INSTALLATION

PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

CAUTION :
This thermostat is protected against normal static electric discharges. However, in extremely dry weather you should touch a grounded metal object before touching the thermostat to minimize the risk of causing damage to the unit.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• #1 Phillips screwdriver (small-medium)
• Drill with 3/16-in. (4.8mm) drill bit
• Wire stripper/cutter

CAUTION :
Turn off the electricity to the appliance before installing or servicing the thermostat or any part of the system. Do not turn the electricity back on until the work is completed.

•  Your thermostat is a precision instrument.
  Please handle it with care.
• Do not short (jumper) across the electric terminals for the furnace to test the system. This may damage the thermostat and void your warranty.
• All wiring must conform to all applicable local codes and ordinances.
• This thermostat should be limited to a maximum of 1.5 amps; higher current may cause damage to the thermostat.

THERMOSTAT LOCATION

On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in place of the old one unless the conditions listed below suggest otherwise. On new installations, follow the guidelines listed below.

1. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, at about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor, and in a room that is used often.
2. Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: direct sunlight, near a lamp, television, radiator, register, fireplace, on a wall opposite a stove, or that carries hot water pipes.
3. Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an unheated room, or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.
4. Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as: in a corner or alcove, or behind an open door.
5. Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that may shorten thermostat life.
6. Do not install the unit until all construction work and painting have been completed.

REMOVING THE OLD THERMOSTAT

1. Switch OFF the electricity to the furnace or heating equipment; then proceed with the following:
2. Remove the cover from the old thermostat. Most are snap-on types and simply pull off, some have screws on the sides, and these must be loosened first.
3. Take note of the letters printed near the wire terminals. Attach labels (enclosed) to each wire for identification by terminal letter, not color.
4.  Make sure the wires do not fall back inside the wall. Remove and label one wire at a time, and do not allow the wires to touch each other or any parts of the thermostat.
5. Loosen all screws on the old thermostat and/or base, and remove it from the wall.

CAUTION :
Be careful not to drop the body or disturb any of the electronic parts.

MOUNTING THE NEW THERMOSTAT:

1. Strip insulation leaving 3/8 in. (9.5mm) of bare wire on the ends and cleaning off any corrosion present.
2. Fill the wall opening with non-combustible insulation to prevent drafts from affecting the thermostat while in use.
3. Pull your new thermostat apart by applying pressure to the thumb tab on the bottom edge of the unit. While pressure is being applied to this release latch, pull the two halves of the thermostat apart near the bottom edge.
   NOTE: If you are mounting the base to a soft material like plasterboard, or if you are using the old mounting holes, the screws may not hold. Drill a 3/16-in (4.8mm) hole at each screw location, and insert the plastic anchors provided. Then mount the base as described below.
4. Hold the base against the wall. Route the wires through the larger hole adjacent to the terminal block. Position the base for the best appearance (to hide any marks from an old thermostat). Attach the base to the wall with the two screws provided.
   CONNECTING THE WIRES:
5. Clean bare wire ends must be inserted between the black clamp plate and the brass terminal as shown here.
6. Securely tighten all electrical terminal screws (even unused ones).

WIRING INFORMATION

** Complete heating system wiring can be found in the WIRE IDENTIFICATION AND WIRING SCHEMATICS section of this instruction sheet. The schematics show system components for brand new installations or for un-referenced wires.

SETUP OPTIONS

If batteries are presently installed, remove them from the thermostat before proceeding with changing any of the options listed below.
A table similar to the one shown below is printed on the thermostat’s circuit board. There may be minor differences present in some of the wording of your specific model, but the function of each option will be the same.

JUMPER SETTINGS:
There are four (4) headers (or jumpers) located inside the thermostat at the rear of the circuit board. These settings can be changed from their default values by removing its corresponding black jumper cap and reinstalling the cap so that it is positioned on the adjacent pair of metal pins. A change to ANY of the option jumper settings will not be recognized unless the thermostat has been without battery power for at least 2 minutes, and then power is restored again. Each of these jumpers changes a different setup option. The choices for these options are listed in a table printed on the circuit board, and are also printed adjacent to each individual setting jumper.

