ELECTRIC HEAT OR SINGLE-STAGE
HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS
This thermostat is configured from the factory to operate a heat/ cool, fossil
fuel (gas, oil, etc.), forced-air system. It is configured correctly for any
system that DOES NOT require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for
heat. If your system is an electric heat or heat-pump system that REQUIRES the
thermostat to turn on the fan on a call for heat, locate the ELECTRIC/GAS
switch on the back of the thermostat (see fig. 1) and switch it to the
ELECTRIC position. This will allow the thermostat to energize the fan
immediately on a call for heat. If you are unsure if the heating/cooling
system requires the thermostat to control the fan, contact a qualified heating
and air conditioning
service person.
ATTACH THERMOSTAT BASE TO WALL
- Remove the packing material from the thermostat. Gently pull the cover straight off the base. Forcing or prying on the thermostat will cause damage to the unit. If necessary, move the electric heat switch (see ELECTRIC HEAT SYSTEMS, above).
- Connect wires beneath terminal screws on the base using the appropriate wiring schematic (see figs. 2 through 7).
- Place base over hole in wall and mark mounting hole locations on wall using the base as a template.
- Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes.
- Fasten base loosely to the wall, as shown in fig. 1, using two mounting screws. Place a level against the bottom of the the base, adjust until level, and then tighten screws. (Leveling is for appearance only and will not affect thermostat operation.) If you are using existing mounting holes, or if holes drilled are too large and do not allow you to tighten base snugly, use plastic screw anchors to secure the subbase.
- Push excess wire into the wall and plug the hole with a fire-resistant material (such as fiberglass insulation) to prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.
BATTERY LOCATION
2 “AA” alkaline batteries are included in the thermostat at the factory with a
battery tag to prevent power drainage. You must remove the battery tag to
engage the batteries.
If “BATT” or “CHANGE ” is displayed, the batteries are low and should be
replaced with fresh “AA” Energizer ® alkaline batteries. To replace batteries,
install the batteries along the top of the base (see Fig. 1). The batteries
must be installed with the positive (+) end to the left.
HYDRONIC (HOT WATER OR STEAM)
HEATING SYSTEMS
This thermostat is set to operate properly with a forced-air heating system.
If you have a hydronic heating system (a system that heats with hot water or
steam), you must set the thermostat to operate properly with your system.
Change the second option in the configuration menu to SL (see CONFIGURATION
MENU, page 4).
CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION
If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly, contact a
qualified service person.
Turn on power to the system.

-
Select Temporary Hold Time – The thermostat can hold any temperature you set it to for the amount of time you select on this option. Your choices are 0:00 to 8:00 hours in 15-minute increments. 0:00 disables the function
Example:
1. You have selected 3:00 hours for the Temporary Hold time period.
2. With the thermostat set to Heat or Cool, press HOLD for approximately five seconds until HOLD time (3:00 indicating 3 hours) appears as a set reminder.
3. After releasing the button, “HOLD” on the display will blink.
4. Use ∧ or ∨ to set the temperature to your preference- ence. The thermostat will maintain this temperature setting for 3 hours with “HOLD” blinking to remind you it is on Temporary Hold. After 3 hours the thermostat will go back to the programmed temperature and “HOLD” will no longer blink or display. -
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 normally 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 approximately 1.5°F.
-
Select backlit display – The display backlight improves display contrast in low lighting conditions. Selecting backlight ON will keep the light on for a short period of time after any key is pressed. Selecting OFF will keep the light off.

Select Energy Management Recovery OFF or ON –
Energy Management Recovery (EMR) causes the thermostat to start heating or cooling early to make the building temperature reach the program setpoint at the time you specify. Heating will start 5 minutes early for every 1° of temperature required to reach the setpoint. Cooling allows more time per degree because it takes longer to reach temperature.
Example: You select EMR and have your heating programmed to 65° at night and 70° at 7 AM. If the building temperature is 65° the difference between 65° and 70° is 5°. Allowing 5 minutes per degree the thermostat setpoint will change to 70° at 6:35 AM. -
Select filter replacement run time – The thermostat will display “FLTR” after a set time of operation. This is a reminder to change or clean your air filter. This time can be set from 0 to 1950 hours in 50-hour increments. A selection of 000 will cancel this feature. When “FLTR” is displayed, you can clear it by pressing HOLD and RUN at the same time. This resets the timer and starts counting the hours until the next filter change. Changing the time in the menu also resets the timer.
-
Select Compressor Lockout LOC OFF or ON – Selecting – LOC ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes before turning on the compressor if the heating and the cooling system lose 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.
-
Select Temperature Display Adjustment 4 LO to 4 HI – This 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.
-
Select F° or C° Readout – Changes the display readout to Centigrade or Fahrenheit as required.
-
OPERATING FEATURES
Now that you are familiar with the thermostat buttons and display, read the following information to learn about the many features of the thermostat.
- SIMULTANEOUS HEATING/COOLING PROGRAM STORAGE — When programming, you can enter both your heating and cooling programs at the same time. There is no need to reprogram the thermostat at the beginning of each season.
- TEMPERATURE OVERRIDE — Press ∧ or ∨ until the display shows the temperature you want. The thermostat will override current programming and keep the room temperature at the selected temperature until the next program period begins. Then the thermostat will automatically revert to the program.
- HOLD TEMPERATURE — The thermostat can hold any temperature within its range for an indefinite period without reverting to the programmed temperature. Momentarily press the HOLD button. “HOLD” will be displayed. Then choose the desired temperature by pressing ∧ or ∨ . The thermostat will hold the room temperature at the elected setting until you press the RUN button to start the program operation again.
- CONFIGURATION MENU — This allows you to customize certain thermostat options.
PROGRAMMING YOUR THERMOSTAT
This section will help you plan your thermostat’s program to meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.
- When heating (cooling) your building, program the temperatures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is vacant or during periods of low activity.
- During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually minimal.
Planning Your Program
Look at the factory preprogrammed times and temperatures are shown in the
sample schedule. If this program will suit your needs, simply press the RUN
button to begin running the factory preset program. If you want to change the
preprogrammed times and temperatures, follow these steps.
Determine the time periods and temperatures for your daily programs. You must
program four periods for both the weekday and weekend programs. However, you
may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time
periods. You can choose to start imes, heating temperatures, and cooling
temperatures independently for each day programs (for example, you may select
5:00 AM and 70° as the Monday 1st period heating start time and temperature,
and also choose 7:00 AM and 76° as the Monday 1st period cooling start time
and temperature).
Use the following table o plan your program time periods and the temperatures you want during each period. Fill in the complete table to have a record of your programs.
