Owners Manual Model 47110A

Congratulations!

Your new Hunter thermostat will provide years of reliable service. By saving energy,
your thermostat will pay for itself during its first season of use. Thank you for buying
a Hunter product!

Please read this manual for complete instructions on installing and operating your thermo­stat. If you require further assistance, call Hunter Technical Support at 1-866-268-1936 from
8am to 5pm Central Time.

Before starting, remove the mylar label from the LCD display.

Wire Labeling

■ Each wire coming from the wall to the existing thermostat is connected to a terminal
point on that thermostat. Each of these terminal points is usually marked with a code
letter as shown in Table A below.

■ The number of wires in your system can be as few as two (for heat only systems), as
many as eight, or any number in between. If you follow the labeling procedures correctly,
you do not have to be concerned about how many wires there are.

■ There is often no terminal marking on the existing thermo­stat of two wire, heat only systems. Just connect either of the
wires to the RH terminal, then connect the other wire to the
W terminal to complete the circuit.

■

IMPORTANT! BEFORE DISCONNECTING ANY WIRES, APPLY
THE SELF-ADHESIVE LABELS PROVIDED TO THE WIRE AS
SHOWN IN TABLE A BELOW. (For example, attach the label
marked W to the wire that goes to the W or H terminal on
your existing thermostat.) IGNORE THE COLOR OF THE
WIRES since these do not always comply with the standard.

■ After labeling wires, disconnect them from the existing thermostat terminals.

■ Remove existing wallplate. To make sure wires do not fall back into wall opening, you

may want to tape them to the wall.

■ If hole in wall is larger than necessary for wires, seal this hole with insulating material so
that no hot or cold air can enter the back of the thermostat from the wall. This air could
cause a false thermostat reading.

■ Insert the bottom tab on the thermostat body into the slot at the bottom of the
wallplate. Press the top of the thermostat body to snap it into the wallplate. Refer to
Figure 6. (NOTE: Do not force the thermostat onto the wallplate, as the

terminal pins may be damaged. If it does not snap properly, the thermostat
may not work.)

■ Insert the two AA size alkaline batteries, observing the polarity marked inside the battery
compartment.

■ Switch on the main power at the panel or furnace.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1. This thermostat is designed to work on the following systems:

Gas - Standing Pilot Electric Furnace
Gas - Electronic Ignition Electric Air Conditioning
Gas - Fired Boilers
Gas - Milivolt Systems This thermostat will NOT control single-stage or
Oil - Fired Boilers multi-stage heat pumps or 110/220 V baseboard
Oil - Fired Furnace electric heating systems.

2. Temperature Range

This thermostat can be programmed between 7˚C and 35˚C (45˚F and 95˚F). It will display
room temperatures from 0˚C and 37˚C (30˚F to 99˚F). “HI” will be displayed if the tempera­ture is higher than 37˚C (99˚F), and “LO” will be displayed if the temperature is lower than
0˚C (30˚F).

This thermostat will automatically cut-off in Heat mode if the temperature rises above 35˚C
(95˚F), and automatically cut-off in Cool mode if the temperature drops below 4˚C (40˚F).

3. Compressor Protection

This thermostat provides a 3.5 minute delay after shutting off the cooling system
before it can be restarted. This feature will prevent damage to your compressor
caused by 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 flash on the display.
When this message occurs, install new alkaline batteries. You have approximately 1
minute to change the batteries and keep thermostat’s clock and program settings. Once
the batteries have become too low to ensure proper operation, your system will be
turned Off, and the display will be cleared except for flashing Low Battery Indicator on
the LCD display.

CAUTION: When only the 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: If you plan to be away from the premises over 30 days, we recommend
that you replace the old batteries with new alkaline batteries prior to leaving.

Table A

NOTE: Do not connect a “Common” wire (sometimes labeled “C”) to any terminal
on this thermostat. Tape up the wire and do not use. This wire provides electricity
to non-battery powered thermostats.

Mount Wallplate and Thermostat

■ Remove the wallplate from your thermostat by pressing the release tab on the bottom of
the thermostat. See Figure 2.

■ Position wallplate on wall and pull existing wires through large opening. Then level for
appearance. Mark holes for plastic anchors provided, if your existing holes do not line up
with those on the Hunter wallplate.

■ Drill holes with 3/16” bit and gently tap anchors into the holes until flush with wall.

■ Reposition wallplate to wall, pulling wires through large opening. Insert mounting

screws provided into wall anchor and tighten. See Figure 3.

Figure 3

NOTE: 5-wire Systems

If your thermostat has one wire marked R or RH (2, 3, or 4-wire system), then leave the
jumper wire between the RH and RC terminals on the wallplate. Otherwise, if you have
separate RH and RC wires (5-wire system), then remove the jumper wire between the RH
and RC terminals.

Connect Wires and Mount Thermostat to Wallplate

■ Match and connect the labeled wires to the appropriate coded terminal screws on the
wallplate. (See Figure 4, 5.) Ignore any wires which may be present, but which were not
connected to the old thermostat.

