IMPORTANT
Read the entire installation section of this Owner’s Manual
thoroughly before you begin to install or operate your
Thermostat.
REMOVE THE MYLAR LABEL FROM THE LCD DISPLAY
WINDOW.
INSTALLATION
All programming is normally performed at your
thermostat’s location.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
The thermostat provides a 4-minute delay after shutting
off the heating or cooling system before it can be restarted.
This feature will prevent damage to your compressor
caused by rapid cycling. Note that this delay also applies
to the heating system control. It does not provide a delay
when there are power outages. You can select the function
ON or OFF during the configuration.
TEMPERATURE RANGE
This thermostat can be programmed between 45°F
and 95°F (7°C and 35°C). However, it will display room
temperatures from 30°F to 99°F (0°C and 37°C). HI will be
displayed if the temperature is higher than 99°F (37°C),
and LO will be displayed if the temperature is lower than
30°F (0°C). This thermostat will automatically shut down in
Heat mode if the temperature rises above 95°F (35°C), and
automatically shut down in cool mode if the temperature
drops below 45°F (7°C).
by Uni-Line®
NOTE: If the thermostat measures a temperature over 99°F
(37°C), HI will be displayed on the LCD. If the temperature
is below 32°F(0°C), LO will be displayed on the LCD.
POWER FAILURE
Whenever the main power is interrupted or fails, the
battery power retains the current time for approximately
one minute. This thermostat has permanent memory,
although you will have to reset your clock when there are
power outages of longer duration than one minute.
POWER SUPPLY
The thermostat is powered by 24V AC, with batteries
providing backup.
BATTERY WARNING
Fresh alkaline batteries should provide about one year
of service. However, when the batteries become weak,
BATT will alternate on the display with the current time.
When this message occurs, install 2 new AA batteries. You
have approximately 1 minute to change the batteries and
keep thermostat’s clock. Once the batteries have become
too weak to ensure proper operation, your system will be
turned off, and the display will be cleared except for BATT
flashing on the LCD display.
CAUTION: Once the BATT display occurs, the thermostat
is shut down, and your system will no longer
operate. In this condition, there is no temperature
control. NOTE: The backlight will not function
when the thermostat is in low battery condition.
NOTE: If you plan to be away from the premises over 30
days, we recommend that you replace the old batteries
with new alkaline batteries prior to leaving.
INSTALLATION
What You Need (Note: A fossil fuel kit is required.):
This thermostat includes two #8 slotted screws and two
wall anchors for mounting. To install your thermostat, you
should have the following tools and materials.
• Slotted screwdriver(s)
• Small Philips screwdriver
• Hammer
• Electric drill, 3/16” bit
• Two 1.5V (AA) size alkaline batteries (included)
CAUTION:
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage,
disconnect electric power to system at main fuse or
circuit breaker box until installation is complete.
Before removing wires from the old thermostat, label each
wire with the terminal designation it was removed from.
1. Shut off electricity at the main fuse box until installation
is complete. Ensure that electrical power is disconnected.
2. Remove Old Thermostat. A standard heat/cool
thermostat consists of three basic parts:
a. The cover, which may be either a snap-on or hinge
type.
b. The base, which is removed by loosening all screws.
c. The switching subbase, which is removed by
unscrewing the mounting screws that hold it on the
wall or adaptor plate.
3. Remove the front cover of the old thermostat. With wires
still attached, remove wall plate from the wall. If the
old thermostat has a wall mounting plate, remove the
thermostat and the wall mounting plate as an assembly.
4. Identify each wire attached to the old thermostat.
5. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat one at a
time.
DO NOT LET WIRES FALL BACK INTO THE WALL.
6. Install new thermostat using the following procedures.
WARNING
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified voltage. Higher
voltage will damage the control and could cause a shock
or fire hazard. Do not short out terminals on gas valve
or primary control to test. Incorrect wiring will damage
thermostat and could cause personal injury and/or
property damage.
Selector Switches
Figure 1. Electric/Gas Switch (Fan Option)
This thermostat is configured from the factory to operate
a heat/cool, fossil fuel (gas, oil, etc.), forced air system.
It is configured correctly for any system that DOES NOT
require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for
heat. If your system is an electric heat or heat pump
system that requires the thermostat to turn on the fan
on a call for heat, locate the ELEC/GAS switch on the back
of the thermostat (see Figure 1) and switch it to the ELEC
position. This will allow the thermostat to energize the
fan immediately on a call for heat. If you are unsure if the
heating/cooling system requires the thermostat to control
the fan, contact a qualified heating and air conditioning
service person. When the thermostat is configured for heat
pump, the thermostat will always power the circulator fan
on a call for heat in the HEAT mode. The ELEC/GAS switch
must be set to match the type of auxiliary heat your system
uses for proper operation in the EMERGENCY mode.
All wiring diagrams are for typical systems only. Refer to
equipment manufacturer’s instructions for specific system
wiring information.
Attach Thermostat Base to Wall
1. Remove the packing material from the thermostat.
Gently pull the cover straight off the base. Forcing or
prying will cause damage to the unit.
2. Connect wires beneath terminal screws on base using
appropriate wiring schematic (see Figure 2 through 6).
3. Place base over hole in wall and mark mounting hole
locations on wall using base as a template.
4. Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes.
5. Fasten base loosely to wall, as shown in Figure 1,
using two mounting screws. Place a level against
bottom of base, adjust until level, and then tighten
screws. (Leveling is for appearance only and will not
affect thermostat operation.) If you are using existing
mounting holes, or if holes drilled are too large and do
not allow you to tighten base snugly, use plastic screw
anchors to secure base.
6. Push excess wire into wall and plug hole with a fire
resistant material (such as fiberglass insulation) to
prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.
