1. Make sure the SYSTEM switch is in the HEAT or COOL position

before programming. The thermostat will not allow
programming in AUTO or OFF modes.

2. Make sure you set the time of day (note AM/PM indicator) and

day of week accurately to ensure correct operation.

3. The program schedule has a winter (HEAT) and a summer (COOL)

program. Both schedules will use the same time settings, but can
have different temperature settings. If you change the time setting
in one program, the opposite program will change also.

4. To control the system, press the SYSTEM switch until HEAT,

COOL or AUTO appears in the display. The thermostat will not
properly control the system to your desired setpoint
temperature unless it is in one of these operating modes.

5. To enter AUTO, you must first be in PROGRAM mode. Press

PROG/MAN button until PROGRAM appears in display. Then
press SYSTEM button to enter AUTO.

6. The QuickSet™ feature programs each individual day

simultaneously with the identical program. Each and every
day can then be individually modified to suit specific
needs/desires.
