Programmed Recovery
PROGRAMMED RECOVERY—
BREAK-THROUGH TECHNOLOGY
SENSES TEMPERATURE MORE LIKE YOU DO
Your new thermostat is so smart, it’s almost human.
■ Your body perceives temperature from a variety of
sources, not only from the air in the zone, but also from
your surroundings—walls, windows and furnishings.
■ Human beings feel differences in temperature as
slight as two degrees Fahrenheit.
■ Common household thermometers and standard
thermostats sense only air temperature, which may
or may not reflect how hot or cold the zone actually
feels to a human being.
■ Your new thermostat reads the temperature of the wall
as well as the air—and responds to temperature
changes as little as one degree Fahrenheit—so zone
temperature is more likely to feel right to you and
your family.
THE OPTIMUM COMFORT AND ENERGY SAVINGS
M168
SOLUTION
This thermostat is actually a small but powerful
■
computer.
When calculating the exact time to turn on
your furnace or air conditioner, it considers: (1) air
temperature, (2) temperature of the wall and (3) when
you want the comfort temperature established.

■
During programmed recovery, the thermostat
gradually increases the control temperature and
turns the equipment on and off
energy by avoiding
temperature. You can see the current control
temperature anytime during recovery by pressing the
PRESENT SETTING key.
This smart control learns from experience
■
checks how closely it
recovery start time accordingly.
It typically takes four to eight days after installation for
this thermostat to adjust to the weather, your life style,
overshooting
hit the target
several times to save
the comfort
. Each day it
and adjusts the
home construction and heating/cooling system. The
thermostat calculates the LEAVE/RETURN recovery
separately from the SLEEP/WAKE recovery.
IMPORTANT:
With Programmed Recovery, program the
times when you want your home comfortable. The
thermostat will decide how early to begin the
temperature changes.
NOTE: Some models will show 32° F instead of the current
temperature, indicating the thermostat is operating on
backup batteries until the thermostat is mounted on the
wallplate and the system is powered.

Programming Your Thermostat
The thermostat can be programmed in your hand
before it is installed or after it is on the wall if you make
sure the batteries are installed. If you need to install or
replace the batteries, refer to the Maintaining Your
Thermostat section.
Your thermostat can be programmed for seven days
(separate programs for each day of the week).
PROGRAMMING
The personal programming chart can be helpful for
plannng your program schedule of time and temperature
settings for various times of the day.
Four time periods are available:
MORNING is the time period when you want the zone
at a comfortable temperature to begin the day. (This
will be a higher temperature during the heating
season, or a lower temperature during the cooling
season.) This is the only period that must contain a
time and temperature for every day.
MIDDAY is the time period you can set for an energy-
saving temperature while the zone is unoccupied.
(This will be a lower temperature during the heating
season, or a higher temperature during the cooling
season.)
EVENING is the time period when you want the zone
at a comfortable temperature for family activities in
the evening.
NIGHT is the time period you can set for an energy-
saving temperature while you are sleeping or the
zone is unoccupied. Set it to start at your family’s
normal bedtime. (For more comfortable sleeping in
the cooling season, some people choose not to
raise the cooling temperature during the night.)
You can set a different schedule for each day of the
week because your requirements will probably be
different for each day.
Fill in the times and temperatures you desire for each
day of the week. If you decide not to program the
6 69-0819
thermostat, it will automatically control heating from
6:00 AM to 10:00 PM at 70° F [21° C]. The temperature
will be 60° F [16° C] from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM. Cooling is
automatically controlled at 78° F [26° C] 24 hours a day.
Also, you do not need to enter a time and temperature
program for all periods if your schedule does not require
it. For example, a zone that is occupied Monday and
Tuesday only requires programs for MORNING and
NIGHT.
IMPORTANT:
Always press the keys with your finger or
similar blunt tool. Use of sharp instruments like a
pen or pencil point can damage the keyboard.
If you make an error at any time during programming,
just press the RUN PROGRAM key, and continue at the
step where you left off.
