NEW & IMPROVED FEATURES
Your new electronic thermostat has been made even better by the
introduction of several new and improved features. Building on its
reputation for efficient and dependable operation, your thermostat
now offers the following list of enhancements.
Thermostat and Sensor Calibration

sensors. Simply press and hold the FAN button for 10 seconds
and adjust with the

GENERAL INFORMATION
The thermostat normally displays room temperature, mode of
operation and whether cooling or heating is currently on. The
six buttons on the front of the unit allow complete control of
your equipment.
You may select different heating and cooling setpoints for the
system to maintain, e.g., 70° in heating and 75° in cooling.
Raising or lowering the setpoints in heating or cooling is as sim-
ple as pushing a button. In addition, you may choose to display
the temperature in °F or °C.
The thermostat also allows you to select continuous fan operation
(useful when using an air cleaner) or have the fan come on with
the equipment.

but there is no indication of this on the display. To select continu-
ous fan operation, press the FAN button and the display will

TEMPORARY TEMPERATURE OVERRIDE WITH
KEYPAD LOCKED
(The keypad may be locked to prevent tampering by selecting the
ON position of DIP switch #4.)
If the keypad is locked to prevent tampering you may still tem-
porarily adjust the setpoint by ± 3° F or ± 3° C of the pro-
grammed day setpoint. Press the
¨ or § button to raise or lower
the setpoint for a 1-hour period.
OFF MODE
To turn off the heating or cooling system, press the MODE button
until the word OFF appears on the LCD. It will remain displayed
until the mode is changed. The OFF mode prevents the system

You may set the thermostat to automatically switch from HEAT-
ING to COOLING mode by pressing the MODE button until the
word AUTO and both the heating

and cooling

icons appear
