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 cooling cycles to prevent the
compressor from being damaged.
