A. INTRODUCTION

In August of the year 2004 we discovered an unnacceptable amount of failures with the previously provided thermostat. After careful testing, we have replaced that model with the one now being described. We hope to hear of your success.

Standard Features Include:

Battery back-up with two AA batteries

100% solid state circuitry

Built-in short cycle protection during normal operation (up to 5 minutes)

Auto or manual fan operation

Constant hold feature allows continuous override

Temporary temperature override

Selectabel Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature display (refer to included manual)

Large liquid crystal display (LCD) – easy to read

Available 12 or 24 hour clock (refer to included manual)

Here is another copy of the items listed on page 15 and 16 regarding mounting the

thermostat. Should you not need this section again, proceed to section B for

SETTING THE CURRENT DAY AND TIME

The thermostat comes with a 20 foot power cable. One end of the cable attaches to the BLACK terminal board on the side of the air conditioner electrical box. The other end is wired into the black teminal board inside the thermostat itself. (Directions listed below.)

The thermostat may be mounted on any flat wall surface with space behind the wall to run the power cable out of view and still reach the air conditioner electrical box. Ideally, the thermostat will be about 2/3 up on an interior wall, out of direct sun light and not directly in front of a "supply air" vent, nor next to a hatch. It is important that the thermostat be located where it is sensing “true” cabin temperature rather than a “dead” spot, or getting incorrect readings from sunlight or sampling air near a constantly opening/closing hatch thereby reading “outside” air rather than inside air.
