to add the device.

The Doctor will search for the new device

Step 3

Ensure the screen of the Room Thermostat is facing away from you.

Press the 'chain' link button above the battery compartment 3 times in quick succession.

Turn over to read the screen, which should be showing a circling LEDs.

On success, the Room Thermostat will show 'INC' and will have been assigned a number, write this number on the side of the device.

If you have excluded or factory reset the device previously, it will re-add with a new, different number. If it has the same number as before the reset, the device was not successfully excluded/factory reset.
