Sites and Zones help you organize and control your compatible products, especially when managing multiple heating devices with Capa Connect.

• A Site represents a location, such as your home, vacation cottage, or other similar places. You can create and link multiple sites to one user account.

• A Zone refers to a specific area within your site, like bedrooms, upstairs, or the kitchen. By grouping products in a zone, you can control all heaters simultaneously. For instance, you can set a lower temperature for the bedroom zone during the day and a warmer temperature in the living areas, as they will be more frequently used.

Wi-Fi heaters are designed to automatically receive software updates, ensuring you always have the latest features and improvements. When your heater is connected to your local Wi-Fi network, it will download and install updates as they become available.

While the heater is updating, its display and buttons may be unresponsive for a short period. Please be patient and try operating the heater again after a few minutes have passed.

• Before scanning for Bluetooth devices, ensure that location services are enabled on your Android phone or tablet. For Android 7+ devices, location services are required to scan for Bluetooth devices and Wi-Fi networks.
• Navigate to your device's Bluetooth settings and remove any entries named "Dimplex" from the list of connected devices. Then, try the process again.
• Dimplex Wi-Fi systems operate at 2.4GHz. If your Wi-Fi router supports both 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands, ensure the 2.4GHz band is activated and selected.
• If the app requests a PIN code during setup, use the PIN found on the label at the back of your heater.

To check your heater's connection status, press and hold all three buttons on the heater control. A light on the heater will start flashing in one of the following colours:

Red light: The heater is not connected to the local network. Try these steps:

• Turn the heater off and on again.
• Move the heater closer to the Wi-Fi router.
• Ensure the Wi-Fi password is correct. You can change the Wi-Fi credentials by going to the zone settings, selecting options for the heater, and pressing "Change Wi-Fi connection." This will prompt you to repeat the Bluetooth setup process for the heater.

Yellow light: The heater is connected to the local network but not to the cloud services. Try these steps:

• Verify the internet connection using a different device, ensuring the network is functional (IE: ensure your Smart Phone is connected to the same network and then google something). Then, turn the heater off and on again.
• If the issue persists, the cloud services might be down. Please try again later.

Green light: Everything is fine, and the warning icon should disappear shortly.

The controller serves as the brain of your heater, and each one has a unique identification in our cloud to keep your data secure. Therefore, when replacing the controller, it's necessary to remove the old product from your account and add the heater with the new controller as a new product.

Follow these steps if you haven't done so already:

1. Remove the product from your Site, Zone, and Account. Go to your zone, select "Remove Product," and confirm.
2. Ensure your heater is connected to a power source and turned on.
3. In the zone where you deleted the heater, tap the settings icon in the top right corner and choose "Add new product."
4. Scan the QR code provided with the replacement controller, not the one on the product. It's a good idea to place the new QR code sticker over the old one.
5. Follow the app's instructions to enable Bluetooth on your product, then tap "Next."
6. Once connected, enter the 6-digit pin code found on the rating label or the product's controller.
7. Choose the Wi-Fi network you'd like to connect to and input the password. (Note: Leaving the room to find the password may break the Bluetooth connection, requiring you to restart the process.)
8. Tap "Next," give your product a name (e.g., "Jane's Room"), and select "Save name."
9. Choose either "Add another" product or "Go to site."
10. Now, your heater should be connected with the new controller.
