Knob and touchscreen gestures

On this page

The result of a control action depends on the screen and the selected item:

Scroll sideways to read all columns.

Gesture	What it does
Turn the knob	Changes the target temperature on the home screen or the highlighted item in a menu. Changes the fan or vane setting when the control is ready for adjustment. Does not open another screen.
Tap, or push the knob	Opens an item, selects an item, or applies a change. On the home screen, a knob push opens the Menu.
Tap the left or right side of the home screen	Decreases or increases the set temperature by one step.
Hold (approximately 0.6 seconds)	Usually returns home. On Home, opens Zones when available. The exceptions below take priority.
Long hold with a confirmation arc	Unlocks controls, forgets a zone, changes a working network, suppresses the Wi-Fi offer, or opens reset confirmation. Early release cancels.
Flick up on the home screen	Opens the Airflow controls.
Slide on an Airflow control	Changes the fan speed or vane angle. Slide up or down on the fan bar or the vertical vane. Slide left or right on the horizontal vane.
Flick down on the Airflow screen, outside the controls	Returns to the screen that opened Airflow.
Swipe left or right on the home screen	Changes the selected zone.

Back returns to the previous screen. Hold the knob to return home.

To hold, keep the knob pushed. Use the knob for hold procedures; touch holds depend on where you touch. A flick is a quick movement, while a slide starts on the control you want to adjust.

A hold can instead cancel a pairing search, cancel an update, close a dialog, or leave Wi-Fi setup. During update verification or restart, a hold does not cancel the update. Follow each screen’s instructions.

Protected actions use a longer hold. Keep the knob pushed until the confirmation arc is complete. Release early to cancel the hold. For Reset Link, the complete arc opens a second confirmation dialog. The arc alone does not erase anything.

The Menu has a ring of controls: Home, Mode, Airflow, Zones, Settings, and Back. Zones shows only with two or more zones. Airflow shows only when the heat pump has fan or vane controls.

On the home screen, tap the center or push the knob to open the Menu.
Turn the knob to highlight a control.
Push the knob or tap the control to open it.

Home returns to the home screen.
