Congratulations!
Your new thermostat will provide years of reliable service. By saving energy, your
thermostat will pay for itself during its first season of use. Thanks you for buying our
product!
Please read this manual for complete instructions on installing and operating your
thermostat. If you require further assistance, please feel free to contact us
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1. This thermostat is designed to work on the following systems:
y Gas – Standing Pilot y Oil – Fired Furnace
y Gas – Electronic Ignition y Single Stage Heat Pumps –
y Gas – Fired Boilers y Electric Air Conditioning
y Gas – Millivolt Systems y Electric Furnace
y Oil – Fired Boilers
This thermostat will NOT control multistage heat pumps or 110/220V baseboard
electric heating systems.
2. Temperature Range
This thermostat can be programmed between 45˚F and 95˚F (7˚C and 35˚C). However,
it will display room temperatures from 30˚F to 99˚F (0˚C and 37˚C). “HI” will be
displayed if the temperature is higher than 99˚F (37˚C), and “LO” will be displaye d if
the temperature is lower than 30˚F (0˚C).
This thermostat will automatically cutoff in Heat mode if the temperature rises above
95˚F (35˚C), and automatically cutoff in Cool mode if the temperature drops below
45˚F (7˚C).
3. Compressor Protection
This thermostat provides a 4 minutes delay after shutting off the cooling system before
it can be restarted. This feature will prevent damage to your compressor caused b y
rapid cycling. It does not prevent a rapid compressor restart due to short power
outages.
4. Battery Warning
Two fresh AA alkaline batteries should provide well over one year of service. However,
when the batteries become drained, the Low Battery Indicator will flas h on the display.
When this message occurs, install new alkaline batteries. You have approximately 1
minute to change the batteries and keep the thermos tat’s clock and program settings.
Once the batteries have become too low to ensure prope r operation, your system will
be turned off, and the display will be cleared except for flashing Lo w Battery Indicator
on the LCD display.
CAUTION: When only the Low Battery icon flashes on the display, the
thermostat is shut down, and your system will no longer operate. In
this condition, there is no temperature control of your dwelling.
NOTE: The backlight will not function when the thermostat is in low
battery condition.

Error Mode
If the thermostat is unable to control your system due to an
unexpected battery problem, the thermostat will enter Error

operation.
If Error Mode returns, please call us for further information.
Auto Cut Off
Your thermostat will automatically cutoff in Heat mode if the room temperature rises
above 95˚F (35˚C). It will cutoff in Cool mode if the room temperature drops below 45˚F

Selector Switches
In order for this thermostat to control your system, the s ystem type must be s pecified
by the selector switches on the printed circuit board inside the thermostat. There is
also a selector switch for your choice of Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature display.

Your thermostat is set for F˚ mode from the factory. In order to ch
slide the switch to C˚ and Move the battery out and wait for about 1 minute the n place
the batteries ..
NOTE: Unless press any key about 2 seconds without the battery, then place the
battery again. the thermostat will not change temperature mode. All programs an
settings will be lost .
y Heating System Selector (HG – HE switch)
The factory position for this switch is in the “HG” position. Leave in this position if you
have a gas furna
ce or an oil burner. If you have an electric furnace, test to see whether
the Heat and Fan come on as expected after installation. If the Fan operation is normal,
leave it in the “HG” position. If the Fan does not come on within a minute of the
thermostat calling for he
ating, change the switch position to “HE”. The system selector
has no effect in the cooling mode.
NOTE: “HG” position is for gas and most other systems. “HE” position is for certain
electric systems having a fan relay.
y System Selector (STANDARD – HEAT PUMP switch)
The factory position for this switch is in the STD position. Leave it in this position if you
have ANY system that uses gas, oil, electric, or hot water heating. If you have a
single-stage Heat Pump (no auxiliary
or emergency heat source), then slide the switch
to the HP position. Be sure the reversing valve wire is connected to the correct terminal
for your heat pump (Y/O) or (W/B).
y Auto Recovery selector (DISABLE/ENABLE)
Your thermostat is set from the factory with the Auto Recovery Feature enabled, which
complies with the EPA ENERGY STAR Program. IF you prefer to use normal recovery,
