General Programming Operation:
5-1-1 programming allows you to create a heating schedule that is specific
to your needs: weekdays, Saturday, and Sunday. Weekdays are a single
unit, meaning the program schedule will be the same for Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Saturday and Sunday can
each have individual programs. Every weekday, Saturday, or Sunday
program has 4 daily settings: WAKE, LEAVE, RETURN, and SLEEP.

✦ WAKE: The desired room temperature and time the heating period

should begin when you are present in the morning. If desired, allow
15 minutes prior to wake time for the room to reach comfort level.

✦ LEAVE: The time and the lower desired temperature you would like your

room to be when you leave for the day. This is an energy saving period.

✦ RETURN: The desired room temperature and time the heating period

should begin when you are present in the evening. If desired, allow
15 minutes prior to your return time for the room to reach comfort level.

✦ SLEEP: The time and the lower desired temperature you would like

your room to be while you sleep. This is an energy saving period.

Each setting needs to be programmed with a time and temperature.
Programming begins by directing you to set the time of day for the 4 daily
settings for weekdays, Saturday, and Sunday. Once all times have been set,
the program will direct you to set the temperatures for the 4 daily settings for
weekdays, Saturday, and Sunday. Setpoint range: 41°F to 86°F (5°C to 30°C).

Operation Modes:

✦ The AUTOmatic mode runs the programmed sequence recorded by

the user. Use this mode when daily comfort needs and routine are in
accordance with the recorded program.

✦ The MANUAL mode overrides the recorded program sequence. Use

this mode when out of town or when maintaining a certain tempera-
ture set point for an extended period of time is desired. Setting the
manual temperature to a cool set point of 62 degrees or less helps
reduce energy costs. The MANUAL mode stays active until the
AUTOmatic program is activated.

✦ The Temporary Setpoint overrides the programmed temperature when

AUTO mode is activated. Set a Temporary Setpoint when changing
the temperature for a given period of the day. The setpoint will stay
active until the next programmed period for the given day.

Energy Saving Tips:
Here are a few tips to maximize energy saving capabilities:

✦ When programming, always set the temperature back for a minimum

of 8 hours when away from home or asleep.

✦ Each 2-degree decrease for an 8 hour period is equivalent to a 2% savings.
✦ Maximize the 8 hour temperature set back by reducing the setpoint

8 to 10 degrees from your preferred comfort setpoint.

✦ Use the manual mode to set and hold the temperature back 8 degrees

or more while on vacation.

✦ Or, maintain default program. The thermostat comes equipped with

an energy saving program, as outlined in the “Default Settings” table.

* The SMART-BASE thermostat has been simulated to offer the best
performance for a built-in control. The concept is to simulate a midpoint
temperature of the room, respond to this setting, and maintain it for
optimum comfort. However, keep in mind that temperature variances to
this reading could be affected by drafts within the wall area, cold air from
flooring or drafts from a nearby window or door.

The default schedule only applies at
the first start of the microprocessor.
When the thermostat has been
programmed, the default values no
longer apply.

Before you program your thermostat, take a moment and write a program
suitable to your needs and schedule. You will need to know this before
programming thethermostat. Use the default settings guide above as
a guideline.

Programmed values are retained if the
heater power is interrupted or turned
OFF. Once the power is restored, the
thermostat will be in AUTO mode.
However, the clock and day of the
week will require reprogramming.
