   NOTE: If Auto Changeover is enabled in the Installer Options, and 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 dead band spacing. If you plan on using Auto mode, make changes to the heat and cool settings, then switch to AUTO (see section 3.2).
   NOTE: If a Heat Limit is set in the Installer Settings, the heating set point value cannot exceed that limit. If a Cool Limit is set in the Installer Settings, the cooling set point value cannot be less than that limit. If the temperature is adjusted beyond limits, the temperature in the display will flash as long as the or button is held.

Auto Changeover Mode
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. While in AUTO mode, the thermostat will constantly monitor the room temperature to determine whether to run the HEAT or COOL mode to maintain a comfortable temperature. To operate properly, the thermostat requires a “dead band” setting to eliminate program conflicts. The dead band is set in the Installer Options (see section 4 of the Installer Guide). The default is 3º F (1.5º C). Therefore, there is 3º F between the highest HEAT set point and the lowest COOL set point. For example, if the highest HEAT set point was 72º F, the lowest COOL set point would be 75º F. 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.

Braeburn® Remote Indoor Sensor (if installed)
The Braeburn Remote Indoor Sensor senses the air temperature at a remote location and sends the information to the 5300 thermostat. If installed at setup, the display temperature is either the temperature at thesensor or an average of the temperature at the sensor and the temperature at the thermostat.

Remote Outdoor Sensor (if installed)
The Braeburn® Remote Outdoor Sensor is used for determining if balance points have been exceeded, and for
outdoor temperature display. It is not used for room temperature control. If an outdoor sensor has been installed, the
outdoor temperature can be displayed by pressing the HOLD key and the PROG key at the same time. The display
will return to the normal mode after the buttons are released.

Temporary Program Override
Temporary Program Override is the temporary change of the program set temperature. This feature is not available when the thermostat is in the non- programmable mode.

1. Press and hold the or button for 1 second. The entire display will flash once and the SET indicator will be flashing. The current set point temperature will be displayed in the place of the current room temperature. Release the or button and press the or button again to adjust the set point temperature.
2. The display will return to normal mode after 15 seconds or you can press the RETURN button.
3. The Program indicator (MORN, DAY, EVE, NIGHT for Residential) or (OCC, UNOCC for Commercial) will be flashing in the display, indicating that a Temporary Program Override is in effect. The Temporary Program Override will reset when the next set point time occurs, or after the maximum time set in section 2.4.7, whichever comes first.
   NOTE: If Auto Changeover is enabled in the Installer Options, and 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 dead band spacing. Any change made to the set point temperature only applies to the current mode. To review or make changes to the opposite mode, that mode must be selected and the above procedure followed. AUTO can then be selected after the heating and cooling set points are set.
   NOTE: If a Heat Limit was set in the Installer Options, the heating set point cannot exceed that limit. If a Cool Limit was set in the Installer Options, the cooling set point cannot be less than that limit.

Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)

In order to maximize comfort and energy efficiency, this thermostat is equipped with Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™). This feature minimizes the amount of time required by the heating or cooling system to reach the new set point after a setback period is completed, and helps assure your desired temperature is achieved near your set program time . This feature activates when recovering room temperature from setback programs to comfort programs, so it will only take place when the current (heating) program set point temperature is lower than the upcoming program set point temperature, or the current (cooling) program set point temperature is higher than the upcoming program set point temperature. This feature can be turned off during Installer Setup (see section 4 of the Installer Guide). During ARM™, room temperature is recovered gradually by turning on the heating or cooling before the end of the setback period. In a multi-stage configuration, room temperature is recovered gradually by using only the first stage heating or cooling until the last 20 minutes, to minimize the use of the 2nd and 3rd stage heating or cooling.

The set point temperature is changed to that of the upcoming comfort program temperature. The start time of recovery is based on the difference between the current room temperature and the upcoming comfort program set point temperature. The recovery to the upcoming heating set point starts 10 minutes before the upcoming set point time for each degree of temperature change required, up to a maximum of 2 hours. The recovery to the upcoming cooling set point starts 15 minutes before the upcoming set point time for each degree of temperature change required, up to a maximum of 3 hours. ARM™ does not operate when the unit is in the temporary or extended HOLD mode, if the program is temporarily overridden or if emergency heat is selected for multi-stage heat pumps. It also does not operate unless it was enabled during the Installer Setup (see section 4 of the Installer Guide).

Recirculating Fan Feature (see section 2.4.9)
The Recirculating Fan Mode provides more even temperature distribution and improves indoor air quality by circulating air through the furnace filtration system more often. The thermostat is put into the Recirculating Fan Mode by pressing the FAN button until the CIRC icon is displayed. If no call for heating or cooling occurs within the fan off cycle set in section 2.4.6, the fan will run for 12 minutes. The highest setting, 120 minutes, will run the fan least often – 9% minimum running time. The lowest setting, 24 minutes (factory default), will run the fan most often – 33% minimum running time. During any call for heating or cooling, fan control operates in the AUTO mode. The Recirculating Fan feature is available in the COOL, OFF, HEAT, or EMER mode. The Recirculating Fan can be “locked on” in the Installer Options, so that the only fan selections available to the user are CIRC and ON.

