has turned on, it will continue to run for
at least four minutes, even if the set (or
setback) temperature is reached in less

temperature during the minimum
period, the furnace will continue to run
until the set/setback temperature is
reached. After the furnace turns off, it
will not turn on again for at least six
minutes. After six minutes, the furnace
will turn on if the room temperature is
below the set/setback temperature
range. The heat indicator arrow on the
display will flash if the furnace is waiting
to turn on after the six-minute minimum
cycle time has expired.
In the cooling mode, once the cooling
unit has turned on, it will continue to run
for at least six minutes, even if the set (or

period, the cooling unit will continue to
