PROGRAMMING

PROGRAMMING YOUR THERMOSTAT

This section will help you plan your thermostat’s program to
meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep
the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.
• When heating (cooling) your building, program the

temperatures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is
vacant or during periods of low activity.

• During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually

minimal.

Planning Your Program

Look at the factory preprogrammed times and temperatures
shown in the sample schedule. If this program will suit your
needs, simply press the RUN/HOLD button to begin running
the factory preset program.
If you want to change the preprogrammed times and
temperatures, follow these steps.
Determine the time periods and temperatures for your program.
You must program four periods for each day. However, you
may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for
consecutive time periods. You can choose start times, heating
temperatures, and cooling temperatures independently (for
example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70° as the daily

1st

period heating start time and temperature, and also choose
7:00 AM and 76° as the daily

1st period cooling start time

and temperature).
Use the table to plan your program time periods and the
temperatures you want during each period. Fill in the complete
table to have a record of your programs.
