IMPORTANT
The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled FUEL SWITCH
Batteries must be installed for programming and
operating the thermostat and heating/cooling
system.
(
see Fig. 9) is factory set in the F position. This is the correct
setting for most systems. If you have an electric heat system,
set the switch to E. In systems with the G terminal connected,
the E setting turns on the fan immediately with heating or
cooling.

. Make sure the thermostat is set to the Off position.
. Use a coin to remove the battery door (see Fig. 10).
. Install the new batteries as shown, making sure positive
and negative terminals are oriented correctly (see Fig. 11).
. Replace the battery door.

When the batteries are running low, a bAt Lo indicator will
flash for one to two months before batteries run out
completely. Replace the batteries as soon as possible after
the indicator starts flashing. If the batteries are not replaced
when the bAt Lo indicator is flashing, the indicator eventually
stops flashing. When the batteries are almost completely
dead, bAt Lo will stay on without flashing, indicating that the
thermostat and heating/cooling system have stopped working.
The thermostat will not function after the batteries are
completely dead, and the bAt Lo indicator disappears, leaving
a completely blank display.

To remove the batteries, press down on the left ends. When
the new batteries are installed within 20 to 30 seconds of
removing the old ones, the thermostat does not have to be
reprogrammed. If the display is blank, the batteries are dead
or incorrectly installed and the thermostat has to be
reprogrammed. See Owner’s Manual for reprogramming
instructions.
Adjust System On-Time as Required
The thermostat on-time is factory set for a warm air, gas or oil
heating system. If you are installing it on another type of
system, the system on-time must be adjusted by changing the
setting of screws A and B on the back of the thermostat. Use
the heating system table in Fig. 9 as a guide to minimize room
temperature swings. The system on-time should be optimized
according to the type of system. Setting the screw out one
turn means turning the screw approximately 360°, or one
complete turn.
IMPORTANT
Although the thermostat has a low battery indicator,
replace the batteries once a year to prevent the
thermostat from losing time and programming due to
lack of battery power.
