ADJUST FAN OPERATION SWITCH, AS

REQUIRED

The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled FUEL

SWITCH (see Fig. 12) is factory-set in the “F” position.

This is the correct setting for most systems. If this system is

an electric heat system, set the switch to “E.” The “E”

setting will allow the fan to turn on immediately with the

heating or cooling in a system where the “G” terminal is

connected.

ADJUST SYSTEM ON-LENGTH, AS REQUIRED

The thermostat on-length is factory-set for a warm air,

gas or oil heating system. When installing it on another type

ofsystem, adjusttheon-lengthaccordinglybysettingscrews

A and B on the back of the thermostat, using the heating

system table in Fig. 12 as a guide. To minimize room

temperature swings, optimize the on-length according to

the type of system. Adjusting the screw “out one turn”

means turning the screw approximately 360°, or about one

complete turn.

Use two AA alkaline batteries; nonalkaline batteries

will not last as long. We recommend Energizer batteries.

Make sure the thermostat is set to OFF position.

Use a coin to remove battery door (see Fig. 13).

Install the fresh batteries as shown, making sure positive

and negative terminals are oriented correctly (see Fig. 14).

Replace battery door.

T8132 Models

As 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

sometime during the flashing “bAt Lo” indicator, the indi-

cator will eventually stop flashing. When the batteries are

almost completely dead, “bAt Lo” will stay on without

flashing to indicate the thermostat and heating/cooling

system have stopped working.

NOTE: These thermostats do not have a setting for steam/

gravity air. Cycles would not be long enough for accu-

rate temperature control.

NOTE: For condensing furnaces, follow manufacturer

instructions.

If you want a longer on-length, readjust the screws as

follows (refer to the heating system table in Fig. 12):

The thermostat will not function after the batteries are

completely dead, and the “bAt Lo” indicator will disappear,

leaving a completely blank display.

Press down on left ends of batteries to remove. If the

new batteries are inserted within 20-30 seconds of remov-

ing the old ones, the thermostat will not require reprogram-

ming. However, if the display is blank, the batteries are

dead or incorrectly installed and the thermostat requires

reprogramming. See owner’s manual to reprogram.

INSTALL BATTERIES

T8131 Models

When the batteries are running low, the LED will display

“bAtLo” only when 24 Vac is not present, indicated by an

unlit LED.

IMPORTANT: All T8132 models require batteries for

programming and operation of the thermostat and

heating/cooling system. Batteries are optional for

T8131 models, but are recommended to retain pro-

gram memory if ac power is lost.

vent the thermostat from losing time and program

due to lack of battery power.
