IMPORTANT:
Although the thermostat has a
low battery indicator, replace the batteries
once a year to prevent the thermostat and
heating/cooling system from shutting down
due to lack of battery power.
When leaving home for longer than a month, as
a precaution, change batteries before you leave
to prevent system from shutting down due to lack
of battery power.
Use fresh alkaline batteries; nonalkaline bat-
teries will not last as long. We recommend
Energizer
®
batteries.
Adaptive Intelligent Recovery™
Selection
Before you program your thermostat, you must
decide if you want to leave the thermostat at
the factory-set Adaptive Intelligent Recovery™
setting, or adjust it to conventional recovery. If
you choose conventional recovery, adjust screw
3A (on the back of the thermostat) by turning
OUT one turn.
With Adaptive Intelligent Recovery™, your home
will reach the comfort temperature gradually to
be at the temperature you set at the exact time
programmed into the thermostat. Maximum en-
ergy savings and comfort will be achieved.
More about Adaptive Intelligent
Recovery™…
This thermostat is actually a small but powerful
computer. When calculating the exact time to
turn on your furnace or air conditioner, it consid-
ers: (1) air temperature, (2) the temperature of
the wall and (3) when you want the comfort
temperature established.

During recovery, the thermostat increases the
control temperature gradually and turns the
equipment on and off several times BEFORE
reaching your comfort time to save energy by
avoiding overshooting the comfort temperature.
You can see the current control temperature
anytime during recovery by pressing the CUR-
RENT SETTING key.
This smart control learns from experience. Each
day it checks how closely it hit the target and
adjusts the recovery start time accordingly. It
normally takes FOUR TO EIGHT DAYS AFTER
INSTALLATION for the thermostat to adjust to
the weather, your lifestyle, home construction
and heating/cooling system.
With conventional recovery, the programmed
time will mark the start of the time your furnace
or air conditioner comes on to start recovery;
therefore, you should program the start time to
be earlier than the desired comfort time. The
best starting time will vary as the seasons
change, but 30 minutes is a good head start
time to use.
NOTE: If you adjust screw 3A for conventional
recovery, a
■
indicator will appear in the lower
right corner of the thermostat display as a
reminder that you are
no longer using the
Adaptive Intelligent
Recovery™ feature.
