Installation Guide for Danfoss living connect Z Radiator Thermostat

Quick guide from the manual

The Danfoss living connect Z is an electronic radiator thermostat designed for water-based heating systems. Before installation, ensure you have a Z-Wave certified controller. The device requires two AA alkaline batteries (do not use rechargeable batteries). The thermostat must be in 'Mounting mode' (indicated by a flashing 'M' on the display) before it is attached to the radiator valve.

Installation

Follow these steps to mount the thermostat:

1. Mount the appropriate adapter (RA or K) onto the valve.
2. Tighten the RA adapter using the provided Allen key, or hand-tighten the K adapter (max 5 Nm).
3. Screw the thermostat onto the adapter and tighten by hand (max 5 Nm).
4. When a large 'M' flashes on the display, press the middle button to fix the thermostat in place.

Including the device to a network

To connect the thermostat to your Z-Wave network:

• Ensure the thermostat is factory reset.
• Activate 'Inclusion' mode on your Z-Wave controller.
• Quickly press and release the middle button on the living connect Z.
• Monitor the controller and the thermostat display to confirm the status of the process.

Temperature control and adjustment

The temperature is typically managed via the Z-Wave controller, but you can adjust it manually at any time using the buttons on the thermostat. When you change the temperature manually, the thermostat sends a message to the controller, which then synchronizes other thermostats in the same room.

Re-installation mode

If the thermostat is removed from the radiator and needs to be reinstalled, you must activate installation mode to prevent damage:

1. Press the middle button until 'M' is displayed.
2. Press the button to withdraw the spindle; 'M' will flash.
3. Reinstall the thermostat on the valve.
4. Press the middle button for approximately 3 seconds to fix the thermostat.

Troubleshooting

If the display shows error codes, follow these actions:

• E1, E2, E3, E4: Contact your local service technician.
• E5: The thermostat is not receiving expected replies from the control system. Verify that your Z-Wave controller is running and has the necessary functionality to control the thermostat.

Safety and maintenance

The thermostat is not a toy and should be kept away from children. Do not attempt to dismantle the device, as it contains no user-serviceable parts. If the device is faulty, return it to the distributor. The device must be disposed of as electronic waste.
