NOTE:
The installer can reset the thermostat and bypass the compressor protection
features by pressing the RESET button. This will erase all entered programs, current time
of day, day of week and other user settings and should only be used during installation
for testing purposes or to reset a thermostat to regain normal operation. This will return
all thermostat settings to their default values. The user will have to re-program all of the
erased settings.
Compressor Protection
5.6
Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)
This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential
damage to the cooling system from short cycling. This thermostat automatically provides a
5-minute delay after turning off the cooling system output to protect the compressor.
This thermostat is equipped with a special feature to maximize your energy savings by
utilizing the most effective source of heating or cooling to meet your program needs during
recovery from setback (or setup) temperatures. Our Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)
feature is designed to automatically calculate when to turn your first stage of your multi-
stage heating or cooling system to meet your upcoming comfort setpoint temperature
setting. While in normal operating mode, this feature will start calculating the start time for
your first stage two hours prior to the upcoming comfort setpoint temperature. During this
two hour time period it will monitor performance and control your system staging
requirements. The second (auxiliary) stage of heating will be available during this 2-hour
period if required to meet extraordinary heating requirements.

Low Battery Detection and Replacement
Replacing the Batteries
1. Open the thermostat cover and locate the battery compartment door.
2. Gently remove the two "AA" alkaline batteries located in the battery compartment.
3. Install two new "AA" alkaline batteries into battery compartment. Make sure to match
the positive (+) ends of the batteries with the positive (+) terminals located in the battery
compartment.
4. Close battery compartment and verify that the low battery indicator does not appear in
the display.
The Reset feature allows the user to completely reset the thermostat to register new manual
switch settings.
1. To erase all entered programs, current time of day, day of week and other user settings,
gently press the
RESET button using a paper clip or a small pencil tip.
2. This will return all thermostat settings to their default values and register all new manual
switch settings for proper operation.

Resetting the Thermostat
5.3
Extended Hold (Vacation) Mode
5.7
Filter Check Monitor (see section 4.3.4 for setting)
The Filter Check Monitor displays a reminder for required filter replacement or cleaning, by
flashing the
FILT segment in the display. See instructions on your filter or heating/cooling
unit for recommendations for interval setting.
1. Press the HOLD button to bypass the program schedule. The current setpoint temperature
will be held either permanently or for 24 hours, depending on the setting selection made
in section 4.3.3.
2. Press the HOLD button again to return the thermostat to
normal program operation.
3. The hold period lasts until the hold is released as in step #2
above, or is limited to 24 hours if the default was changed
in the User Options Settings ( see section 4.3.3).
5.4
This thermostat requires two (2) properly installed "AA"
alkaline batteries to provide back-up power for the
thermostat. The thermostat must have 24 Volt AC
power present for proper system operation and control.
This thermostat is equipped with a low battery
detection feature that constantly monitors the batteries
during normal operating mode to determine whether
they have sufficient power to provide back-up power.
When this feature determines that the battery status is low, a low battery indicator will
appear in the display. It is recommended that the batteries be replaced immediately to
maintain the system clock in the event of a power outage.
When the selected interval has been reached, and required
cleaning or replacement has been performed, press the
RETURN button in any normal mode to reset the timer and
turn off the warning.

SYMPTOM
POTENTIAL SOLUTION
Thermostat does not
turn on heating or
cooling system.
Check to see if
OFF is shown in display. This indicates that the
system is turned off at the thermostat. Move the system selector
switch to the
HEAT or COOL position. After the compressor short
cycle protection 5-minute period expires the system should start
within a minutes time.
Compressor protection features may be in effect due to
compressor short cycle conditions, power outages or rolling
blackouts. See Compressor Protection Features section for full
explanation of this feature.
Check thermostat wiring to make sure that the heating and
cooling stages are connected to the correct terminals on the
wiring terminal block. See Installation and Wiring Diagram
sections of this manual.
Thermostat turns
on heating instead
of cooling, or

heating.
