69-0628B-1
Welcome to the world of energy savings with your new Honeywell fuel saver thermostat. The
Honeywell name is your assurance of accurate control and reliable operation for years to come.
Your new thermostat will automatically lower and raise the temperature in your home one or
more times every 24 hours. This allows you to significantly lower your fuel costs, while awakening
(or returning home) to a comfortable temperature.
Read this manual to learn how to use your new thermostat.

Setting Subbase Switches
(If applicable)
The subbase system switch controls system
operation as follows:
HEAT—Heating system is controlled by the
thermostat. Cooling system is off.
COOL—Cooling system is controlled by the
thermostat. Heating system is off.
OFF—Both the heating and cooling systems
are off. If the fan switch is at the AUTO
position, the fan is also off.
AUTO—In a cooling only application, only
cooling operates. In a heating only applica-
tion, only heating operates.
The subbase fan switch controls fan operation
as follows:
ON—Fan operates continuously.
AUTO—Fan operates with cooling equipment
as controlled by the thermostat or with the
heating equipment as controlled by the
plenum fan switch. In electric heat, heat
pump, and fan coil systems, the fan is
controlled by the thermostat in heating and
cooling.
To switch positions, use thumb or index
finger to slide lever to desired position. For
proper circuit operation, stop switch lever in the
detent over desired function indicator mark.

Inserting Clock Batteries
Power is supplied to the clock by the 24 Vac
transformer, by two AAA alkaline batteries
(included), or by the heating or cooling control
circuit. Backup batteries can be installed to
supply power to the clock if power is interrupted
when using 24 Vac powering method. Install
batteries in thermostat as shown in Fig. 2. Once
a year or when batteries are dead, replace with
two new AAA alkaline batteries. We recommend Energizer
®
batteries.

Setting the Clock
Lift thermostat flip-up cover and you will find
the 24-hour program dial, slotted in ten minute
increments. Adjust the clock to the current time
by moving the minute hand carefully in a clockwise direction. DO NOT reverse the
minute hand.
When time is correctly set, the Time Indicator Arrow (see Fig. 3) points to the correct time
and corresponding daytime (light) or nighttime
(dark) band of the program dial.

ends, carefully move the minute hand in a
clockwise direction 23 hours. Do NOT
reverse the minute hand, or damage to the timer
mechanism can occur.

Programming
You can program your thermostat to
automatically lower and raise the temperature
one or more times every 24 hours, depending
on the number of program pins used.
Before setting your program
Lift thermostat flip-up cover and you will find
the 24-hour program dial. The slots on the
program dial (Fig. 4) are for the program pins
that can be inserted at ten minute intervals.
Three red and three blue program pins are
included with your thermostat. The red pins start
the high-temperature period; the blue pins start
the low-temperature period. A heating program
has been preprogrammed. A red pin is inserted
at 6:00 AM for high temperature (comfort period);
a blue pin is inserted at 10:00 PM for low
temperature (energy saving period). Two
additional sets of pins are located in the program
pin storage area. You can set up to six temperature changes with the pins supplied. We
recommend at least five hours for each energy
saving period.
To change the pins or add a new energy
savings period—
• To insert a pin, push it straight into the selected
notch on the program dial until it is completely
seated.
• To remove a pin, press against the program dial
and pull the pin straight out. DO NOT attempt to
change a pin if it is engaged with the program
index wheel.
• On heating/cooling systems, you must reset the
pins when the seasons change. You will also
probably want to change the lever positions.
