*Notice for battery installations:

 Batteries should be replaced at least once per year, but

depending on your settings may need to be replaced sooner.

 Battery failure could leave property without controlled

heating or cooling. Reliance on battery power is not
recommended with prolonged absence from property.

 After installation you can choose to set the

“energy profile” for your GEOTM This energy profile will
determine the delay in GEOTM responding to changes from
the App.

 GEOTM should only be used with lithium batteries.
