ELECTRIC HEAT OR SINGLE-STAGE  
HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS  
Read entire paragraph before setting electric heat switch. If you  
are unsure of your application, contact a qualified service  
person.  
CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION  
If at any time during testing your system does not operate  
properly, contact a qualified service person.  
If you have a single-stage heat pump system, OR your system  
uses central electric heat, where the blower is energized by a  
separate circuit through the fan relay (meaning that the fan  
turns on immediately on call for heat), then the switch on the  
thermostat base must be moved to the “ELECTRIC” position  
(see fig 1). If the thermostat is energizing electric heat sequenc-  
ers, the switch MUST remain in the “GAS” position.  
Turn on power to the system.  
Fan Operation  
If your system does not have a G terminal connection, skip to  
Heating System.  
1. Move fan switch to ON position. The blower should begin to

OPERATION  
Before you begin using your thermostat, you should be familiar  
with its features and with the display and the location and  
operation of the thermostat buttons. Your thermostat consists of  
two parts: the thermostat cover and the base. To remove the  
cover, pullitstraightoutfromthebase. Toreplacethecover, line  
up the cover with the base and press until the cover snaps onto  
the base.

4) Select Compressor Lockout (LOC OFF or ON) - Select-  
ing LOC ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes  
before turning on the compressor if the heating and cooling  
system loses power. It will also wait 5 minutes minimum  
between cooling cycles. This is intended to help protect the  
compressor from short cycling. Some newer compressors  
already have a time delay built in and do not require this  
feature. Your compressor manufacturer can tell you if the  
feature is already present in their system. When the  
compressor time delay occurs it will flash the (snowflake  
icon) for about five minutes then turn on the compressor.  
The Display

the HEAT position. Snowflake icon ( )is displayed (non-  
flashing)whentheSYSTEMswitchisintheCOOLposition.  
Snowflake is displayed (flashing) if the thermostat is in  
lockout mode to prevent the compressor from cycling too  
quickly.

Displays set point temperature (this is blank when SYS-  
TEM switch is in the OFF position).  
5) Select Temperature Display Adjustment (4 LO to 4 HI) -  
Allows you to adjust the room temperature display 4° higher  
or lower. Your thermostat was accurately calibrated at the  
factory but you have the option to change the display  
temperature to match your previous thermostat.  
CONFIGURATION MENU  
The configuration menu allows you to set certain thermostat  
operating characteristics to your system or personal require-  
ments.  
6) Select Temperature DIsplay (°F or °C) - Changes the  
display readout to Centigrade or Fahrenheit as required.  
Move SYSTEM switch to the OFF position, then press  
and  
OPERATING FEATURES  
at the same time to enter the configuration menu. The  
display will show the first item in the configuration menu.  
Now that you are familiar with the thermostat buttons and  
display, read the following information to learn about the many  
features of the thermostat.  
The configuration menu chart below summarizes the configura-  
tion options. An explanation of each option follows.  
• SIMULTANEOUS HEATING/COOLING PROGRAM  
STORAGE — You can enter both your heating and cooling  
set points at the same time. There is no need to change the  
thermostat at the beginning of each season.  
Press  
and  
to change to the next menu item. To exit the  
menu and return to the program operation, move the SYSTEM  
switch to HEAT or COOL. If no keys are pressed within fifteen  
minutes, the thermostat will revert to normal operation.  
• CONFIGURATION MENU — Allows you to customize  
certain thermostat options.  
2) Select FA or SL (Fast or Slow) Heating Cycle Rate - The  
FA setting is frequently used for gas, oil or electric heat. The  
SL setting produces a longer heating cycle which is nor-  
mally for hot water or steam (hydronic) systems. Both  
settings produce very accurate temperature control and  
can be set to your personal preference. FA cycles the  
system just under 1°F and the SL setting cycles at approxi-  
mately 1.5°F.  
SETTING THE THERMOSTAT  
This thermostat is very easy to operate. Set the SYSTEM switch  
to either HEAT or COOL then press  
or  
until the  
temperature you want to maintain is shown on the right side of  
the display. If you want to turn the system off, just move the  
SYSTEM switch to OFF.  
3) Select Display Backlight (d-L OFF or ON) - The display  
backlight improves display contrast in low lighting condi-  
tions. Selecting backlight ON will keep the light on continu-  
ously. Selecting OFF will keep the light off.  
The FAN switch controls the fan operation. When the FAN  
switch is set to AUTO, the fan will cycle with the furnace or air  
conditioner. When the FAN switch is set to ON, the fan will run  
continuously, regardles of SYSTEM switch position.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
No Heating  
With the SYSTEM switch set to HEAT, when the setpoint  
temperature is raised or lowered past the room temperature,  
the thermostat will make a soft click sound. Usually, the sound  
indicates the thermostat is operating correctly. If the system  
does not come on, check the system or contact your heating/  
cooling service person. If the thermostat does not click try the  
Reset Operation listed below.  
No Cooling  
Same procedure as heating except set SYSTEM switch to  
COOL. There can be up to a 5 minute compressor lock-out time  
delay before the thermostat clicks in COOL.  
Blank Display  
A blank digital display usually indicates loss of power to the  
thermostat from the heating and cooling system or indicates  
the thermostat has received a voltage spike or static discharge  
(see Reset Operation).  
The thermostat must have 24 volts constantly supplied to  
terminals RC/RH and C. A blown fuse or tripped breaker could  
cause a power loss. Also, many furnaces contain safety or limit  
devices that can disconnect the power to the thermostat  
intermittently.  
Reset Operation  
If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display or  
causes erratic thermostat operation you can reset the thermo-  
stat by pressing  
,
and move the SYSTEM switch from  
OFF to HEAT at the same time. This also resets the factory  
defaultstotheconfigurationmenu. Ifthethermostathaspower,  
has been reset and still does not function correctly contact your  
heating/cooling service person or place of purchase.
