Reset Operation

Note: If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display or causes erratic thermostat operation, you can reset the thermostat by removing the thermostat from the wall plate and removing batteries for 2 minutes. After two minutes, replace the batteries and replace thermostat on wall plate. If the thermostat has been reset and still does not function correctly contact your heating/cooling service person or place of purchase.
