FILTER REMINDER

FILTER REMINDER

Your thermostat logs the amount of time your heating and cooling system has been running and gives you a reminder when it's time to replace your filter.

"F I L t " will be displayed every four seconds in the place of the time display when it is time to change you filter. To clear the reminder, press the Prog key. The display will return to normal in 10 seconds. Don't forget to change your filter!

REAL TIME PRICING SYSTEM

Your thermostat may be configured to adjust its temperature settings in response to changes in the cost of energy. Using this feature, you can take advantage of your energy provider's rate structure without sacrificing your comfort.

The thermostat can make adjustments for 4 energy rates: LO, MID, HI and CRIT (critical). At LO energy rates, the thermostat controls your system as it normally would, with no variation for energy rates. For each of the higher rates, MID, HI and CRIT, you can easily set the number of degrees of variation by changing the VAR (variation) settings for the rate.

The rate currently in effect is provided to the thermostat by the energy provider's meter or other device. The thermostat will raise the cool setting or lower the heat setting by the amount that you select for the higher rates. The thermostat display will show which rate is in use by periodically flashing RATE - LO, MID, HI or CRIT in the time display.
