Thermostat Wiring - Please Help

Good Day,
I have purchased a relatively cheap analog thermostat recently, but I am struggling with connecting it up.

I have tried several ways with no luck.

The Thermostat has 3 points L1, L2, and P. I have no idea what it represents, but I thought because the thermostat has to go on and off it must be wired as a switch and therefore I did the following: -

Live from plug to L2
Live to Heat Pad from L1
The second wire of the Heat Pad to Neutral.

The Heat Pad does not get warm.

Could somebody please help?
