Temperature Recovery Feature

Your thermostat is equipped with a feature that accommodates recovery time to ensure your comfort.
Recovery time is the time that it takes your heating and cooling equipment to recover from energy−saving settings programmed during away or asleep periods. Recovery time  depends on local weather, your schedule, the contruction of your home and your heating and/or cooling equipment. Your thermostat tracks the time that it takes for your system to reach your desired settings (recovery period). This allows the thermostat to accommodate this recovery period and to ensure your comfort at the programmed wake and return settings.
For example, your WAKE period is programmed for 6:00 a.m. and 70°F. The thermostat activates heating in advance of 6:00 a.m. to ensure that your desired comfort setting of 70°F is reached by the time you awake.
A recovery notice is displayed when the system is operating before the scheduled time.

Clean the Thermostat Screen

The thermostat screen may be cleaned, if necessary.

1. Press the SCREEN key. The thermostat locks the touch screen for 30 seconds to allow for cleaning.
2. Use a damp cloth slightly moistened with water or household glass cleaner to clean the screen.
   IMPORTANT − Do not spray any type of liquid directly onto the thermostat. Spray the water or household glass cleaner on a cloth, then use the cloth to clean the thermostat screen.
3. Repeat the above steps as necessary.
4. Press the DONE key to return to the home screen and normal operation.
   

Battery Replacement

If your thermostat has batteries, a low battery warning flashes on the home screen for approximately 30 days.
IMPORTANT − Batteries should be replaced once per year to prevent leakage and to prevent loss of battery backup in a power outtage. You may also wish to replace the batteries prior to leaving your home for more than a month.

1. When the low battery indicator is flashing, replace the batteries promptly with three fresh AAA alkaline batteries.
   
2. Remove the thermostat from the wallplate by pulling straight out.
3. Remove the old batteries and insert three fresh AAA alkaline batteries, as marked on the thermostat.
4. Align the terminal screw blocks with the pins on the back of the thermostat.
5. Push the thermostat straight onto the wallplate until it snaps into place.

Built−In Compressor Protection

The thermostat provides built−in compressor protection (minimum− off timer) that prevents the compressor from restarting too early after a shutdown.
The minimum−off timer is activated after the compressor shuts off.
If there is a demand for compressor operation during the delay, the thermostat displays the WAIT message.
When the minimum−off delay expires, COOL ON ( or HEAT ON in heat pump applications) is displayed solidly on the screen and the compressor and fan are allowed to operate to meet the demand.

Outdoor Temperature

If the temperature is not displayed and an outdoor temperature sensor has been installed, press the MORE key until the outside temperature is displayed.

Advanced Heat Pump Features (Select Models)

Some thermostat models, when used in heat pump systems which include an optional outdoor temperature sensor, provide additional features. In these applications, the compressor and/or back−up heat lockout may be based on the outside temperature.

Screen Lock

You can fully or partially lock the keys on the touch screen. See the Advanced Settings section for more information on this feature. If the thermostat displays a Screen Locked” message, your thermostat screen is either fully or partially locked.

  When partially locked, all touch screen keys are locked except the temperature up and down arrow keys and the SYSTEM key access to the user set−up options. The Screen Locked message is displayed for 5 to 7 seconds each time the user attempts to press a key that is locked.
  When the screen is partially locked, you will be able to adjust the temperature setting up or down; but schedule settings will not be accessible. The temporary temperature change lasts until the next scheduled period. Refer to Temporary Temperature Override section. To cancel the temporary temperature override and return to the programmed schedule, press the CANCEL key.