Programmable Independent Fan Control
Programmable Independent Fan Control allows the user to run the fan continuously during a selected time period, such as MORN, if PROG fan mode is selected with the fan button, (section 2.2 of this manual) and the fan was set to ON when that time period was programmed. The PROG mode is not available if the recirculating FAN LOCK was enabled in the Installer Setup or in the non- programmable operating mode (see section 4 of the Installer Guide).

Auxiliary Heat Fossil Fuel Option
This thermostat is equipped with an auxiliary heat option which is set by the installer for either an electric or fossil fuel (gas, oil or propane) auxiliary heat source. For heat pump units with an electric auxiliary stage, both the first and second stages of heating will run when a call for second stage heat is made. For heat pump units with a fossil fuel auxiliary stage, the compressor stage will be locked out one minute after a second stage heat call, and the second stage will only be used. The proper operation of this function is preprogrammed into this thermostat. No user changes are necessary.

Compressor Protection and AC Power Monitor
This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the compressor system from short cycling. This thermostat automatically provides a delay (see section 4 of the Installer Guide) after turning off the system output to protect the compressor. This protection is also present in the heat mode ofoperation on single stage heat pump systems to protect the compressor. If enabled during Installer Setup (see section 4 of the Installer Guide), this thermostat also 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. The lockout period is one hour less than the outage time, up to a maximum of 12 hours. During that period of time, the auxiliary heat stage will still be available to maintain the set point temperature. The compressor lockout can be manually overridden at any time by changing the system mode to OFF momentarily, then back to HEAT.
NOTE:  This feature only applies to 2 or 3 Stage Heat Pump Systems. During a power loss, the thermostat will display an outage warning if enabled during Installer Setup (see section 4 of the Installer Guide).
The system clock will continue to run, and all settings will be maintained until the outage period is over.

Temporary Override Adjustment Limits (see section 2.4.7 for settings)
The Temporary Override Adjustment Limits limit how much the thermostat can be adjusted from the program set points when the thermostat is used in the programmable mode. This will not allow the user to set a temporary override in the heat or cool mode past the limit from the program set points. The Temporary Override Adjustment Limits can only be used in the non-programmable mode when the security level is at level 1. This will not allow the user to temporary override in the heat or cool mode past the limit from the program set points.

Low Battery Detection and Replacement
This thermostat requires two (2) properly installed “AA” Alkaline batteries to maintain the system clock and to provide power for the thermostat if 24 volt AC power is not connected to the terminal block. This thermostat is equipped with a low battery detection feature that constantly monitors the batteries during normal operating mode to determine whether they have sufficient power to provide proper operation. When this feature determines that the battery status is low, a solid low battery indicator will appear in the display for 30 days. It is recommended that the batteries be replaced immediately to maintain system operation and / or clock settings. If the battery continues to be low, the indicator will flash every 2 seconds for 30 days. After 30 days the battery indicator will start to flash every 1 second until the batteries are replaced.

Replacing the Batteries

1. Open the front cover and locate the battery compartment door.
2.  Gently remove the two “AA” Alkaline batteries located in the battery compartment.
3. Install two new “AA” Alkaline batteries into battery compartment. Make sure to match the positive (+) ends of the batteries with the positive (+) terminals located in the battery compartment.
4. Close battery compartment and verify that the low battery indicator does not appear in the display.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Symptom:  The fan continues to run in cooling mode when the system has turned off.
  Potential Solution: The Residual Cooling Fan Control Feature can allow up to a 90-second fan delay after the cooling
  system shutdown for energy efficiency gains. The default setting is 60 seconds. This can be changed to disable this feature or shorten the time period if desired (see section 4 of the Installer Guide).

• Symptom:  The thermostat does not turn on the heating or cooling system.
  Potential Solution: Check to see if OFF is shown in the display. This indicates that the system is turned off at the thermostat. Press the system button to select HEAT or COOL mode. After the compressor short cycle protection period expires the system should start within several seconds. Compressor protection features may be in effect due to compressor short cycle conditions, power outages or rolling blackouts. See section 3.15 for full explanation of this feature. Heat pump may be malfunctioning. Look in the lower left corner of the thermostat display. If the word CHECK is present, call a professional service technician to confirm heat pump operation and provide the necessary service. If heating is required, you can press the system button to EMER setting, which may start the Emergency Heat source to provide heating until the heat pump can be serviced.

• Symptom:  The thermostat turns on heating instead of cooling, or cooling instead of heating.
  Potential Solution: Check thermostat wiring to make sure that the heating and cooling stages are connected to the correct terminals on the wiring terminal block (see Installer Guide, section 6).

• Symptom:  Fan runs intermittently or when the system is off.
  Potential Solution: This is a normal operation when fan switch is in recirculate ( ) mode.

• Symptom:  The system turns on prior to the end of a setback period.
  Potential Solution: The thermostat is in Adaptive Recovery Mode (see section 3.11).

• Symptom:  The thermostat turns the heating or cooling system on too often or not often enough.
  Potential Solution: Increase or decrease the first-stage temperature differential setting as appropriate to provide the desired performance level (see section 2.4).

