SAFETY

This product must be installed and serviced by a qualified installer or service agency. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, ser- vice or maintenance can cause injury or property damage.

HOW YOUR SYSTEM WORKS

COOLING CYCLE

If your hand is wet and you blow on it, it feels cool because some of the moisture is evaporating and becoming a vapor. This process requires heat. The heat is being taken from your hand, so your hand feels cool.

That’s what happens with an air conditioner. During the cooling cycle, your system will remove heat and humidity from your home and will transfer this heat to the outdoor air.

HEATING CYCLE (HEAT PUMPS)

During the heating cycle, your system will remove heat and humidity from the outdoor air and will transfer this heat to your home. This is pos- sible because even 0°F outdoor air contains a great deal of heat. Remember that your heat pump doesn’t generate much heat, it merely transfers it from one place to another.

System Operation

Your thermostat puts full control of the comfort level in your home at your fingertips. DO NOT switch your thermostat rapidly ON and OFF or between HEAT to COOL. This could damage your equipment. Always allow at least 5 minutes between changes.

SETTING THE THERMOSTAT

The main power to the system must be kept ON at all times to pre- vent damage to the outdoor unit compressor. If necessary, the ther- mostat control switch should be used to turn the system OFF. Should the main power be disconnected or interrupted for 8 hours or longer, DO NOT attempt to start the system for 8 hours after the power has been restored to the outdoor unit. If heat is needed dur- ing this 8 hour period, use emergency heat.

THERMOSTATS

YOUR KEY TO COMFORT

Although thermostats may vary widely in appearance, they are all designed to perform the same basic function: to control the operation of your air conditioning or heat pump system. Regardless of size or shape, each thermostat will feature a temperature indicator; a dial, arm, or push button for selection of the desired temperature; a fan switch to choose the indoor fan operation; and a comfort switch for you to select the system mode of operation.

Only approved thermostats have been tested and are fully compatible with this equipment. Please be aware that many different thermostats operate on batteries or “power stealing” principals. These types of ther- mostats can not be supported as trouble free when used with this product.

If your system has been designed to allow both cooling and heating operation, you may have either a manual change-over type, or a pro- grammable electronic type thermostat.

Manual change-over simply means that the comfort switch must be manually positioned every time you wish to switch from the cooling to heating or heating to cooling modes of operation.

A complete operating instruction is provided by the manufacturer for each thermostat. Familiarize yourself with its proper operation to obtain the maximum comfort with minimum energy consumption.

The computerized electronic thermostat is actually a sophisticated elec- tronic version of a manual change-over type. This thermostat includes features which allow “set-back” temperature variations for periods of sleep, or while you are away during the day, and means energy savings for you. The thermostat also features a digital clock.

COOLING ONLY

If your air conditioning system is designed to provide cooling only (AC), with no capability for heating operation (heat pump), a two-stage cool- ing only thermostat, with a manual, one-position “Cool” and “Off” com- fort switch is all that is required for system operation.

COOLING AND HEATING (HEAT PUMP)

If your system has been designed to allow both cooling and heating operation, you may have either a manual change-over type, or a pro- grammable electronic type thermostat with 2-stages of cooling and 2- stages of heat.

MANUAL CHANGE-OVER

Manual change-over simply means that the comfort switch must be manually positioned every time you wish to switch from the cooling to heating or heating to cooling modes of operation.
