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 next to 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’s the first time you’ve used the thermostat, the
mode will say heat.).
2. To change 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.
5. Close the door.

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.
