About your new 2 channel programmer
The THR860SWE is designed to work with your existing thermostat, heating and hot water. It can
work automatically, or you can adjust it manually to maintain a comfortable indoor environment while
minimising energy use and costs associated with heating both your home and the hot water you
require.
Features
•Energy-saving design: Automatically activates or shuts down your heating and hot water up
to six times per day to fit your lifestyle while saving energy costs. Each day of the week can be
programmed separately (see pages 812).
•One-touch comfort control: Allows you to override programmed settings at any time by turning your
heating or hot water on or off — or by extending an “on” period by up to three hours.
•Holiday button: Turns off your heating and hot water for up to 99 days while you are away, then
resumes normal operation when you return (see page 12).
•Seasonal clock change: Automatically adjusts the clock for seasonal changes in the spring and
autumn to adjust for standard time or daylight savings time.
•Lifetime memory: Saves your customised settings indefinitely, even if the mains power supply fails.

Press the MODE button repeatedly to select an operating mode.
You can set the Hot Water and Heating modes separately, by
pressing the appropriate button as shown at left. Both work the
same way:
Cont: Heating or Hot Water remains on continuously.
Auto: In this mode the programmer follows a daily schedule for
the Hot Water or Heating, turning each on and off at preset times
during the day (see page 8).
Once: In this mode the Heating or Hot Water is turned on at the
first programmed “On” time of the day, and remains on until the
last programmed “Off” time (see page 8).
Off: Heating or Hot Water remains off at all times.

Operation and Programming
Cost-saving programme schedules
The programmer is preset at the factory to turn off your home heating and hot water when they’re less
likely to be needed. The preset schedules are shown below. To change them, see pages 912. (See also
two alternate schedules on page 25).
To run this schedule (as shown below, or as you’ve modified it), leave the MODE buttons set to Auto.
Y ou can make temporary adjustments at any time (without changing the schedule) by pressing the
EXTRA HOUR or OVERRIDE buttons (see pages 1011).

Advanced features
• Preset programme schedules: The programmer is preset to follow the schedules shown on page 10
(Schedule A) unless you change the settings. However, instead of changing the settings manually,
you can choose either of 2 other pre-configured schedules. Schedule B keeps heating and hot water
on longer if you’re often at home. Schedule C keeps heating and hot water off longer to reduce
energy costs.
• Adjustable time settings: By default, the programmer has 6 time settings per day (3 on, 3 off). You
can reduce this to 4 time settings if desired (see page 23).
• Seasonal time change: The clock automatically changes in spring and autumn to correspond with
changes to and from daylight savings time (see page 22 to turn off this feature).
• Adjustable clock format: The screen can display time in either AM/PM format (i.e., 2 pm) or 24-hour
format (14:00) (see page 22).
• Adjustable backlight: A bright continuous backlight makes the display screen easier to read. You
can change its operation so the backlight always remains off or is lit for only a few seconds after
each button press (see page 22).
• MiniProgrammer option: This special operating mode is designed to compensate for the
inefficiency of some poorly controlled gravity hot water systems, which heat water whenever the
home heating system is on. The MiniProgrammer option blocks some operating modes (i.e., “Auto”
is not available in Heating, and “Off” is not available in Hot Water). (see page 23).
