4)

Set the system switch to the 

HEAT

position and depress the red

arrow key until the temperature set point is at least 3 degrees
above the room temperature.  The LCD will display a flame icon
to indicate heat.  The heating system should start within several
seconds (the system blower may not come on immediately).

5)

Set the system switch to the 

OFF

position. The system should shut down within several seconds.  The LCD

will again display only the room temperature.  

6)

Set the system switch to the 

COOL

position and depress the

blue arrow key until the temperature set point is at least 3
degrees below the room temperature.  The LCD will display a
snowflake icon to indicate A/C.  The cooling system should start
within several seconds.  WARNING:  Do not perform this test if the outdoor temperature is below 50 F.

7)

Set the system switch to the OFF position.  The system should shut down within several seconds.  The LCD
will again display only the room temperature.  

Programming The User Settings

Temperature Differential 

is factory set at .5 F (0.25 C) for both heating and cooling cycles.  The room tempera-

ture must change .5 F (0.25 C) from the set point temperature before the thermostat will initiate a call for heat or
A/C.  This should be appropriate for most applications.  However, if the system is cycling on and off too frequent-
ly, the setting can be adjusted as follows.

1)

With the system setting in the 

OFF

position, simultaneously

depress the red and blue arrow keys.  The LCD (liquid crystal
display) will display the temperature differential setting.  Using
the red and blue arrow keys set the differential to the desired
setting of .5, 1, or 2 degrees.  The higher the setting, the less
frequently the system will cycle.
