Scope of delivery
1 SPARmatic Zero radiator thermostat
1 user manual
3 adapters
Application as directed
By purchasing the SPARmatic Zero radiator ther-
mostat you own a programmable radiator thermo-
stat which can be used for temperature regulation
in enclosed rooms. It ts to all common thermostat
valves (possibly with an adapter) and can contribu-
te to a reduction of heating energy.
Please use the thermostat only for this purpose.
3 – Inserting / replacing batteries
When opening the
battery compartment,
please proceed as
shown in the illustrati-
on. The compartment
is difcult to open and
therefore not acces-
sible to children.
Attention:
Never recharge batteries, danger of explosion! Do
not short-circuit batteries! Do not disassemble bat-
teries. Keep them away from children. Immediately
call the doctor if a battery is swallowed. If needed
clean the battery and the contacts before using
them. Dispose empty batteries directly because of
a higher danger of leakage! Keep batteries away
from extreme warming - danger of leakage! Avoid
contact with skin, eyes and mucosa. When getting
in touch with battery acid instantly irrigate the af-
fected parts with clear water and call the doctor.
Use only batteries of the same kind. Do not apply
used and new batteries together. Dispose the bat-
teries if you will not use the thermostat for a longer
period. Don‘t use accumulators! Ensure that
the polarity is correct!

tically requests entry of date and time.

Changing date and time
SPARmatic Zero automatically switches from day-
light saving time to winter time. Nevertheless, if you
want to correct time and date in running operation:
Press the button PROG for 2 seconds. Then adjust as
described above.
1 – Function SPARmatic Zero
SPARmatic Zero has 2 control times:
comfort temperature (factory setting 21°C)
economy temperature (factory setting 16°C)
In automatic mode SPARmatic Zero changes bet-
ween these two temperatures according to the time
programme that has been set:
heating time: heating to comfort temperature
economy time: reduction to economy temperature
Heating and economy times are specied via the
adjustable time programme. It is possible to set 8
switch points (4 heating and 4 economy times) per
day at the most. SPARmatic Zero has the following
factory preset:
1st heating time starts at 07:00
1st economy time starts at 22:00
5 – Installation
Select an adapter if necessary:
Adapters are required for some valve types. Pri-
or to mounting, select the appropriate adapter as
shown in the adapter table. If you require an adap-
ter: Push the adapter onto the valve and turn it until
it noticeably clicks into place. If the adapter is tted
with a screw, tighten the adapter with the screw.

and MANU-mode
5 button – set comfort and economy

6 button PROG – set the time programme
7 button or – adjust temperature and time
SPARmatic Zero can be easily mounted on all
common valve bodies. It can be installed without
grime and water spots, because the heating water
circuit is not interrupted.
Loosen the fastening of the old thermostat head,
pull the thermostat head off of the valve. The inst-
ruction is shown on the display. Since SPAR-
matic Zero has already moved into the ON position
while date and time were programmed it can be
quickly and easily mounted without any trouble.
Screw the union nut until the device is rmly xed
on the valve body. For possible later installations
move the valve to ON with the button . This faci-
litates the installation.

6 – Mounting
Press the button and SPARmatic Zero will start
to adapt. The device will adapt itself to the stroke
of your valve body. To do this the valve will now be
opened and closed several times to store the end
points. In some cases this process can take a few
minutes. During this adaptation process will
be shown on the display. After successful adapta-
tion it returns to normal mode. Should adaptation
become necessary again, e.g. if your radiator does
not cool down in OFF Position, please press the
button > 2 seconds until adaptation begins.
7 – Setting the time programme
In the time programme you can set 4 heating times
and 4 economy times for each weekday.
In the time programme the week days are numbe-
red from 1– 7.
The week programmes are dened as:
1–5 = same programme from Monday to Friday
1–6 = same programme from Monday to Saturday
1–7 = same programme from Monday to Sunday
(1 = Monday to 7 = Sunday)
Adjusting temperature to local conditions /
temperature-setup
Often the perceived temperature signicantly dif-
fers from the set thermostat temperature, for ex-
ample due to spatial distance to the radiator. For
this reason you should execute a temperature set
up that is specically adapted to your room situati-
on. To do this press the button PROG for 5 seconds.
The degree setting will ash on the display.
Now set up the desired temperature increase on
the SPARmatic Zero unit. Conrm your entry with
the button PROG . The temperature shown on the
display does not change!
11 – Cleaning and used devices
Cleaning
To clean the thermostat use only a dry or lightly
wet cloth. Avoid chemical solvent – it can probably
damage the device.
Used devices
Do not throw old devices and packaging into the
household waste. They can be recycled. You re-
ceive further information at your local government.

12 – Help
Problem Cause Solution
Batteries do not have
enough power.
Replace batteries.
Heating
element
does not
cool down.
Valve does not close
completely. It may be
that the closing point
of your valve seat has
shifted.
Adapt again (see
“Adapting”) Move the
valve stem several times
by hand, it may be that
adaptation is impossible
because your valve
is calcied or the seat
no longer performs its
function.
Heating
element
does not
warm up.
Is the boiler water
temperature O.K.?
Valve does not open,
is it calcied after
the summer pause /
heating pause?
Adjust the temperature of
the boiler water.
Remove the SPARmatic
Zero, move the valve
stem back and forth per
hand or with a tool.
No adaptation
possible.
Is the installation OK?
Valve stroke is too
short.
Open and close the
valve several times
manually or replace the
batteries.
Motor movement is
not possible.
Does the valve stem
move freely?
Area OFF: 8°C, freeze-protection is active
Area ON: valve is completely open
Tipp: You obtain maximum energy efciency with
an economy temperature that is approximately 5°C
below the comfort temperature.
9 – Lost in the programme?
Push the button AUTO
MANU . SPARmatic Zero will then
ignore the last entry and will return to AUTO mode.
10 – Additional setting possibilities
Window function
If you open a window and consequently the tem-
perature drops signicantly, SPARmatic Zero
will automatically close the heating valve in order
to save energy. In this case the display will show
. After 10 minutes SPARmatic Zero will resume
normal operation.
Freeze protection function
If the temperature drops below 6°C, then SPAR-
matic Zero will open the valve until the temperature
again rises above 8°C. This prevents the radiators
from freezing.
Calcication-protection function
To prevent radiator valves from calcifying, SPAR-
matic Zero is submitted to a calcication protection
programme once a week on Friday mornings.
