If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display or causes erratic thermostat operation, you can reset the thermostat by removing the wires from terminals R and C (do not short them together) and removing batteries for 2 minutes. After resetting the thermostat, replace the wires and batteries. If the thermostat has been reset and still does not function correctly contact your heating/cooling service person or place of purchase.

Note: Be sure to review the installer configuration menu settings.

To reset the programming, clock and configuration settings, press and and the FAN button simultaneously. The thermostat should go blank and then all segments will be displayed momentarily.
