Understanding Touch 'N' Go feature
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. To keep the home at that comfort level
indefinitely, you add one more button - hold/run - and you're set. It's the ideal
choice for somebody whose schedule varies from day to day or doesn't fit into the
two or four predictable time periods allowed by the thermostat.
At the same time, these three comfort options - home, away and sleep - are
connected to the thermostat's full-level programming power so that you get the
home comfort you desire exactly when you want it.
The three Touch 'N' Go buttons are preset at the factory for typical heating and
cooling temperature settings and assigned to specific time periods. You can change
these temperature settings and the hours you want to use them easily. Learn how to
do that and discover how useful this device is as you read through this manual.

Programming the Touch 'N' Go feature
The Touch 'N' Go feature on your thermostat involves the home, away and sleep
buttons immediately" under the display'. They" are used for two programming
options. One is more sophisticated than the other.
The simpler programming option requires you to either accept the preset
temperature settings for when you are home, away or asleep, or to set your own
Touch 'N' Go heating and cooling temperature settings. Either way, your home,
away and sleep settings are automatically linked to one of four time periods that are
also preset (and changeable) on the thermostat.
You can override those preset time periods and their relationship to your home,
away and sleep buttons by pressing one of those three buttons at any time. This
will let you create a "temporary hold" at that comfort level until the next
programming period.
You can also hold the thermostat at your home, away or sleep temperatures by
pressing one of those three buttons and then pressing the hold button.
This approach is popular with people who don't follow the same routine every day.
And while you need to remember to push one of those three buttons when you
leave, come home, or go to bed, doing that is easier for some than manually
re-setting the temperature several times a day.

After you have set your three Touch 'N' Go buttons with temperature settings for
when you're away, home and asleep, you can program the time of day you want to
use for those temperature settings.
The thermostat has four time ranges called periods. They are identified on the
display as P1, P2, P3 and P4.
With four time period options, you have a great deal of schedule and temperature
flexibility. For example, in a household where nobody is home during the day, the
users might use P1 for the morning before they leave for work, P2 for the hours
they are at work, P3 for the period when they are home in the evening, and P4 when
they are sleeping.
In situations where somebody is home most of the day, P1, P2 and P3 can all be
assigned the same "home" temperatures, while P4 is reserved for the sleeping
hours. (To learn how to reduce the number of time periods from four to two, see
page 22.)
