The C (common wire) terminal is optional when thermostat is powered by batteries.

W (O/B) terminal
If thermostat is configured for a heat pump in the Installer Setup, configure changeover valve for cool (“O” factory setting) or heat
(“B”).

L terminal (Output)
Heat pump reset. L terminal powered continuously when thermostat is set to Em Heat. Configure thermostat for 2 heat / 1 cool heat pump in the Installer Setup.

Wire specifications
Use 18- to 22-gauge thermostat wire. Shielded cable is not required.

Wiring
  1. Loosen screw terminals, insert wires into terminal block, then re-tighten screws.
  2. Push excess wire back into the wall opening. Keep wires in shaded area as shown at left.
  3. Plug the wall opening with non- flammable insulation to prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.

Power options & mounting

AC Power
The thermostat can be powered by 24 VAC power, or by batteries. To wire the thermostat for AC power, connect the common side of the cool- ing transformer to the “C” terminal as shown at left.
Important:  Remove R/Rc jumper for 2-transformer systems only. (See wiring diagram on page 5.)

Battery Power
The thermostat can be powered by batteries alone or, if used with AC power, can provide backup power to the display during power interruptions.
After installation, batteries can be changed without removing the ther- mostat from the wall (see page 15).

CAUTION:  EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Compressor protection (minimum off time) is bypassed during testing. To prevent equipment damage, avoid cycling the compressor quickly.

Auto changeover (Setup Function 12)

Honeywell-TH5220D-Non-Programmable-Digital-Thermostat-
fig-17

Auto Changeover is a feature used in climates where both air conditioning and heating are used on the same day. When the system is set to Auto, the thermostat automatically selects heating or cooling depending on the indoor temperature. Heat and cool settings must be at least 3 degrees apart. The thermostat will automatically adjust settings to maintain this 3-degree separation (called “deadband”).
The 3-degree separation between heating and cooling set temperatures is fixed, and cannot be changed.

Built-in compressor protection (Setup Function 15)

Honeywell-TH5220D-Non-Programmable-Digital-Thermostat-
fig-18

This feature helps prevent damage to the compressor in your air conditioning or heat pump system.
Damage can occur if the compressor is re-started too soon after shutdown.This feature forces the compressor to wait for a few minutes before restarting.
During the wait time, the message Cool On or Heat On (heat pumps only) will flash on the display.When the safe wait time has elapsed, the message stops flashing and the compressor turns on.

Auxiliary heat control (Setup Function 26)

Systems with heat pumps can be set to operate in one of two ways: Comfort Setting: The thermostat will prioritize comfort over economy depending on heat pump performance, load conditions and whether the equipment is calling for heat. Raising the temperature just a few degrees will often activate auxiliary heat.

Economy Setting:
The thermostat will attempt to reach the temperature set- ting without activating auxiliary heat. The thermostat waits a preset time before allowing auxiliary heat to be activated depending on the compressor stage performance, and on how many degrees the temperature setpoint is changed.

In case of difficulty

If you have difficulty with your thermostat, please try the suggestions below. Most problems can be corrected quickly and easily.

Display is blank

  • Check circuit breaker and reset if necessary.
  • Make sure power switch at heating & cooling system is on.
  • Make sure furnace door is closed securely.
  • If thermostat is battery powered, make sure fresh AA alkaline batteries are correctly installed (see page 10).

Temperature settings do not change
Make sure heating and cooling temperatures are set to acceptable ranges:

  • Heat: 40° to 90°F (4.5° to 32°C).
  • Cool: 50° to 99°F (10° to 37°C).
    Check temperature range stop settings (Function 27 & 28 on page 12).

Heating system does not respond (“Heat On” appears on screen)

  • Check for 24 Vac at the equipment on the secondary side of the transformer between power and common. If voltage is not present, check the heating equipment to find the cause of the problem.
  • Check for 24 Vac between the heat terminal (W) and the transformer common. If 24 Vac is present, the thermostat is functional. Check the heating equipment to find the cause of the problem.
  • Check for loose or broken wires between the thermostat and the heating equipment.

Cooling system does not respond (“Cool On” appears on screen)

  • Check for 24 Vac at the equipment on the secondary side of the transformer between power and common. If voltage is not present, check the cooling equipment to find the cause of the problem
  • Check for 24 Vac between the cooling terminal (Y) and the transformer common. If 24 Vac is present, the thermostat is functional. Check the cooling system to find the cause of the problem.
  • Check for loose or broken wires between the thermostat and the cooling equipment.

Fan does not turn on in a call for heat
Check Installer Setup, Function 3 (Fan Control), to make sure the fan control is properly set to match the type of system (see page 11).

Heat pump issues cool air in heat mode, or warm air in cool mode
Check Installer Setup, Function 2 (Changeover Valve), to make sure it is properly configured for your system (see page 11).

Heat/cool both on at the same time, or heat does not turn off

  • Check Installer Setup, Function 1 (System Type), to make sure it is set to match the installed heating/cooling equipment (see page 11).
  • Check to make sure the heating and cooling wires are not shorted together.

Heating equipment is running in cool mode

  • Check Installer Setup, Function 1 (System Type), to make sure it is set to match the installed heating/cooling equipment (see page 11).

Cannot change system setting to “Heat”

  • Check Installer Setup, Function 1 (System Type), to make sure it is set to match the installed heating equipment (see page 11).
  • Change Installer Setup, Function 12 (System Setting) to Manual or AutoChangeover (seepage 12).

Cannot change system setting to “Cool”

  • Check Installer Setup, Function 1 (System Type), to make sure it is set to match the installed cooling equipment (see page 11).
  • Change Installer Setup, Function 12 (System Setting) to Manual or AutoChangeover (seepage 12).

“Heat On” is not displayed
Change the System Setting to Heat, and set the temperature level above the current room temperature

“Cool On” is not displayed
Change the System Setting to Cool, and set the temperature level below the current room temperature.

“Cool On” or “Heat On” is flashing
Compressor protection timeout is engaged. Wait 5 minutes for the system to restart safely, without damage to the compressor.
