Can I install it on either side of the radiator?

What is the purpose of the child lock?

Troubleshooting

Device will not connect to Wi-Fi

Ensure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz network, not a 5GHz network, and verify the device is in pairing mode.

Radiator is not heating despite being set to ON

Check that the Open Window Detection is not triggered, or verify the heating mode is not set to 'Anti-Frost' or a low-temperature schedule.

App shows the device is offline

Check your home router and ensure the heating element has not lost its Wi-Fi signal; try power cycling the device at the fuse spur.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: This unit is intended for use with water-filled room or towel radiators. Because it connects directly into the radiator port, professional installation or a competent DIY approach is recommended to ensure a proper, leak-free seal. The unit can be oriented for left or right-hand entry.

Compatibility: Ensure your radiator has a compatible bottom port connection and is water-filled. The smart functions operate via the Tuya Smart app on a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network.

Care: To maintain the device, wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the IPX4 splash-resistant casing. Periodically check the app for firmware updates to ensure optimal performance and connectivity.
