• Page 4: Safety instructions Read these instructions carefully before you begin the installation. Secure meters will not be liable for any damage or loss arising from incorrect installation or use of the device or components. Take care when installing and using Radbot 1 as radiators and pipes may be hot if your heating is on. Radbot 1 is for indoor use only and must be protected from humidity. Do not attempt to dismantle or modify the device in any way. Batteries should be kept away from small children. We recommend fixing any pre-existing problems with your radiators, valves or pipework prior to installing Radbot 1. The device is compatible with most wet central heating systems that use radiators. Radbot 1 lets you control the heating of your rooms by regulating the flow of hot water through the radiator they are fitted onto. With intelligent in-built logic, it senses the temperature and occupancy status in a room and automatically adjusts the heating to provide you the desired comfort.
• Page 5: Get to know your Radbot 1. Boost button provides 30 minutes heating boost. Control wheel is used to set the comfort level. Temperature dial shows comfort setting on a scale of 1-5. Retaining ring is used to secure Radbot to your radiator valve. Battery cover slides off/on to insert or remove batteries. Battery compartment uses 2 AA batteries.

• Page 7: Removing the old thermostat involves loosening the retaining ring at the base of the valve and lifting off the old thermostat. It is advisable to replace leaking or corroded valves before installing Radbot 1. Consult a plumber if you are unsure how to replace the valves. For fitting the correct adaptor, study the adaptor selection diagram. Different adaptors are provided to enable Radbot 1 to be fitted to the majority of radiators found within the UK and Europe. Ensure the adaptor fits securely around the valve. If necessary, try fitting each adaptor until you find the ideal match. Secure the adaptor to the metal valve by screwing it clockwise or using a small screwdriver to tighten the locking screw. Different adaptor sizes include M30x1.5, M30x1.0, M28x1.5, RA, and RAVL. Securing the adaptor is an important step in the installation process.
• Page 8: Installing the batteries involves securing the correct adaptor on the radiator valve and inserting the batteries as shown. If the batteries are properly fitted, the LED should give one long red flash to indicate the device is active. After inserting the batteries, do not press the boost button or turn the temperature wheel until the device is installed onto the radiator. Using the retaining ring, tighten Radbot 1 on the adaptor while ensuring the temperature dial is facing towards you for easy reading. Hand tighten the retaining ring to ensure the device is securely fixed on the radiator valve. The device is now ready for first use. Pressing the boost button or turning the temperature wheel prior to installation can move the valve plunger from its factory set position, making installation difficult. If the valve plunger is moved accidentally, remove the batteries for approximately 2 minutes, reinsert them, and wait 60 seconds before restarting the process.

• Page 10: Using the Boost function If you are feeling cold, press the Boost button. The thermostat will temporarily increase the temperature to the maximum set point for the duration of 30 minutes. At the end of this cycle, the device will revert to the previously selected set point. Pressing the boost rather than adjusting the temperature dial is the best option for a temporary increase in heat. If the room temperature has already achieved the maximum temperature range supported by Radbot 1, the Boost function will not be activated. If you press the boost by accident, you can cancel it by temporarily turning the temperature dial down. Additional features Valve pin maintenance cycle Frost protection Over time, radiator valve pins can become stuck if not used regularly. Radbot 1 automatically performs a weekly cycle (Decalcination) where the valve is opened fully and then returned to its normal position. If the dial is positioned to the snowflake, the device will be in Frost mode.
• Page 11: Replacing the batteries involves removing the unit from the radiator, replacing the batteries, and repeating the installation procedure. It is recommended that new batteries be inserted within 5 minutes of removing the old batteries to ensure Radbot 1 retains its internal memory of recent occupancy events and heating schedule. Under typical operating conditions, the batteries should last 2 years. A low battery warning is indicated by a continually flashing red LED until the batteries run out. The device requires 2 AA batteries.
• Page 12: Troubleshooting Room gets too hot Replace with new batteries. Radiator will not turn off Check connection and tighten the retaining nut. Radbot 1 will not respond to controls Replace with new batteries. Rapid flashing LED and no other activity Device is malfunctioning due to hardware/software fault. Room temperature control seems strange The device will re-learn over the course of a few days. The device cannot function due to obstruction Check device is not covered by objects and ensure adequate air circulation. Retaining ring has not been tightened sufficiently Tighten retaining ring. Valve is loose on radiator Remove and reinstall Radbot checking valve adaptor if still loose. Pin was not fully retracted during installation.
