ING Your Thermostat | White Rodgers 1F97-71 instruction

9.The display is flashing BATTERY. What does this mean?

The "AA" batteries installed in the thermostat are low and should be replaced with fresh "AA" Energizer® alkaline batteries. See OPERAT-

ING YOUR THERMOSTAT.

10.The thermostat beeps every few minutes. What does this mean?

The thermostat will beep every five minutes when the batteries are low and need replac- ing. To override the beeping, press any button on the keypad. The beeping will stop for 15 hours, then start again. You may again stop the beeping by pressing any button on the keypad. After turning the beep off three times, the thermostat will quit beeping. However, you risk losing your thermostat programming if you continue to turn off the beep and do not change the batteries. See OPERATING YOUR THERMOSTAT.

11.The display shows a continuous (non-flash- ing) BATTERY. What does this mean? The thermostat is not being supplied with 24vAC power. The thermostat is operating on battery power alone. See OPERATING YOUR THERMOSTAT.

12.Why won’t the compressor turn on, even though the thermostat display is function- ing normally?

Either the compressor lockout feature is in operation or the thermostat is not currently calling for cool. Wait about 5 minutes for the compressor lockout to expire. If the system is still not running, read the cautionary statement at right. Then, if conditions permit, use the

button to move the temperature below the setpoint temperature. See OPERATING YOUR THERMOSTAT.