• JP1 – FURNACE / HEAT PUMP SYSTEM TYPE: This setting is not used on this PSD010Bc model.
• JP2 – FAHRENHEIT OR CELSIUS DISPLAY FORMAT: This setting controls whether the temperature is shown in degrees °F or °C on the LCD display screen.
• JP3 – GAS / ELECTRIC FAN OPERATION: This setting is not used on this PSD010Bc model.
• JP4 – [B] OR [O] TERMINAL USAGE OPTION: This setting is not used on this PSD010Bc model.

Once an optional jumper setting has been performed as described above, please ensure that the thermostat has been without battery power for at least 2 minutes. Now install new batteries into the thermostat. When installing batteries, use two new Energizer® or DURACELL® “AA” size alkaline batteries only. Ensure that the batteries are installed in the proper direction as per the markings shown in the battery tray.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION

Install your new thermostat onto its base. To do this, start with the bottom tilted out towards you at first, and line up the two holes in the top of the thermostat with the two hooks on the top of the back plate. Slowly pivot the bottom of the thermostat towards the back plate and push firmly on the bottom half of the thermostat until it is securely latched to the back plate. If the two thermostat halves do not latch easily, remove and try again. Do not attempt to force them together.

NOTE: Before use, remove the plastic film (if present) that is protecting the LCD display screen.

Turn the electrical power back ON to your heating system. Verify that the system is operating properly. When set to a high temperature, the heating system should provide warm air after a short time in Heat Mode. Usually, sound from the furnace or heating system can be heard while it is running. Your installation is now complete.

FRONT PANEL ITEMS

• SYSTEM MODE SWITCH:
  The MODE switch has two positions: HEAT and OFF. In the winter, set the mode switch to HEAT to control your heating system. In the spring and fall, or when the windows are open, you can set the switch OFF.
• PUSH BUTTONS:
  There are two push buttons to the right of the unit’s display screen.
  These are used to adjust the set point temperature.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT:
  While in HEAT mode, a single press on either the UP or DOWN button causes the word “SET” to appear on the screen. Once “SET” is present, the set temperature value starts flashing and the set point temperature can be altered by pressing either the UP or DOWN button once per degree of change, or by holding either button for at least two seconds to automatically increment the set point quickly in the associated direction. Based upon the relationship of the set temperature to the displayed ambient room temperature, the thermostat will engage the W1 terminal in heat mode, if a temperature demand is present.
• DISPLAY ILLUMINATION:
  Pressing either set temperature button will illuminate the display for easier viewing in dim light conditions. The light will remain on for approximately 12 seconds. While the light is illuminated, pressing any of the three push buttons will continue the lighting and remain on for approximately 12 more seconds.
• MINIMUM RUN/OFF TIME:
  This is determined by the thermostat, and controls the minimum length of time that the thermostat must remain with Heat either On or Off, before it will automatically switch to the alternate On or Off state. This feature prevents rapid or short cycling of the heating equipment. The time amount for this delay is fixed at 5 minutes between on or off load changes.
• ADJUSTABLE TEMPERATURE STOP:
  This model has an Adjustable Temperature Stop. This is a set temperature limit, and is user adjustable in one-degree increments.
  The temperature stop prevents the set temperature from being adjusted to a value that is higher than the temperature stop setting.

BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE

The batteries in the thermostat should be replaced AT LEAST once per year, or sooner if the “LO BAT” battery symbol appears in the lower right portion of the display screen. To replace the batteries in the thermostat, remove the thermostat’s body from the wiring base plate attached to the wall by pressing the thumb latch at the bottom center of the unit and swinging the front body out towards you, up and away from the base. Remove the used batteries from the battery tray and discard them appropriately. Install two new Energizer® or DURACELL®, “AA” size Alkaline batteries into the battery tray. Observe the polarity markings shown in the battery compartment to ensure proper installation. When finished, hang the top of the unit by the tabs at the top corners of the base, and then snap the bottom of the unit into place. Do not use unnecessary force. If the body does not snap into place easily, remove the body, rehang it from the tabs at the top and try again.
