Screen touch not working
The touch screen may not be working because the screen is locked. The thermostat has a "SCREEN CLEAN" feature that locks the screen for 10 seconds to allow cleaning. If this feature was activated, the screen will not respond to touch during that time. Wait a few seconds and try again.