• Symptom:  The thermostat will not follow program set points.
  Potential Solutions: Check the current time of day and day of week program settings. Verify AM/PM indicator is accurately displaying desired time settings (see section 2.1). Check to see if OFF is shown in the display. This indicates that the system is turned off at the thermostat. Press the system button to select HEAT or COOL mode. After the compressor, short cycle protection period expires the system should start within several seconds. Verify your program set point time entries. The thermostat program has been temporarily overridden. Wait until the next set point and the temporary override will expire or change the set point temperature to the desired comfort level. The thermostat program is in Extended Hold (Vacation) Mode and HOLD is shown in display. Press HOLD button to release hold and return the thermostat to normal program operation.

• Symptom:  The system does not automatically switch from Heating to Cooling. Potential Solutions: Auto Changeover was not selected or enabled during installer set-up (see section 4 of Installation Guide and section 3.2 of this manual). The programmed temperature was changed due to dead band violation (see section 3.2).

• Symptom:  The thermostat turns on the second or third (auxiliary) stage of heating or cooling too quickly or not quickly enough.
  Potential Solution: Increase or decrease the second or third (auxiliary) stage temperature differential setting as appropriate to provide the desired performance level (see section 2.4).

• Symptom:  Low battery indicator is shown in the thermostat display.
  Potential Solution: Replace backup batteries as soon as possible (see section 3.18).

• Symptom:  Fan runs constantly or for long periods of time.
  Potential Solutions: Fan control is set to ON. Fan control is set to PROG and is programmed to be on.

• Symptom:  Cannot program a set point temperature lower than 45° F (7° C).
  Potential Solution: This is below the normal thermostat temperature setting range of 45° to 90° F (7° to 32° C).

• Symptom:  HI is shown in the thermostat display where the room temperature is normally displayed. Potential Solutions: The temperature sensed by the thermostat is higher than the 99° F (37° C) upper limit of the thermostat’s display range. The display will return to normal after the sensed temperature lowers within the 40° to 99° F (5° to 37° C) display range. Turn on the cooling system or use other methods to lower the temperature. This condition could occur from the system being turned off during an exceptionally warm period, or upon installation when the thermostat has been stored for a long period of time in a warm vehicle or location prior to being installed.

• Symptom:  The room is too warm or too cold.
  Potential Solution: See section 3.1 of this manual to verify the current set point and make any modifications that are necessary.

• Symptom:  The thermostat display is blank.
  Potential Solutions: It is possible that AC power is not present at the thermostat and the batteries are fully discharged. Check fuse, circuit breaker and thermostat wiring as appropriate to verify AC power is available. Replace batteries before reprogramming the thermostat. See sections 3.18 and 2.5 of this manual. If AC Power is present, call a professional service technician to verify the thermostat and system performance.

• Symptom:  Cannot program a set point temperature higher than 90° F (32° C).
  Potential Solution: This is above the normal thermostat temperature setting range of 45° to 90° F (7° to 32° C).

• Symptom:  The thermostat will not allow me to change the set point.
  Potential Solution: The Keypad is locked. To lock or unlock the keypad, press and hold both the and buttons at the same time for 5 seconds. The LOCK segment in the display will flash as the program and temperature segments are cleared (see section 3.10). The time segments will turn to zeros. Enter the 3-digit code programmed in section 2.4.8 of this manual. After setting the last digit, press the RETURN key for 1 second. The display will return to normal mode. If an incorrect code is entered, the display will flash “no”.

• Symptom:  Keypad does not function.
  Potential Solution: Keypad is locked (check for the LOCK segment in display).

• Symptom:  LO is shown in the thermostat display where the room temperature is normally displayed. Potential Solutions: The temperature sensed by the thermostat is lower than the 40° F (5° C) lower limit of the thermostat’s display range. The display will return to normal after the sensed temperature rises within the 40° to 99° F (5° to 37° C) display range. If the temperature in the controlled space seems to be normal, wait for the thermostat to acclimate to the correct room temperature. If the room seems to be colder than usual, turn on the heating system to raise the temperature as needed for comfort within the room. This condition could occur from the system being turned off during a cold weather period or upon installation when the thermostat has been stored for a long period of time in a cold vehicle or location prior to being installed. The thermostat should be allowed to warm up prior to installation in order to provide proper heating control once installed.

• Symptom:  Fan continues to run all the time whether the system is on or off.
  Potential Solution: Verify that the fan is programmed to run in AUTO mode. This will allow the fan to run only when the heating or cooling system is turned on and running. Check thermostat wiring to make sure that the fan control wiring is connected to the correct terminals on the wiring terminal block (see section 6 of the Installer Guide).

• Symptom:  The unit will not enter program mode.
  Potential Solution: Non-Programmable mode was selected during Installer Setup (see section 4 of the Installer Guide).

• Symptom:  Temporary override of the program set point is limited.
  Potential Solution: The override limit was set in user options (see section 2.4.7).

• Symptom:  The heating or cooling set point cannot be raised above a certain limit.
  Potential Solution: Set point limit was set in installer options.

• Symptom:  The heating or cooling system turns on ahead of scheduled program times.
