WI--FISETUP AND THERMOSTAT REGISTRATION

The Côrt Thermostat provides you the most features and energy savings when connected to your personal web portal. If your thermostat was not connected during installation, touch Menu > Settings > Register Thermostat then follow the on--screen instructions.

To save time, we recommend having your home Wi--Fi network password and your Internet--connected smartphone, tablet or laptop close to the thermostat before you begin.

Wi--FiSetup

Wi--Fi setup takes about 60 seconds for most installations. Your thermostat will display a list of all visible Wi--Fi networks along with their signal strength. If your network has a weak signal strength, try moving your router closer to the thermostat.

If your network appears in the list:

1. Select your network from the list

2. Touch Next.

3. Enter your password, if prompted.

4. After connecting, your thermostat will register itself with the Carrier servers and provide you with a 4--digit code.

5. Write down the 4--digit code. You will need it when registering your Web Portal account. This code will expire after 1 hour.

If your network is not listed, touch Manually configure Wi--Fi and touch Next (you will have to enter your network parameters manually, including the SSID):

1. If your network is password--protected, enter the password.

2. This will take you through the manual Wi--Fi set--up process where you will have to enter in information about your network such as if it’s DHCP or a static IP, the network SSID name, the encryption, the password etc.

3. After connecting, your thermostat will register itself with the Carrier servers and provide you with a 4--digit code.

4. Write down the 4--digit code. You will need it when registering your Web Portal account. This code will expire after 1 hour.

Touch Next to continue.

HVAC System Mode

The HVAC System settings displayed in the Mode drop--down on the Home Screen and System menu depend on the type of system you have. Depending on your system, one or more the following options are shown:

S Cool: Turn on cooling when the current temperature rises aboveyour setpoint temperature.

S Heat: Turn on heating when the current temperature drops below your setpoint temperature.

S Auto: Activate the heating or cooling system as required to keep your home within the configured range of setpoint temperatures.

S Aux: Only use the auxiliary or backup heat source to maintain the heat set point temperature. This option only appears if auxiliary heat was

configured during installation.

S Off: Turn the system off. When the system is off, only the current temperature and humidity will be displayed on the Home Screen.

A150009

On Thermostat and Smartphone App:

From the Home Screen, touch Mode in the upper right corner of the screen. OR: touch Menu > System > HVAC Operating Mode

S On: Fan runs continuously, regardless of the scheduled programming. The fan will also run if the System Mode is Off.

S Auto: Fan runs when the system is actively heating or cooling your home, or to satisfy the Air Circulation setting.

Air Circulation Mode

Especially useful in mild weather or seasons when your system is not running frequently, you can use this setting to circulate the air in your home even if your system is not heating or cooling. When the fan is in Auto mode, the thermostat operates according to the Air Circulation setting. You can adjust this setting from 0 to 55 minutes.

When your system is in heat or cool mode, the fan will always run for this minimum amount of time. A longer fan runtime increases air circulation and results in a more consistent temperature than with the Auto setting alone, while being more cost--effective than the On setting.

Your thermostat will meet this minimum time over the hour while making sure it never runs for less than five minutes at a time to reduce energy inefficiencies.

On Thermostat and Smartphone App:

1. Touch Menu > Profiles > Air circulation

2. Touch the up or down arrow repeatedly until the desired time is displayed

3. Touch Save

On Web Portal:

1. Select the My System tile

2. Select Fan

3. Use the slider to select the desired time

4. Touch the X in the upper right corner to close the window

Adjusting Comfort Profiles

Your thermostat organizes your temperature and fan settings into different comfort profiles. These profiles are used in your weekly schedule, if you make a change with Touch--N--Go.
