POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
All cables and connections must comply with local electrical
codes.
This thermostat has tinned copper wires for line and load connec-
tions. Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used if
these wires will be connected to aluminium conductors.
Install the thermostat onto an electrical box.
Install the thermostat about 1.5 m (5’) high, on an inside wall facing
the heater.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a
staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a door),
or direct sunlight.
Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or
stove pipes.
The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be con-
nected to the load or to the power supply.

box using the provided screws.
Insert the screws through either the
right or left pair of mounting holes on

off.
Apply power to the heating system. Verify the installation by
checking that the heater can be turned on by raising the setpoint
using the Up button and off by lowering the setpoint using the
Down button.
WARNING: Keep the thermostat's air vents clean and free from
obstructions.

In Automatic mode, the thermostat adjusts its temperature set-
point according to the period of the day. To place the thermostat in
this mode, press the Mode button until Auto appears on the
screen. The current period name also appears (unless the ther-
mostat has not been programmed with a schedule).
You can program up to 4 periods (Wake, Leave, Return or Sleep)

(Monday to Friday) and another one for the weekend (Saturday
and Sunday).
The thermostat uses the following default schedule:
Temporary Override
You can temporarily modify the setpoint temperature while the thermostat is in
Automatic mode using the Up or Down button. The new setpoint will be used until
the beginning of the next period. During the override, Auto flashes on the screen.
You can cancel the override by pressing the button.

To place the thermostat in Manual mode, press the Mode
button until Man appears on the screen. In this mode, any
modification to the temperature setpoint must be done
manually. To set the temperature, press the Up or Down
button. The default setting is 21.0°C (70°F).
To place the thermostat in Away mode, press the Mode button
until Away appears on the screen. This mode is a quick way to
lower the temperature to a predetermined setting before you go
away for an extended length of time. The temperature is 15.0°C
(59°F) by default and can be modified using the setup menu
(see page 11).
To disable heating, press the Mode button until Standby
appears on the screen. In this mode, the setpoint temperature
cannot be displayed or modified. For frost protection, heating
will turn on only to prevent the room temperature from dropping
below 5°C (41°F).

Place at Yes if you have a fan-forced heater (to prevent premature burnout of the motor).
Leave at No for better temperature regulation if you do not have a fan-forced heater.
2Away temperature
Set the temperature you wish to use when the thermostat is in Away mode (see
page 10).
3Daylight Saving Time
When the Daylight Saving Time function is enabled (On), the thermostat automatically
switches to Daylight Saving Time on the second Sunday of March and to normal time on
the first Sunday of November.
4Year, Month, Day
These parameters are available only if the Daylight Saving Time function is enabled
(On).
5Early Start
Early Start is used in Automatic mode only. When Early Start is enabled (On), the
thermostat determines when to start heating so the desired temperature is attained at
the beginning of Wake and Return periods. When Early Start is disabled (Off), heating
starts only at the beginning of Wake and Return periods; thus there is a delay before
you reach the desired temperature.
6Keypad lock
The settings are locked. The temperature adjustment buttons only allow you to view the
temperature setpoint.

In case of difficulty
PROBLEM SOLUTIONS
Thermostat is hot. This condition is normal. Ensure that the heater capac-
ity does not exceed the thermostat’s maximum load.
Wrong temperature is
displayed.
Correct it if any of the following situations exists:
• The thermostat is exposed to an air draft.
• The thermostat is located near or above a heat
source such as a light dimmer.
Wrong time is displayed. The thermostat was without power for more than 5
hours.
Temperature does not
change according to the
programmed schedule.
Check that the thermostat is in Automatic mode.
Check the schedule and clock settings. If the thermo-
stat is configured in 12-hour format, ensure that PM
appears on the screen when afternoon times are dis-
played.
LP appears on the
screen or the screen is
blank despite there is no
power outage.
The thermal circuit breaker in the heater is opened.
This can happen if the heater is obstructed by furniture
or curtain and has overheated, or if the thermal circuit
breaker is defective or too sensitive.
The settings cannot be
changed. The settings are locked (see page 13).

WARNING: All parameters, except the clock (time and day), return to
their default settings when the thermostat is reset.
1) Press the Mode button until Standby appears on the screen.
2) Press the button for 6 seconds.
3) The thermostat will display rSt (reset) for 2 seconds to indicate it is
reset and will then return to normal display.
During a power outage, the thermostat display remains lit for the first 2
minutes. During this time, the LP (low power) indicator appears and all
buttons are disabled. Then the screen turns blank. The settings are
stored in memory. When power returns, the thermostat returns to the
mode of operation preceding the power outage. If the power failure has
exceeded 5 hours, the clock and date must be re-adjusted.
