LOC ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes before
turning on the compressor if the heating and cooling system

cooling cycles. This is intended to help protect the compres-
sor from short cycling. Some newer compressors already
have a time delay built in and do not require this feature.

delay occurs it will flash the (snowflake icon) for about five
minutes then turn on the compressor.

7) Select F° or C° Readout - Changes the display readout to

Centigrade or Fahrenheit as required.
