Built-in compressor protection

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 display will flash the message Cool On (or Heat On if you  have a heat pump).When the safe wait time has elapsed, the message stops flashing and the compressor turns on.

Battery replacement

Install fresh batteries immediately when the REPLACE BATTERY warning begins flashing.The warning flashes about two months before the batteries are depleted. Even if the warning does not appear, you should replace batteries once a year, or before leaving home for more than a month. If batteries are inserted within two minutes, the time and day will not have to be reset.All other settings are permanently stored in memory, and do not require battery power.
