OVERVIEW:
The Thermo Call TC3 provides a convenient, innovative way to operate a Webasto heater remotely with the
convenience of a phone call, text message, or use of a mobile app.
A GSM standard talk and text plan and mini size SIM card (25mm x 15mm) are required to operate the Thermo
Call TC3 unit (not included). Any usage charges associated to this service plan are the customer’s responsibility.
The Thermo Call TC3 works in such a way that each command sent or received will use either minutes or text
messages depending on how the user chooses to communicate with their Thermo Call TC3 unit.
NOTE - The Thermo Call TC3 unit does not require or use network data.

FIRST STEP CHANGE THE ACCESS CODE
All Thermo Call devices come with a 4 digit access code to prevent unauthorized use. The first thing to do is create

1. From ANY cell phone with texting capability, text the following string:

For example if you would like the new access code to be 8765 then the text string would look
like:
1234PIN:8765:8765
New access code is now set to 8765
