Quick Start
Setting or changing the temperatures for heating and cooling
Your thermostat is installed with pre-set heating and cooling temperature
settings. You can use these or change them so your home is as warm
or as cool as you would like it to be. These steps will hold the temperature
where you set it until you make another change.
1. Open the door. You will see the word heat or cool on the screen
nextto the pre-set temperature, depending on the mode your
system is in. (If the thermostat is in “auto” mode, you will see both
the heating and cooling set points. If it’sthe first time you’ve used
the thermostat,the mode willsay heat.)
2. Tochange the displayed temperature, press the up or
down button located on the right side until you reach
the desired setting.
3. To change the other temperature setting, press the
mode button on the left. The screen will display the
word cool or heat and the pre-set temperature.
4. Press the up or down button to change the displayed
setting. Stop on the desired setting.

Quick Start
Understanding Touch ‘N’ Go
The unique Touch ‘N’ Go feature on your thermostat is a revolutionary
tool that lets you use a simpler programming option – literally, touch
and go – to help you get the maximum comfort control from the entire
comfort system.
With the touch of one Touch ‘N’ Go button – home, away
or sleep – you can tell your thermostat where you’ll be.
It’s the ideal solution for somebody who prefers different
comfort settings for different times of the day.
The three Touch ‘N’ Go buttons are preset at the factory for typical
heating and cooling temperature settings. You can change these
temperature settings easily.

12
Operating the Thermostat
Using the Touch ‘N’ Go feature
The Touch ‘N’ Go feature on your thermostat involves the home, away
and sleep buttons immediately under the display. You can either accept
the preset temperature settings for when you are home, away or
asleep, or set your own Touch ‘N’ Go heating and cooling temperature
settings. And, because these buttons and their comfort settings aren’t
linked to specific times of the day, you are free to use any button and
its settings whenever it suits your lifestyle needs. Just touch the
button you want to use when you are away from home, return, or go
to sleep. It’s easier than manually re-setting the temperature several
times a day.
Here are the temperature settings that are pre-set for your home,
away and sleep buttons.
