Replace the cover on the thermostat by snapping it in place. Turn on power to the system at the main service panel. Test thermostat operation as described in the following section. FAN OPTION SWITCH Read the following information before setting the fan option switch (See figure 1). If you are unsure of your application, contact a qualified service person.
Page 11
BATTERY OPERATION The thermostat will operate from 2 size “AAA” alkaline batteries or 24VAC power. When operated from batteries, connection to the “C” (common) or (neutral) terminal is not required. NOTE: When operated from batteries (No “C” terminal connection), the LCD display backlight options are limited to option 1 (disabled) or option 2 (30 second illumination after each button press).
Page 13
CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION------------------------------------------------------------------ If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly, contact a qualified service person. Turn on power to the system. Fan Operation Move the system switch to the OFF position. If your system does not have a “G” (Fan) terminal connection, skip to the Heating System.

When the (FA)st heating cycle rate is selected in the configuration menu, (see configuration menu item 2), the thermostat will call for heat at 0.5ºF (0.5ºC) below set-point, and turn off at set point. When the (SL)ow heating cycle rate is selected, the thermostat will call for heat at 1.5ºF (1.5ºC) below set-point, and turn off at set-point.
Page 15
When the (FA)st cooling cycle rate is selected in the configuration menu, (see configuration menu item 2), the thermostat will call for cooling at 0.5ºF (0.5ºC) above set-point, and turn off set point. When the (SL)ow cool cycle rate is selected, the thermostat will call for cooling at 1.5ºF (1.5ºC) above set-point, and turn off at set-point.

Replacing Batteries If your thermostat was pre-installed, the batteries may be in place. If the battery icon on the display is flashing, it indicates that the batteries need to be replaced. When the thermostat is powered only by battery, the battery icon will flash for approximately 2 months before the batteries are expected to expire.
