PROGRAMMING YOUR THERMOSTAT

This section will help you plan your thermostat's program to
meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep the
following guidelines in mind when planning your program.
• When heating (cooling) your building, program the tem-
peratures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is vacant
or during periods of low activity.
• During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually
minimal.
Planning Your Program
Look at the factory preprogrammed times and temperatures
shown in the sample schedule. If this program will suit your
needs, simply press the RUN button to begin running the factory
preset program.
If you want to change the preprogrammed times and tempera-
tures, follow these steps.
Determine the time periods and temperatures for your weekday
and weekend programs. You must program four periods for both
the weekday and weekend program. However, you may use the
same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time
periods. You can choose start times, heating temperatures, and
cooling temperatures independently for both weekday and week-
end programs (for example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70 as
the weekday 1st period heating start time and temperature,
and also choose 7:00 AM and 76 as the weekday 1st period
cooling start time and temperature).
Use the following table to plan your program time periods and
the temperatures you want during each period. Fill in the
complete table to have a record of your programs.
