When you adjust the temperature manually in the tado° app, this Manual Control overrides the Smart Schedule for the period you select.

Adjusting the duration of Manual Control for the Smart AC control

  1. On the Home Screen, select the room you wish to control.

  2. Select the upper part of the screen to set the desired temperature, fan level, swing, or mode.

  3. Select the tick in the top right-hand corner of the screen to confirm the change.

  4. Move the horizontal slider from left to right to set how long you want the manual change to last.

Duration settings

On the horizontal slider, you can choose any of the following options to control the duration of your Manual Control:

  • Timer: This lets you specify a timespan of up to 12 hours for Manual Control to stay active. When you set the timer, tado° ignores all Smart Schedule and Geofencing settings until Manual Control ends.

  • Until next time block: The settings remain active until the beginning of the next time block in the Smart Schedule.

  • Until you cancel/Until you resume schedule: The settings remain active until you change them in the app. This is best if you want to keep a certain setting for a longer period. When you set tado° to Until you cancel/Until you resume schedule, tado° ignores all Smart Schedule and Geofencing settings until you end Manual Control.

  • If you wish to end Manual Control and allow tado° to follow the Smart Schedule, simply tap the Cancel button.
