2.In the run mode, if the setpoint temperature is manually raised by 3°F (2°C) or more above the actual temperature with the TEMPERATURE UP key, and the fast second stage feature is enabled, FA on, the second stage will energize immediately.

With FA off, second stage will not energize until the setpoint temperature is 1°F or more above actual temperature for more than ten minutes.

3.Select Compressor Lockout CL OFF or ON – Selecting CL ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes before turning on the compressor if the heating and cooling system loses power. It will also wait 5 minutes minimum between cooling and heating cycles. This is intended to help protect the compressor from short cycling. Some newer compressors already have a time delay built in and do not require this feature. Your com- pressor manufacturer can tell you if the lockout feature is already present in their system. When the thermostat compres- sor time delay occurs it will flash the Snowflake and Flame Icons for about five minutes.

4.Select Temperature Display Adjustment 3 LO to 3 HI – Allows you to adjust the room temperature display up to 3° higher or lower. Your thermostat was accurately calibrated at the factory but you have the option to change the display temperature to match your previous thermostat. The current or adjusted room temperature will be displayed on the left side of the display.

5.Select Backlit Display – (Not available on earlier models) The display backlight improves display contrast in low lighting conditions. Selecting backlight ON will keep the light on continuously. Selecting Backlight OFF will keep the light off.

7 TROUBLESHOOTING

Reset Operation

If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display or causes erratic thermostat operation you can reset the thermostat

by pressing and at the same time when system is switched from “OFF” to “HEAT” position. This also resets the factory defaults. If the thermostat has power, has been reset and

still does not function correctly contact your heating/cooling ser- vice person or place of purchase.

Batteries

For optimum performance, we recommend replacing batteries once a year with fresh “AAA” Energizer® alkaline batteries.
