    • EC Marking directive 93/68/EEC SAFETY INFORMATION These instructions are applicable to the SALUS Controls model stated on the front cover of this manual only, and must not be used with any other make or model. These instructions are intended to apply in the United Kingdom only, and should be followed along with any other statutory obligations.
  • Page 3 Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the thermostat from working properly. RT300 INSTRUCTION MANUAL...
  • Page 4: Features

    Please read the important safety information at the start of this manual before you begin to install the thermostat. The ideal position to locate the RT300 thermostat is about 1.5m above floor level, in a location where the thermostat is accessible, reasonably lit and free from extremes of temperature and draughts.
  • Page 5: Backplate Connections

    • All wiring connections should be securely made, and be firmly gripped beneath the square brass washer on each terminal. The RT300 requires two ‘AA’ alkaline batteries to function correctly. Ensure that the batteries are inserted correctly, paying careful attention to the polarity markings on the battery and next to the battery holders.

  • Page 7: After Installation

    AFTER INSTALLATION After completing installation and powering up the RT300 for the first time the thermostat will behave in the following way: All the indicators on the display and the backlight will be turned on for two seconds. After two seconds, the RT300 will then operate in Normal mode (Normal mode is when the thermostat is displaying the room temperature).
  • Page 8: Operation

    OPERATION The status and operation of the RT300 is clearly shown on the large backlit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). This display allows the user a clear indication of the current room temperature, and the status of the heating system. There are few user controls for the RT300, making this thermostat very easy to operate.
  • Page 9: Reviewing/Setting Set Point Temperature

    The set point temperature will flash to indicate that it can be changed: The temperature will be changed in 0.5°C steps per key press. The RT300 will return to Normal mode if no keys are pressed for more than four seconds.
  • Page 10: Frost Protection

    Please be aware that the Frost Protection mode operates as an additional protection feature but should not be used in place of a correctly installed frost thermostat, which is required to override all other controls in the system. The backlight will remain illuminated for approximately 5 seconds. RT300 INSTRUCTION MANUAL...
  • Page 11: Sleep Mode

    OTHER FUNCTIONS AND CONTROLS Backlight The backlight of the RT300 is switched on automatically whenever any of the keys are pressed.
