Put thermostat base against the wall where you plan to mount it (Be sure wires will feed through the wire opening in the base of the thermostat).
Installing and Changing Batteries If your LCD is blank, or displaying LO BAT, the batteries are not installed or need to be changed. We suggest you change the batteries at least once a year, or whenever the LO BAT warning displays. Note: After installing new batteries, you have to reset the room temperature setting and the differential setting.
Operation Setting the Setpoint Temperature Step 1: Press the button; the current temperature setpoint displays. Step 2: Press the button until the desired temperature setpoint displays. Note: Holding down either the button will scroll the temperature display. The new temperature setting is automatically saved. After 5 seconds, the display returns to showing the current room temperature.
Operation (Continued) Changing Fahrenheit to Celsius The temperature displays in degrees Fahrenheit as a factory set default. Follow these steps to change to degrees Celsius: Step 1: Remove the cover and the batteries. Step 2: Move the F/C jumper to the desired position, F or C using the center pin as a common. Step 3: Reinstall the batteries and the cover.
