LOCKOUT BYPASS OPTION
FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIANS’ USE
ONLY. OPERATORS SHOULD NOT USE THIS FEA-
TURE DUE TO POSSIBILITY OF EQUIPMENT OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR PERSONAL INJURY.
COMPRESSOR SHORT TERM
CYCLE PROTECTION
During normal operation, this thermostat has a built-in
short term (5-minute) time delay. During this 5-minute
period, the thermostat will lock out the compressor to
allow head pressure to stabilize. If you want to over-
ride this feature while testing thermostat operation,
simply press and buttons at the same time with
the SYSTEM switch in the OFF position.
DO NOT USE THE LOCKOUT BYPASS OPTION
UNLESS THE COMPRESSOR OIL HEATERS HAVE
BEEN OPERATIONAL FOR 6 HOURS AND THE
SYSTEM HAS NOT BEEN OPERATIONAL FOR AT
LEAST 5 MINUTES.
If the fan is running but the compressor is not running and
the display has CL flashing, the compressor lockout feature
is operating (see Lockout Bypass Option to temporarily
override the compressor lockout feature during testing).
3. Press to adjust temperature setting above room tempera-
ture. The cooling system should stop operating.
