INSTALLATION AND
ADVANCED FEATURES
SPECIAL PROGRAM
The hardware reset is a push button that is located on the right edge of the circuit board,
just above the battery location. This reset button is used by the thermostat to reset the
unit’s clock, and read the position of all of the option switches. When any of the
following items are changed, the hardware reset button must be pushed for the change to
be recognized. User temperature programs are not erased when a hardware reset is
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
When activated, the Special Program operates in much the same manor as the normal
Weekday, Saturday, or Sunday program routines do, however the Special Program
activation is temporary. The Special Program period times and temperatures can all be set
to different values to accommodate a wide variety of usage circumstances that may occur,
such as: home for a couple holiday days during the week, a vacation cut short, and so on.
This feature eliminates the need to temporarily alter the settings for the existing Weekday,
Saturday, or Sunday programming periods that will continue to be used most of the time.
To activate the Special Program, press and hold down the HOLD button for a minimum of
2 seconds. When the Special Program is active, the words SPECIAL PROGRAM will be
present in the upper left corner of the screen, and the clock will alternate with the Days
Left value. Initially, upon activation, you can set the number of days that the Special
Program will be controlling the set temperature. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to change the
Days Left number to a value between 01 and 99 days. 01 Days Left is the default setting.
If a selection is not made, the value of 01 days will be used.

Thank you for your confidence in our product. To obtain the best results from your
investment, please read these instructions and acquaint yourself with your purchase.
The following option settings are all located within a group of small switches labeled 1
through 6 as shown below, and are located in the center of the circuit board.
COMPATIBILITY
This thermostat can be used with most single stage 24 volt: gas, oil or electric heating
and/or cooling systems, single stage heat pumps, or gas Millivolt heating systems. It
cannot be used with 3-wire zone valves, 120 volt heating systems, or multi-stage heat
pumps. Ask your dealer for other LUXPRO thermostats to control those systems.
SWING SETTING
A thermostat works by turning your heating or cooling system on and off whenever the
room temperature varies from the set-point temperature. The amount of this variation is
called the “swing.” Your system should cycle on about 3 to 6 times per hour. A smaller
swing number increases the number of cycles per hour, so the room temperature is more
precise and constant. A larger swing number decreases the number of cycles per hour,
but saves energy in most cases. To change the Swing setting, turn the dial to RUN mode.
Hold down the NEXT button and push the HOLD button once, then let go of both. The
words SWING and SET will appear on the screen with a number. Use the UP/DOWN
buttons to change the number value between 1 and 9. Number 1 is the default setting.
Press the NEXT button to accept the setting and return to normal Run mode.

[5] EARLY RECOVERY
Your thermostat has the ability to turn the Heating and Cooling in your home on early, so
that it reaches your programmed “comfort” temperatures at the time you have set them
for. For instance, if you have programmed your thermostat for 70° at 5:00pm, normally
the thermostat would begin to heat your home back up at 5:00pm. With Early Recovery
enabled, the thermostat will calculate the best time to turn the heat on so that the
temperature in your home reaches 70° at or by 5:00pm. During the time that the
thermostat is performing a recovery, the words “IN RECOVERY” will flash in the
temperature portion of the display screen. Switch position OFF is Recovery Disabled, and
ON is Recovery Enabled.

LOCATION
On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in place of the old one unless the
conditions listed below suggest otherwise. On new installations, follow the guidelines
listed below.
PROGRAMMING
1. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor, and in a
room that is used often.
2. Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as in a corner or an alcove, or behind
an open door.
3. Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct sunlight;
near a lamp, television, radiator, register, or fireplace; near hot water pipes in a wall; near
a stove on the other side of a wall.
4. Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an unheated
room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.
5. Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that may shorten thermostat
life.
6. If painting or construction work has yet to be completed, cover the unit completely or
do not install it.
MODE SWITCHES
For all of the programming areas that are described below, this thermostat provides four
independent periods per day for Heat mode and Cool mode, they are: MORN, DAY, EVE,
and NITE. Each period ends at the start time of the following period. The programs for
each Temperature mode are programmed separately. When you perform a Software Reset,
There are two mode switches on the front, a Temperature mode switch and a Fan mode
switch. The Temperature mode switch has three positions: HEAT, OFF, and COOL. In the
winter, set the system switch to HEAT to control your heating system. In the summer, set
the switch to COOL to control your air conditioner. In the spring and fall or when the
windows are open, you can set the switch OFF. The Fan mode switch has two positions,
AUTO and ON. Setting the Fan mode switch to AUTO, automatically runs your system's
blower fan as required only during heating and cooling activation. Setting the Fan mode
switch to ON, runs your system’s fan continuously, even if heating or cooling is not
needed, including when the Temperature mode switch is in the OFF position to provide air
circulation only.
®
an Energy Star approved program is inserted into all of the program periods. You can
use these default programs or alter any portion of them to suit your own preferences.
When setting the program items, the value that is flashing is the item that you can change
at that time.
SET WEEKDAY PROGRAM
Select either HEAT or COOL with the Temperature mode switch. Rotate the dial to
WEEKDAY PROGRAM. You will be programming all five weekdays at the same time. The
first period is MORN. Using the UP and DOWN buttons, set the start time for this period,
and then push the NEXT button to proceed. Now set the desired set temperature for the
MORN period using the UP and DOWN buttons, and push NEXT to proceed. Now set the
start time and set temperature for the DAY period, pushing NEXT after each to advance.
Continue with these same steps to set the start time and set temperature for the EVE, and
NITE program periods. When you are finished setting all four periods, you may continue
pushing the NEXT button through all four periods to review your entries, or turn the dial
to RUN if you are finished. These same programming steps for all four periods must be
performed in both Heat and Cool Temperature modes independently.
