PROGRAMMING YOURTHERMOSTAT

This section will help you plan your thermostat's program to meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.

When heating (cooling) your building, program the temper- atures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is vacant or during periods of low activity.

During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually minimal.

Determine the time periods and temperatures for your program. You can program four or two periods for each day (see Configu- ration menu, item 3). You may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time periods. You can choose start times, heating temperatures, and cooling temperatures independently (for example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70 ° as the weekday 1st period heating start time and temperature and also choose 7:00 AM and 76 ° as the weekday 1st period cooling start time and temperature).

Use the table to plan your program time periods and the temperatures you want during each period. Fill in the complete table to have a record of your programs.
