CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION

To prevent static discharge problems, touch side of thermostat
to release static build-up before touching any keys.
If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly,
contact a qualified service person.
Fan Operation
If your system does not have a G terminal connection, skip to
Heating System.
1. Turn on power to the system.
2. Move FAN switch to ON position. The blower should begin to
operate.
3. Move FAN switch to AUTO position. The blower should stop im-
mediately.
Cooling System
CAUTION
!
To prevent compressor and/or property damage, if the
outdoor temperature is below 50°F, DO NOT operate the
cooling system.

This thermostat has a time delay between cooling cycles to allow the
head pressure in the compressor to stabilize. If the temperature is
adjusted to call for cool within 5 minutes of the last cycle the snow-
flake icon will blink indicating the thermostat is locked out. After 3 to
5 minutes, the compressor will start and the snowflake icon will stop
flashing. This helps prevent the compressor from cycling too quickly
and is normal operation for the thermostat.
1. Move SYSTEM switch to COOL position.
2. Press
to adjust thermostat setting below room temperature.
The blower should come on immediately on high speed, followed
by cold air circulation
3. Press
to adjust temperature setting above room temperature.
The cooling system should stop operating.
Heating System
1. Move SYSTEM switch to HEAT position. If the heating system
has a standing pilot, be sure to light it.
2. Press
to adjust thermostat setting above room temperature.
The heating system should begin to operate.
3. Press
to adjust temperature setting below room temperature.
The heating system should stop operating.
