Test the GFCI

There is a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) inside the thermostat.  It 
is designed to help protect people from possible electrical shock if the floor 
warming system has been damaged.

To make sure the GFCI is operating, test it after it is installed and once each 
month:

1.

  Make sure the thermostat is 

HEATING

.  You may need to increase the 

temperature temporarily.

2.

  Press the GFCI Test button on the side of the thermostat.  A red light should 

show next to the GFCI Test button.  You should also hear a click, indicating 
power has been removed from the floor warming system.  If any of these 
indicators fail, turn off the thermostat and replace it.  Do not continue to use.

3.

  To reset the GFCI, slide the On/Off switch off and back on.  If the GFCI does 

not reset, turn the thermostat off and go to section 4

 “Troubleshooting” 

for 

help.

4.  Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

Thermostat works 

but no heat from the 

system.

1. Check wiring connections.

2. If GFCI is tripped, reset thermostat with on/off switch.

3. Check resistances on floor warming system.  See 

manual for system.

No lights showing.

1. Check wiring connections.

2. Check circuit breaker or other protection “upstream” of 

thermostat.

GFCI is tripped.

1. Check wiring connections.

2. Reset thermostat by switching off/on.

3. Check resistances on floor warming system.  See 

manual for system.

Right light blinking 
on front of 
thermostat.

Floor sensor or air sensor is faulty:

  >  1s on / 1s off : floor sensor fault. Check connections, 

replace floor sensor, or disconnect floor sensor and use 

air sensing.

  >  0.5s on / 0.5s off : air sensor fault. Connect floor 

sensor, or replace thermostat.

3.  Operation

On/Off Switch

1.

  Slide the on/off switch to the upper 

position, turning the thermostat on.  A green 
light will show on the front indicating the 
thermostat is turned on.  If the light is amber, it 
indicates power is applied to the floor warming 
system.

2.

  To turn the thermostat off anytime, slide the 

on/off switch to the lower position.  No heating 
will occur.

Adjust the Temperature

1.

  Turn the dial clockwise to increase the floor temperature.  The light on the 

front will be amber when power is applied to the floor warming system.

2.

  Turn the dial counterclockwise to decrease the floor temperature.

Air or Floor Sensing

During installation, your thermostat should have been connected to a 
floor sensor to be embedded with the floor warming system.  This is the 
recommended method to properly control the system.

However, if the floor sensor was not connected, the thermostat will sense the 
air temperature instead, becoming an air thermostat.
