IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
for your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
safEty PRECautions
■This Zoneline must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. See the Installation Instructions in the back
of this manual.
■Replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the manufacturer and not repaired.
Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either the plug or connector end.
■Unplug or disconnect the Zoneline at the fuse box or circuit breaker before making any repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by a qualified individual.
■These R410A air conditioning systems require contractors and technicians to use tools, equipment and safety standards approved for use with this refrigerant. DO NOT use equipment certified for R22 refrigerant only.

TEMP CONTROL FAN, MODE & SLEEP OPERATION
Controls
Temp Control
The temp control is used to maintain the room temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off to keep the room at the same level
of comfort.
Press the ▲ pad to raise the temperature. Press the ▼ pad to lower the temperature.
NOTE: The display shows the set temperature, not the room temperature.
Sleep
Press to set the air conditioner to run for 8 hours before it automatically returns to the previous setting.
When in the cooling mode and the sleep timer is set, the set temperature will automatically increase 2°F after the second hour then 1°F each hour over the next two hours. Also, the fan speed will change to low. When in the heating mode, the set temperature will decrease in the same manner.
To cancel the sleep mode, press the MODE pad or the SLEEP pad a second time.
Fan, Mode and Operation Control
FAN—Sets the fan operation for HIGH, LOW or AUTO speed. When set at AUTO, it automatically switches between LOW and HIGH as room temperature changes.
MODE—COOL—For cooling
FAN—For fan-only operation HEAT—For heating
OPERATION—ON/STOP—Turns the unit on or off. Power remains connected to the Zoneline. The Freeze/Heat Sentinel features still function if active.See the freezer/Heat sentinel section on page 6.
NOTE: the temperature display will flash to indicate a possible unit malfunction. set
operation control to STOP and then restart the unit. if the flashing light reappears within 30 minutes, call for service.
Quick Heat Recovery
Activates each time the thermostat is switched from STOP or COOL mode to HEAT mode. Electric heaters are energized until the thermostat set point
is reached. On heat pump models, the heat pump operation will resume at the next call for heat.
About Your Heat Pump (6100 Series only)
Heat pumps can save money by removing heat from the outside air—even when the outside temperature is below freezing—and releasing that heat indoors.
To get the best performance from your heat pump, don’t change the room thermostat very often. Raising the heat setting 2–3 degrees will cause the Zoneline to use its electric heating elements in
order to reach the new temperature setting quickly.
There is a 3-minute minimum compressor
run time at any setting to prevent short cycling.
The indoor fan motor starts before the compressor and stops after the compressor cycles off.
When the outdoor temperature is lower than 25°F, heat is provided by the electric heater in the air conditioner instead of by the heat pump.
The electric heating elements use much |
|
more electricity than heat pumps and cost |
3 |
more to operate. |

Auxiliary controls on your Zoneline.
External Fan (Obtained locally)
When connected, an auxiliary or external fan can be controlled with the indoor fan motor on the Zoneline. Connections provide 24 V AC to energize a remote relay, turning on the external fan.
Central Desk Control
When connected, the unit can be turned ON or OFF with a switch located at the Central Control Panel. A separate wire pair must be run from each separate controlling switch to each individual Zoneline.
Refer to MODE 2 on page 5 for fan setting options.
Remote Thermostat
When connected to a remote thermostat, the indoor air temperature sensing is shifted from the unit to the remote thermostat. For this reason, the units will operate slightly differently when connected to a remote thermostat. The following chart shows the unit operation when connected to a remote thermostat.
NOTE: The Class 2 Mode setting (Mode 6) must be set to ON " " for the unit to operate with a Class 2 Remote Wall Thermostat. (See the installation instructions supplied with the remote thermostat and Mode instructions on page 7.)
Class 2 Shown ON
IMPORTANT: The Zoneline thermostat connections provide 24 V AC only.
If using a digital/electronic wall thermostat, you must set it to the 24 V AC setting. See the Installation Instructions for the wall thermostat.
CAUTION:
Damage to a wall thermostat or to the Zoneline electronics can result from improper connections. Special care must be used in connecting the wires. No line voltage connections should be made to any circuit. Isolate all wires in building from line voltage.
