This thermostat has a built-in GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter).
The GFCI protects against risks of electrocution caused by a current
leakage. If the leakage current exceeds 5 mA, the GFCI will automat-
ically trigger, thus cutting power to the floor heating system. To indi-
cate the fault, the TEST button at the top of the thermostat will
illuminate (red) and GFCI will flash on the screen (refer to section 7).
If the Test button illuminates and GFCI flashes on the screen during
normal operation, check if the fault has been caused by an external
interference such as a halogen light or an electric motor. In this case,
reset and test the GFCI. However, if the fault occurs again for
unknown reasons, cut power to the floor heating system from the
main electrical panel and have the installation verified by an
electrician.
WARNING: The GFCI does not protect against electrical shocks
resulting from contact with both conductor wires.
6.1 GFCI Reset
To reset the GFCI, switch the thermostat to Off and back to On. The
TEST button light will go off and GFCI will disappear from the screen.
6.2 GFCI Test
To ensure the GFCI is always in working order, test it once the ther-
mostat is installed and test it every month thereafter.
nIncrease the temperature sufficiently to start heating.
oWait for about 5 seconds until the heat intensity indicator ( )
appears on the screen.
pPress the TEST button at the top of the thermostat.
• If the TEST button does NOT illuminate, the test has failed.
Cut power to the heating system at the main electrical panel,
have an electrician verify the installation and, if necessary,
replace the thermostat.
• If the TEST button illuminates, continue to step 4.
qSwitch the thermostat to Off then back to On.
• If the TEST button light goes off, the test has passed. Set the
thermostat back to the desired temperature and ignore the
remaining steps. The test is now completed.
• If the TEST button light remains on, the test has failed. Con-
tinue to step 5.
rSwitch the circuit breaker (at the main electrical panel) of the
heating system to off then back to on.
sRepeat the test. If the test fails again, cut power to the heating
system at the main electrical panel, have an electrician verify the
installation and, if necessary, replace the thermostat.
