Figure 2 illustrates the HOME screen. Note that an indoor room temperature of 70°F is initially displayed. After about 1 minute of warm−up time, the actual room temperature will be displayed. HEAT mode is the system default (as indi- cated in the SYSTEM box at lower right).

A pale blue display backlight will turn on each time a key is pressed. The backlight will turn off 8 seconds after the last key is pressed.

Normal Heat Mode

In normal heat mode, both the heat pump and the backup heat source are used to provide heat. If the thermostat de- tects that the heat pump is not able to provide enough heat (as may be the case in very cold weather), then the backup heat source is activated.

Emergency Heat Mode

In emergency heat mode, only the backup heat source is used to provide heat. The heat pump is disabled. The back- up heat source will be activated only when there is a heat demand.

Enabling and Disabling Heat Mode

Use the HEAT button to select normal heat mode, emer- gency heat mode, or to disable heat modes as desired. If the thermostat is in off mode, normal heat mode is enabled when the HEAT button is pressed. This is indicated by HEAT in the SYSTEM box as shown in figure 4.
