Features

This chapter will outline the various alerts the thermostat will report to you and how to respond to them.

Low Battery: This icon will appear when your batteries are starting to run low on power and should be changed to avoid system interruptions, (Figure 1) Change the batteries by gripping the sides of the thermostat firmly and pulling straight back, (Figure 1a). The batteries are located on the backside of the thermostat. The thermostat requires 2 (AA) batteries to operate. If you do not replace the batteries in a timely manner, the screen will go blank except for the low battery warning, (Figure 1b). Your system will shut down and will not operate until you replace the batteries. Replacing the batteries will clear this alert.
Note: Settings will not be lost while replacing the batteries. They are stored in the thermostat’s memory.

Filter Change
When this icon appears on the screen, it indicates you should check your furnace filter to see if it needs to be replaced. To reset this counter see page 16.

Auxiliary Heat: On multi-stage heat pumps this alert indicates your second-stage heat is running.

Check System: Some heat pump systems are equipped with the ability to check system performance, indicated by the presence of an “L” wire attached to the backplate. This icon will flash on the screen to alert the user that the heat pump is reporting a problem with the system. It may be necessary to have the heat pump checked or serviced by an HVAC technician.

Menu Options

Under your menu options, you have the ability to reset your filter counter, span settings, and temperature measurement. After making changes to each menu option, the thermostat will show “Updated”, save your changes, and move you back to the home screen.
To access these options:

1. Press the button.
2. Once in the menu options list, use the or buttons to scroll through the menu items. The button will take you to the selected menu item. To escape menu options, select a menu item by pressing it, then press it again
3. Reset Filter: If the filter indicator is flashing on the home screen you can reset it here. Use the or buttons to select “Filter” and press The screen will flash “Updated” and return to the home screen.
4. Span 1: The next menu option is to set your thermostat’s primary span. Use the or buttons to adjust between 1, 2, or, 3 degrees. Press and the screen will flash “Updated” and return to the home screen. The span setting regulates when and how long your system will run. The span has been set at the factory to 2 which will allow the system to turn on 1OF (.05OC) above or below the set temperature and run for 1OF (.05OC) above or below the set temperature.
5. Example: If your thermostat is set to turn on at 72O in heat mode, with a span setting of 2, your thermostat will activate your furnace at 71O and shut it down when it reaches 73O. For cooling at 72O with a span of 2, your air conditioner will activate at 73O and shut down at 71O. This setting can be changed to 1, 2, or 3. 1 will shorten your running time while 3 will lengthen it.
6. Span 2: Unless you have a multi-stage conventional or heat pump system, there is no need to change the second-stage span. If you do, use the or buttons to adjust between 1, 2, or, 3 degrees. Press once this has been changed or if you need to make no changes. The second stage span acts the same as your primary, but it determines when and how long your second stage heat runs.
7. Temp F/C: The thermostat can change your temperature reading between Fahrenheit and Celcius. Use the or buttons to switch between Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C) Press, the screen will flash “Updated” and return to the home screen

Power Failure Protection
To protect your system from cycling, the system turns on and off rapidly, and your thermostat will prevent your system from turning back on for up to 3 minutes after it has been shut down.

System Protection
In situations where your thermostat may not seem to be operating properly or if you just want to reset and start over, press and hold the buttons for 5 seconds until the screen flashes “Updated!”. This will restore the thermostat to factory condition.
