This thermostat is configured from the factory to operate a heat/ cool, fossil fuel (gas, 

oil, etc.), forced air system. It is configured correctly for any system that DOES NOT 
require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for heat. If you system is an electric 
heat or heat-pump system that requires the thermostat to turn on the fan on a call for 
heat, locate the HE/HG in the menu and SELECT it to the HE position. This will allow the 
thermostat to energize the fan immediately on a call for heat. If you are unsure if the 
heating/ cooling system requires the thermostat to control the fan, contact a qualified 
heating and air conditioning service person. When the thermostat is configured for Heat 
Pump, the thermostat will always power the circulator fan on a call for heat in the HEAT 
mode. The HE/HG must be set to match the type of Auxiliary heat your system uses for 
proper operation in the EMER gency mode. 
All wiring diagrams are for typical systems only. Refer to equipment manufacturers’ 
instructions for specific system wiring information. 
3) Select Energy Management Recovery OFF or ON

 

Your thermostat is set from the factory to gradually recover the room temperature from 
an energy saving program to your comfort program. Therefore, the thermostat may turn 
your system on several minutes prior to your programmed.

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 compressor manufacturer can tell you if 
the lockout feature is already present in their system. When the thermostat compressor 
time delay occurs it will flash the set point for about four minutes.

information. 

Auto Season Changeover 

When  the System Selector is in AUTO position , the thermostat will automatically 
change between Heating and Cooling systems, depending on your program. We 
recommend keeping your programmed heating and cooling temperature at least 2

˚

(2

˚

C) apart to allow the Auto Season Changeover to occur when the appropriate 

temperature span has been reached. However, if your heating and cooling programs set 
temperatures are close, there is a built-in program to prevent the thermostat is in 
Temporary, a Designated Day Override or Permanent Override, as these overrides are 
energy saving settings. Auto Season Changeover will still function in Override mode, as 
this is a comfort setting. 
For example, you may have the following temperatures programmed at a given time: 
Heat Set Temp=68

˚

F, Cool Set Temp=78

˚

If the room temperature rises above 78

˚

F, then the thermostat will automatically change 

to cool mode and turn on the air conditioner. 
Likewise, the thermostat will automatically change to heart mode and turn on heat when 
the room temperature falls below 68

˚

F. 

Filter Monitor 

Your thermostat also keeps a record of the number of Days your filter has been in use. 
To maximize your system’s performance and energy efficiency,change or clear your filter 
regularly. 

 When the total fan run time reaches 400 hours, you need clean or 

change your system’s filter, “FILTER” will continue to display until the 
counter is set back to zero. 

 Press to review total filter usage. The “FILTER” display. 

Then show the filter Monitor counter . After 20 seconds, the display will return to normal 
mode, or you can hit RUN to exit immediately. 
The Filter Monitor will display up to 100 Days of usage. In this example, the counter is 
at10 Days. 

 To reset the Filter Monitor counter, depress FILTER for 3 seconds when the filter 

monitor day show. The display will blink, and the counter will be reset to zero. 

Auto Recovery 

uto Recovery calculates how early to turn your system back on, so that the room 
temperature is already comfortable by the start of the comfort temperature program 
period. Auto Recovery work’s in both Heat and Cool modes.

 

 

When the thermostat is in Auto Recovery mode, the display will 

alternate “RECO” with time, and the program indicator will lcddisp. 

Auto Recovery can be disabled by menu setting. 

Auto Recovery will not operate if Permanent hold or Temporary hold is 

in operation. 

Auto Recovery can be canceled manually if HOLD is pressed during the recovery 

process.