■ Refer to the Wiring Diagrams below to be sure your system is wired correctly.

■ Be sure to tighten the terminal screws securely, otherwise a loose wire could cause

operational problems with your system or thermostat.

■ Push excess wire back into the hole to prevent interference when installing the thermo­stat to the wallplate.

■ Make sure the System Switch is set to OFF, and the Fan Switch is set to AUTO.

Selector Switches

In order for this thermostat to control your system, the system type must be specified by the
selector switches on the printed circuit board inside the thermostat.

■ Heating System Selector (HG - HE switch)

The factory position for this switch is in the “HG” position. Leave it in this position if you
have a gas furnace 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 heat, 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.

■ 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
slide the switch to the DISABLE position.

1 second.

To end the Permanent Manual Override:

■ Press again. The thermostat will return to the current program, and the
HOLD display will be canceled.

Filter Change Indicator

Your thermostat measures the number of hours your heating and cooling system has been
in use. To maximize your system’s performance and energy efficiency, change or clean your
filter regularly.

■ When the total system runtime for
heat and cool reaches 400 hours,
the Filter Change Indicator will
flash as a reminder to check your
system’s filter.

system’s filter, press and hold the
Filter Key for 3 seconds. The dis­play will blink, and the timer will
be reset to zero.

Note: Pressing the Filter Key at any time for less than 3 seconds will cause the
Filter indicator to appear on the LCD. This is only to confirm key operation, and the
timer is not affected unless the key is held for greater than 3 seconds.

SPAN Setting Mode

Your thermostat is set at the factory to cycle at 0.5˚C (1°F) above and below the set
temperature. (Span = 2) This setting has been designed to provide a comfortable room
temperature under most all conditions. However, if you find your system cycling too fast
or too slow, then the Span can be adjusted to modify the cycle time.

■ Press and hold BOTH for three
seconds. The display will flash, and
SPAN will be displayed on the LCD.

■ Press to raise the Span to 3. This
setting INCREASES the cycle time by
allowing your system to run
LONGER.

■ Press to lower the Span to 1. This
setting DECREASES the cycle time
by causing your system to run
SHORTER.

The Span settings remain the same for both HEAT and COOL.
The Span can be changed at any time, and is independent of program times or

temperatures.
When batteries are installed in the thermostat, or the Reset key is pressed, the Span is reset

back to setting 2.

Low Battery Warning

Your thermostat has a two-stage low battery warning
system. When the batteries are first detected to be
weak, the first stage low battery warning is indicated
by battery symbol flashing on the LCD display. At your
earliest convenience, you need to replace the batteries
with 2 new AA alkaline batteries.

When the batteries become too weak for normal
operation, the thermostat enters the second stage
low battery warning which shuts down the thermo­stat. In this condition, “BATT” flashes alone on the
display, and the thermostat will turn your system
Off. Your system will remain shut-off until the bat­teries are replaced.

Note: The thermostat will still keep the current time and your programs in memory
until new batteries are installed. After confirming that new batteries have been
inserted, the thermostat will return to normal operation.

Auto Recovery

Hunter’s Auto Recovery feature meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency
by allowing the heating or cooling system to recover gradually from an energy-saving
setpoint temperature to a comfort setpoint temperature.

Auto Recovery calculates how early to turn your system back On, so that the room tempera­ture is already comfortable by the start of the comfort temperature program period. Auto
Recovery works in both Heat and Cool modes.

■ When the thermostat is in Auto Recovery mode, the
display will alternate “RECO” with time, and the
program indicator will flash.

■ Auto Recovery can be disabled by sliding the Recov­ery switch on the circuit board to disable.

■ Auto Recovery will not operate if Permanent hold or
Temporary hold is in operation.

■ Auto Recovery can be canceled manually if
HOLD / RETURN is pressed during the recovery
process.

■ Auto Recovery will be canceled and change to Tempo­rary Manual Override mode if the setpoint is adjusted
during the recovery process.

Error Mode

If the thermostat is unable to control your system
due to an unexpected battery problem, the thermo­stat will enter Error Mode. In this condition, the
thermostat flashes “Err” on the LCD display, and
shuts off your system. To correct this problem, replace
the batteries with 2 new AA alkaline batteries, even
if you have recently replaced them. Next, use a
paper clip to press the RESET button next to the
keypad. You will need to reprogram your thermostat
and confirm normal operation.

If Error Mode returns, please call Hunter Technical support at 1-866-268-1936 for further
information.

Auto Cut Off

Your thermostat will automatically cut-off in Heat mode if the room temperature rises above
35˚C (95°F). It will cut-off in Cool mode if the room temperature drops below 4˚C (40°F).

Note that if your system has malfunctioned and no longer responds to thermostat controls,
the Auto Cut-Off will have no effect.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience any other problems, call 1-866-268-1936 from 8 AM to 5 PM Central Time
for technical assistance.
