DATE and TIME 
On this screen, scroll or tap the Orange Hour wheel or Blue Minute wheel to adjust the date and time on the 
thermostat.  
Switch to the Date Adjust screen and the Time Adjust screen using the green icon button at the right side of the 
screen. Scroll or tap the Orange Month wheel or Blue Day wheel. 
Drag a wheel up or down or tap the top or bottom of the wheel to increase or decrease by 1 increment. 
When the thermostat is first registered and connected to a Wi-Fi router, both the date and time are synced with 
the server (based on the location of the phone/tablet used to connect the thermostat to a router or based on the 
ISP location if a computer is used to connect the thermostat to a router). The time and date are synced at the top 
of each hour automatically, unless the Sync Time To Server option in the SETTINGS > ADVANCED screen is set to 
NO.
