Additional Operation Features

Auto Changeover Mode
Auto Changeover mode is a feature enabled/disabled in the Installer Settings (see Installer Manual). If enabled, it is selected by pressing the SYSTEM button until AUTO HEAT or AUTO COOL appears in the display. When Auto Changeover mode is enabled and selected, the system automatically switches between heating and cooling when the room temperature meets the programmed heating or cooling set points. To operate properly, the thermostat requires a “dead band” setting to eliminate program conflicts. The dead band is set in the Installer Settings (See Installer Guide). The default setting is 3° F. Therefore, you will not be able to set your heat or cool temperature within 3° F of each other. If a setting is made in either heating or cooling which violates the dead band, the opposite mode will adjust up or down automatically to maintain the programmed dead band spacing.

Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)
Adaptive Recovery Mode is a feature enabled/disabled in the Installer Settings (See Installer Guide).
If enabled, the feature is automatically present while in programmable mode.
Adaptive Recovery Mode tries to reach your desired heating or cooling temperature at the time you have set in your current program schedule, after a setback period. For example, if you set your heat down to 62° at night and have a set point of 70° scheduled for 7:00 AM, the thermostat may turn on your heating system early in order to achieve a temperature of 70° by 7:00 AM. This feature does not operate when the thermostat is in HOLD mode if the program is temporary if emergency heat is selected on a multistage heat pump system.

Programmable Fan Mode
Programmable Fan Mode is selected by pressing FAN until PROG appears in the display. It is only available in 7 or 5-2 Day programmable mode.
Programmable Fan Mode allows the user to run the fan continuously during a selected program event. To use this feature, select fan ON while setting program events.
(See “Setting Your Program Schedule”, page 13).

Compressor Protection
Compressor protection is enabled/disabled in the Installer Settings (See Installer Guide). If enabled, this feature is automatically present in cooling and/or heating modes. This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection delay to avoid potential damage to your system from short cycling. This feature activates a short delay after turning off the system compressor. Additionally, for multi-stage heat pump systems, this thermostat provides cold weather compressor protection by locking out the compressor stage(s) of heating for a period of time after a power outage greater than 60 minutes. This cold weather compressor protection can be manually overridden at any time by changing the system mode to OFF momentarily, then back to HEAT.

Locking and Unlocking the Thermostat
Your 3-digit Lock Code is set in the “User Options” portion of this manual (See “Setting User Options”, page 8, 9 and 11). Once the code is set, the thermostat can be locked or unlocked at any time by entering that code. To lock or unlock the thermostat, press and hold the DAY/TIME and HOLD buttons together for 5 seconds. The screen will change, displaying 000 and LOCK will be flashing. Press the SpeedBar® or to enter the first digit of your lock code and then press
NEXT to advance to the next digit. Repeat this process to enter the second and third digit of your lock code. After entering the third digit, press RETURN. BACK and NEXT are secondary functions of the PROG and HOLD buttons.

If you entered a valid code the thermostat will be locked or unlocked (depending on its previous state).
When locked, the word LOCKED appears in the display (Figure 1). If an invalid code is entered the word NO will briefly appear, indicating that an incorrect code was entered (Figure 2).

AC Power Monitor
The AC Power Monitor feature is enabled in the Installer Settings (See Installer Guide). If enabled, this feature will automatically be present. If your thermostat was hardwired (power provided from the system with batteries as a backup) then the AC Power Monitor feature will indicate when a loss of power to the thermostat has occurred by flashing NO POWR. ****

Indoor Remote Sensing
Indoor remote sensing is achieved by installing a Braeburn® remote indoor sensor and is configured in the Installer Settings (See Installer Guide).
If a Braeburn indoor remote sensor was installed and properly configured in the Installer Settings, the thermostat will sense temperature at a remote location or a combination of a remote location and the thermostat location.

Outdoor Remote Sensing
Outdoor remote sensing is enabled by installing a Braeburn® remote outdoor sensor. No additional configuration is required. If a Braeburn outdoor remote sensor was installed you may press the PROG and HOLD buttons at the same time to view the outdoor temperature.

Thermostat Maintenance

Thermostat Cleaning
Never spray any liquid directly on the thermostat. Using a soft damp cloth wipe the outer body of the thermostat. Never use any abrasive cleansers to clean your thermostat.

Changing the Batteries
This thermostat requires two (2) properly installed “AA” alkaline batteries to maintain the thermostat clock and to provide power for the thermostat if 24-volt AC power is not connected. (See Installer Guide).
If batteries become low, a battery indicator will appear on the display. You should change your batteries immediately when you see the low battery signal by following
these instructions.

Remove the thermostat body by gently pulling it from the base.
Remove old batteries and replace them with new batteries.
Make sure to correctly position the (+) and (-) symbols.
Gently push the thermostat body back onto the base.
NOTE: We recommend replacing the thermostat batteries annually or if the thermostat will be unattended for an extended period of time.
