To Test Thermostat

WARNING: DO NOT SHORT (JUMPER) ACROSS TERMINALS OF GAS VALVE OR SYSTEM CONTROL TO TEST OPERATION. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE THERMOSTAT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

CAUTION: Do not switch system to cool if the temperature is below 50°F (10°C). This can damage the air conditioning system and cause personal injury.

1.Place the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch into the COOL position

2. Press the >button until the temperature

setting is at least 3 degrees below the room temperature. The air conditioning system should turn on within a few seconds.

NOTE: While in the Cool or Heat mode once the thermostat turns the system off, a built-in delay keeps the compressor from turning on for about 5 minutes. This protects the compressor. No additional time delay relay (delay on break) is necessary.

3.Put the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch into the OFF position. The air conditioning system should turn off. The fan may continue to run for a short period of time.

4.Put the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch into the HEAT position.

LED Indicators

The LED indicators are used to indicate system activity. The AUX indicator illuminates during a call for second stage heating. The auxiliary stages are used to maintain comfort during extremes in weather conditions. If the AUX LED is illuminated too frequently during periods of moderate temper- ature, check the differential settings (page 5).

The CHECK indicator is used to monitor system status. If the CHECK indicator is illuminated, call your local HVAC service provider.

The EMER indicator is illuminated only when the system switch is moved to the EM, emergency heat position. The EM position is only used when the primary stage of heat is not functioning or requires service.
