Installation
WP75-RF installation
Select a position for the WP75-RF that provides easy access to
the unit (it could be used on a daily basis by the user, so the display needs to be clearly visible) and bearing in mind that the maximum distance between the thermostat and sensor is 10 metres.
Prepare the  xing position to provide access for the sensor
cable through the rear of the wallplate.
If the cable is to be surface  xed note that it can only enter
the WP75-RF from the bottom through the positions shown below.

Before attaching the control module to the wallplate set the
DIL switch, located in a recess on the rear of the module, to select whether the WP75-RF will be a 7 day controller or a 5/2 day (weekday/weekend) controller. Move both switches to

the desired position.
Attach the control module to the wallplate by placing the
slots in the top of the module over the lugs on the top edge of the wallplate and hinging down until the slot in the bottom edge of the module locates over the screw attached to the wallplate. Tighten the screw.

What is a cylinder thermostat?
... an explanation for householders. A cylinder thermostat switches on and o the heat supply from the boiler to the hot-water cylinder. It works by sensing the temperature of the water inside the cylinder, switching on the water heating when the temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it o once this set temperature has been reached. Turning a cylinder thermostat to a higher setting will not make the water heat up any faster. How quickly the water heats up depends on the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and the heat exchanger inside the cylinder. The water heating will not work if a time switch or programmer has switched it o . And the cylinder thermostat will not always switch the boiler o , because the boiler sometimes needs to heat the radiators. Cylinder thermostats are usually  tted between one quarter and one third of the way up the cylinder. The cylinder thermostat will have a temperature scale marked on it, and it should be set at between 60°C and 65°C, then left to do its job. This temperature is high enough to kill o harmful bacteria in the water, but raising the temperature of the stored hot water any higher will result in wasted energy and increase the risk of scalding. If you have a boiler control thermostat, it should always be set to a higher temperature than that of the cylinder thermostat. In most boilers, a single boiler thermostat controls the temperature of water sent to both the cylinder and radiators, although in some there are two separate boiler thermostats.

User Instructions
Your programmer
The WP75-RF is a wireless programmable thermostat, designed to control the temperature of the water in your hot water cylinder. Heating water to a temperature which is higher than necessary is wasteful of energy. The WP75-RF lets you heat your water to a temperature you require, just at the times you need it. You can programme up to three ON times and temperatures per day.
It also features a BOOST function, to provide an instant tank of hot water, as well as a Hot Water Available function, which tells you how much hot water you have available in your cylinder.

5 16:00 55.0 5 16:30 55.0
6 22:00 OFF 6 22:30 OFF
Please note: In order to reduce the risk of Legionella infection, it is recommended that water temperature be set to not less than 60°C for at least one event each day.
If you want to change any of these settings you can do so by following the instructions on pages 13-15.
First, follow the steps on page 11-12 to set the correct time and date.
Before you start

Running your programme
To run the hot water programme press the SELECT button.
As you press the SELECT button a bar in the display will move to indicate which RUN mode has been selected.
BOOST
ON OFF AUTO ALLDAY
The four available functions and their meanings are as follows:
ON = the water will be heated continuously to the
highest temperature set for the day shown on the display.
OFF = the water will not be heated at all (unless the
BOOST button is pressed - then the water will be heated to the highest temperature set for the day. When this temperature is achieved the thermostat with revert to OFF.)
Running your programme
AUTO = the water will come on and go o at the
programmed times.
ALLDAY = the water will remain on from setting 1
(1st ON) through to setting 6 (last OFF), at the highest temperature set for the day.
Select the option you require, depending on your circumstances, time of year, etc.
16
BOOST function
Sometimes you may have an immediate requirement for hot water which is outside the set programme.
For instant hot water press the BOOST button.
If the system is OFF when you press BOOST - the water
will heat up to the highest setting of the day and then turn itself o again.
If the system is ON when you press BOOST - the water will
heat up to the highest setting of the day (but only if the current programmed temperature is lower).
Hot Water Available function
Sometimes you may need to know how much hot water there is in your tank. With the WP75-RF a simple ‘hot water available’ function is included.
To see an approximate indication of how much hot
BOOST Function and Hot Water Available Function
water is currently stored press the  and  buttons simultaneously.
The number of horizontal bars displayed indicates approximately how much hot water is available at the temperature shown.
