AUTO CHANGEOVER
Your thermostat provides complete, automatic control over heating
and cooling with auto changeover. Auto changeover means your
system will automatically heat or cool as needed to maintain your
temperature set points.
Auto changeover makes life easier because you no longer have to
manually switch the thermostat between heating or cooling
operation. Just set your heating and cooling set points and let the
system do the rest!
NOTE
: If auto changeover is not necessary in your area of the
country, your installer may disable the AUTO mode feature.
WHAT IF...
The AUXILIARY HEAT indicator is displayed...
The AUX HEAT indicator appears on the heat pump version of the
thermostat only. It is displayed when your system is operating on
auxiliary heat.
NOTE
: This indicator does not reflect a problem with your
system.
The SERVICE FILTER indicator is displayed...
The SERVICE FILTER indicator tells you when to clean or replace
your air filter. Press the RESET FILTER button after cleaning or
replacing the filter to turn off the indicator and reset the system.
NOTE
: This indicator does not reflect a problem with your
system.
You have a system error message...
The temperature sensor failure indicator sends a “----” reading to the
LCD display. This means your thermostat’s temperature sensor is
no longer able to measure temperatures. You will need to contact
your dealer to repair the problem.
An E2 reading on the LCD display means there is not enough
voltage for the system to operate. Contact your dealer for further
information.
If the outdoor air temperature sensor is absent, the outdoor
temperature reading will be “----”.
The batteries are low...
If the batteries are low, the display will indicate a low battery signal
on the thermostat. Replace the batteries with two AA alkaline
batteries.
NOTE
: If the product is hard--wired by the installer, the batteries
will never have to be replaced.
COMMON TERMS
Auxiliary Heat
Most heat pump systems require a supplemental heating source,
called auxiliary heat, to maintain your comfort when outdoor
temperatures fall significantly. Your thermostat lets you know
when your home is being warmed with supplemental heat.
Service Filter
Your system’s air filter will require regular cleaning to reduce the
dirt and dust in the system and your indoor air. The SERVICE
FILTER indicator lets you know when it’s time to clean the filter.
Fan
Your system’s fan can run continuously or only as called for during
heating or cooling. Continuous operation helps with air circulation
and cleaning. Automatic operation provides energy savings. Press
the FAN button to make your choice.
Mode
Mode refers to the type of operation your system is set up to
perform. Mode settings include: OFF, HEAT, COOL, and AUTO.
Heat pump systems also include EMERGENCY HEAT (EHEAT).
Reset Filter
The reset filter function turns off the SERVICE FILTER indicator
and restarts the system. Press the RESET FILTER button after
you’ve cleaned and replaced the system’s air filter.
Set Point
The heating and cooling temperature set points you wish the
system to maintain and have entered into the thermostat. The actual
room temperature will automatically be displayed, but you can
check the desired temperature by pressing either the UP or DOWN
button. While the SET TEMP indicator is lit, press the MODE
button to display the desired temperature set points for the other
mode.
Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor measures the current indoor or outdoor
temperatures which are displayed on the thermostat.
Up and Down Buttons
These buttons are used to set your desired temperature set points.
