MANUAL MODE

The most basic operation of the Intelligent water heater ther- mostat is the Manual Mode. With this mode the thermostat is set at a desired temperature and the water heater operates to maintain that temperature. The Intelligent Maytag water heater utilizes a special sensing device in the control system that allows for temperature accuracy to be maintained at plus or minus 1°F.

VACATION MODE

Vacation mode is used whenever the residency is unoccupied for a considerable length of time (2-days or longer) and hot water is not needed. By selecting the Vacation Mode the water heater will maintain a reduced setting of 80 degrees until a new opera- tion mode is selected.

PROGRAMMABLE MODE

The Auto mode selection permits the water heater to be pro- grammed for four periods a day, 24-hours a day and 7-days a week. To begin programming, depress the “MODE” button until the AUTO selection appears in the display. To activate the Program Mode depress the “PROGRAM” button at the top of panel. The programming mode should appear as the next display.

The first period to program is Monday “Morn” - this period is designated as “Morn”. By depressing the + or - of the “TIME” button, the owner can choose the target time for the water to be at a specific temperature. The heating elements will be activated 15 minutes before the target time to heat the water to the desired temperature. For example, if 6:00 AM is the time the occupant desires 130°F water for bathing, the time on the pro- grammed display would be set for 6:00 AM. The next selection to program is the desired water temperature to have for morning activities. In this example the temperature would be set to 130°F by depressing either the up ( ) arrow or the down ( ) arrow, located next to the display panel, until the target temperature is displayed.

The second period to program is Monday “Day” - the method of setting the time and temperature are the same for all four selected periods of the day. The second period designated “Day” can be set to a reduced temperature (70°F or lower) due to the lack of need for hot water, assuming no one is at home during the day. If everyone leaves at 9:30 AM, this time can be entered into the program and the heating elements would not activate until the temperature in the tank dropped to 70°F.

The third period to program is Monday “Eve” - this period is designated “Eve would usually begin when people arrive home from their daily activities. The temperature for this period can be adjusted to a normal hot water setting considering evening demand like washing dishes or clothes. For example if 125°F is the chosen temperature to have at 5:30 PM then these settings would be entered into the program.

The fourth period to program is Monday “Nite” - this period is designated “Nite” and is usually the beginning of decreased hot water needs as the residents retire for the night. In the example the temperature would be set for 70°F or lower with the begin time set at 11:00 PM.

Program Copy - The first day of programming has now been completed. If each succeeding day of the workweek requires the same desired settings as those just programmed for Monday, these settings can be copied to the remaining four days of the week by depressing and holding the “PROGRAM” button for several seconds. In this manner the first day’s settings are repeated to all four remaining weekdays.

Weekend programming - the weekend programming can be set different than the weekday settings, if desired. Saturday and Sunday can be separately programmed by advancing the pro- gram selection to the day marked “SA” and/or “SU”. The steps described above for programming the four periods per day can be repeated for the weekend only using different times and tem- peratures to provide desired water temperatures when needed on the weekend.
