CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION
NOTE
To prevent static discharge problems, touch side of thermo-
stat to release static build-up before touching any keys.
If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly,
contact a qualified service person.
Fan Operation
If your system
does not have a G terminal connection, skip to
Heating System.
1. Turn on power to the system.
2. Move FAN switch to
ON position. The blower should begin to
operate.
3. Move FAN switch to
AUTO position. The blower should stop im-
mediately.
Cooling System
To prevent compressor and/or property damage, if the
outdoor temperature is below 50°F, DO NOT operate the
cooling system.
CAUTION
!
This thermostat has a time delay between cooling cycles to allow
the head pressure in the compressor to stabilize. If the temperature
is adjusted to call for cool within 5 minutes of the last cycle the
snowflake icon will blink indicating the thermostat is locked out. Af-
ter 3 to 5 minutes, the compressor will start and the snowflake icon
will stop flashing. This helps prevent the compressor from cycling
too quickly and is normal operation for the thermostat.
1. Move SYSTEM switch to
COOL position.
2. Press
to adjust thermostat setting below room tempera-
ture. The blower should come on immediately on high speed,
followed by cold air circulation
3. Press
to adjust temperature setting above room tempera-
ture. The cooling system should stop operating.
Heating System
1. Move SYSTEM switch to
HEAT position. If the heating system
has a standing pilot, be sure to light it.
2. Press
to adjust thermostat setting above room tempera-
ture. The heating system should begin to operate.
3. Press
to adjust temperature setting below room tempera-
ture. The heating system should stop operating.
