Testing The New Thermostat

WARNING!

Do not switch the system to cool if the outdoor temperature is below 50 F (10 C).  This may damage the
cooling system and may cause personal injury.

This thermostat is equipped with automatic compressor protection to prevent damage due to short
cycling.  The short cycle protection provides a 5-minute delay between heating (heat pump models) or
cooling cycles to prevent the compressor from being damaged. 

1)

Restore the system power.  The LCD (liquid crystal display) will display
the room temperature.  The LCD will illuminate at the touch of the red
or blue arrow keys.  LCD will return to its normal state after 10 sec-
onds. 

2)

Set the fan switch to the 

ON

position.  The system blower should start.

3)

Set the fan switch to the 

AUTO

position.  The system blower should stop.
