INSTALLATION

TOOLS REQUIRED

Small regular screwdriver

LOCATION

Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as in

a corner or an alcove; or behind an open door.

Do not install it where there are unusual heating

conditions, such as: in direct sunlight; near a lamp,
television, radiator, register, or fireplace; near hot water
pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of the
wall.

Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as:

on a wall separating an unheated room; or in a draft
from a stairwell, door, or window.

Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to

corrosion that will shorten thermostat life.

Do not install the unit until all construction work and

painting has been completed.

PREPARING THE UNIT

1. The WIN100 comes with (2) G13A size 1.5V Alkaline
Button Cell Batteries already installed. These batteries
power the clock only during normal operation. They also
provide backup power to retain the thermostats
programs and settings while it is not plugged into the
wall. In order to "activate" them, you must remove the
black ribbon from between the two batteries prior to
using it. Use a small regular screwdriver to pry open the
battery holder and pull out the black ribbon.

W A R N I N G :

If any plugs do not fit into the receptacle that you

are trying to plug into, Stop, the WIN100 is not
designed for this application.

If the cord you are plugging into the WIN100 only

has 2 prongs, STOP, not having
a ground wire is unsafe
. Your
Window Air Conditioner or Spacer
Heater must have a plug with 3
prongs on it.

5. Plug the WIN100 straight into a 110 Volt electrical
outlet on the wall nearest your Air Conditioning Unit or
Space Heater.
6. Plug in the electrical cord from your Window Air
Conditioner or Space Heater directly into the front of the
WIN100.

COMPLETING YOUR INSTALLATION

7. Configure your thermostat at this time. Refer to
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
8. Turn the ON/OFF switch on the upper right side to
the ON position.
9. Turn on your Air Conditioner or Space Heater and
turn the thermostat all the way up. (This will allow the
WIN100 to control the room temperature and maintain a
specific temperature)
10.Verify that the Window Air Conditioner or Space
Heater and its fan are operating properly. When set to a
high temperature, the heating system should provide
warm air after a short time. Likewise, a cooling system
should provide cool air after a short time. Usually sound
can be heard while they are running. The rush of moving
air should be heard within a short time after either has
been started.
11.Your installation is now complete.

OPERATING BASICS

HOLD

Hold is the simplest method to maintain fixed set
temperatures.

Press HOLD once to enter the temperature HOLD

while in RUN or OVERRIDE. HOLD will be displayed on
the bottom of the display.

Pressing this button again will toggle HOLD off and

return the unit to RUN and the programmed set
temperature.

Changing system mode or rotating the SPEED DIAL

®

DOWN key to adjust the set temperature by one degree
in the associated direction. Holding the key will
automatically advance the setting in the associated
direction.

The OVERRIDE will be canceled at the start of the

next program period, and the temperature setting will
return to its programmed value.

An OVERRIDE may be terminated by rotating the dial,

switching the mode to OFF, or initiating a Hold.

Adjusting the set temperature to its program value will

also cancel an OVERRIDE.

PROGRAMMING

EDITING HEAT OR COOL PROGRAMS

The WIN100 provides two separate programs, one for

heating and the other for cooling. Each program has
separate settings for weekdays and weekends. Every
day a program cycles through four independent periods.
You can use the default programs or alter them to suit
your schedule.

DEFAULT TEMPERATURE PROGRAM

As supplied from the factory, the following ENERGY

STAR

®

approved program will be used for temperature

control in RUN MODE. This program and all other
software settings may be restored to their default values
via a SOFTWARE RESET.

TEMPERATURE VARIATION / SWING

Your thermostat works by turning your heating or

cooling system on and off whenever the room
temperature varies a certain number of degrees from
the set-point temperature. This variation is the
"swing". Your system should cycle on about 3 to 6
times per hour. A smaller swing number increases the
number of cycles, so room temperature is more
constant. A larger swing number decreases the
number of cycles, saving energy in most cases.

SWING ADJUSTMENT

This setting controls when the heating or cooling

turns on and off.

The Swing setting sets the temperature variation the

system allows above or below the set temperature
before turning on the heating or Cooling. To change
this value:
1. Rotate the SPEED DIAL

®

to RUN.

2. Press NEXT and HOLD simultaneously. The
Temperature section of the display shows a single digit
number between 1 and 9.

BATTERIES/MAINTENANCE

The WIN100 comes with (2) G13A size 1.5V Alkaline

Button Cell Batteries. During normal use, these
batteries are used for the clock only. However, they
also serve as backup power to retain your programs
and settings if you unplug it from the wall. These (2)
batteries will need to be changed once every year. The
thermostat will alert you when the batteries are low by
displaying "LO BATT" in the display.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

1. Remove fresh batteries from their carton.
2. Remove the thermostat from the electrical outlet.
3. Use a small regular screwdriver to remove the
battery cartridge from the back of the thermostat. Use
the small regular screwdriver to remove the 2 batteries
from the holder.
