MINIMUM HEAT/COOL SETPOINT DIFFERENCE - The Heat and Cool setpoints will not be allowed to come any closer to each other than the value set in Advanced Setup step
#6, on page 12. This minimum difference is enforced during Auto changeover and Program On operation.
ELECTRIC HEAT - Selecting Electric Heat on, page 11, step # 4, will cause the thermostat to turn on the fan immediately any time there is a heat demand. Since all gas furnaces control the fan, this feature should be off unless the heater is only electric.
