GETTING
STARTED

USING THE
TOUCH SCREEN
The Smart Thermostat uses touch screen technology that makes
navigation easy. With your nger, lightly tap the icons, buttons and
lists or drag you nger across the screen to move a slider or scroll
through a list.
Note: To prevent damage to the touch screen, never use a sharp
object such as a pen, to press the icons, buttons and lists.
When the screen shows a list of items, an arrow to the right of the
item indicates more than two options to choose from. Touching this
type of list will bring you to a new list or screen.
If there are only two options for a given list entry, those options will
be displayed next to a switch within the list. Pressing anywhere on
the item will toggle from one option to the other.
In the various screens on the thermostat, you have three ways
to navigate.
Press Cancel to go back to the previous screen without saving changes.
Press Done to save changes and move to the next screen.
At any time press the home button (found at the right hand side
of touch screen). This cancels any action and takes you back to the
home screen.

To set up Reminders:
From the Home
screen, press More.
Press Settings and
select Reminders from
the list.
Scroll through options
to set and adjust to
your needs.

Programming your Smart Thermostat
Your heating and cooling needs change depending on the time of
day, and day of the week.
For example, if there’s no one in the house during the workday you
might want to let the temperature go up in the summer, to reduce
energy used by the air conditioning system, and go down in the winter,
to reduce energy used by the furnace.
Your Smart Thermostat is exible – you can program four dierent time
periods per day, seven days a week. Each period is represented by a
unique icon. These icons can be found on various screens on the Smart
Thermostat as well as on your personalized web portal. They are:
Awake this represents the period when you are awake. The start time
of this period is typically when you get up in the morning.
Work this represents the period when you are at work and the home
is not occupied. The start time of this period is typically when you
leave to go to work.
Home this represents the period when you are home. The start
time of this period is typically when you get home from work in
the evening.
Sleep this represent the period when you are sleeping. The start time of
this period is when you go to bed at night.
We call it a Smart Thermostat because it learns how your home and
heating and cooling equipment perform. This means you can be
sure that your home is at the temperature you want, when you want
it, without wasting energy.
When your schedule changes, you can quickly and easily update the
thermostat settings directly on the device itself or online through
your personalized web portal.
Your Smart Thermostat comes pre-programmed with EnergyStar
recommended settings. These settings can save you up to 20% on
your heating and cooling energy costs when compared to a non-
programmable thermostat.
If your preferences are dierent than the recommended settings,
you can easily adjust the time periods and temperatures of your
system. There are two ways to program the Smart Thermostat use
the Wizard that guides you through the steps OR use the more
advanced Editor feature.
To use the Wizard:
From the Home
screen, press Program.
Note: If your Smart
Thermostat is in Hold
mode, you must press
Resume in order to get
to the Wizard.
Press Wizard in the
upper right corner of
the screen.
Choose the setting
that best ts your daily
rountine.
Press Next to go to the
next question.
When the congratula-
tions screen appears
press Done.
15
Program summary screen
Using the Program Wizard
The Smart Thermostat Wizard takes you step-by-step
through a process to determine when you’re awake, go
to work, come home and go to sleep. You’ll then set ap-
propriate temperatures for each of those time periods.
Note: If your Smart Thermostat is in Hold mode, you must
press Resume in order to get to the wizard.
The Smart Thermostat will not ask you what temperature
you want in your home during work hours. Instead, it
automatically sets this value to minimize your energy
consumption, while ensuring the room temperature
reaches the desired temperature when you come home.
If you prefer to set this temperature manually, use the
Editor feature.
If you want to change anything, you can either run the
Wizard again, or press Editor to make specic changes.
See Using the Editor on page 17.
If you do not connect to the internet, you must ensure
the time and date are programmed. Refer to Personalizing
your Smart Thermostat on page 10 for details.
16

Using the Editor
The second way to edit your Smart Thermostat program
is to use the Editor.This method is more advanced than
the Wizard. You can edit specic times, temperatures and
furnace fan settings for each day of the week.
Select the desired program period to adjust start times
or disable the period entirely.
Select a current Heat or Cool set temperature to
adjust the temperature or fan settings for that period.
Any program period changes will automatically apply
to all the days that period runs and are shown at the
top of the screen.
If your system is enabled for auto-changeover mode,
the heat and cool set temperature will automatically
be adjusted to ensure a minimum dierence between
the heat and cool set temperatures.
In auto system mode the fan setting will revert to
whatever is congured in the Details - fan setting.
Auto-change over mode and the minimum temperature
dierence is congurable in the installer setting.
Note: Humidity levels are not included as a programmable
option, even if a humidier or dehumidier is installed and
controlled by the Smart Thermostat.

Editor summary screen

Minimum On Time This feature allows the homeowner to deter-
mine a minimum time per hour that the furnace fan will run. This
results in increased air circulation and a more consistent tempera-
ture within the home. This is more cost eective than choosing
the ON position for the fan
In either mode, the Smart Thermostat will ensure that when your
vacation ends the thermostat will revert to the regular settings.
Note: If you were running your regular program prior to the start of
your vacation, on your return the Smart Thermostat will restore your
home to those settings. If you were in Hold mode prior to the start of
your vacation, the Smart Thermostat will restore the home to whatever
the set temperature was just prior to your vacation.
UNDERSTANDING
ALERTS
From time to time your ecobee system will display an alert. For ex-
ample, the alert might be a reminder to change the furnace lter,
or perform regular maintenance.
If you have a ood sensor installed in your house the system can
alert you when water is detected, potentially saving you thou-
sands of dollars from damage due to ooding.
If you have enabled the Internet connection to your Smart
Thermostat, these alerts can also be sent to you via e-mail.
When an alert displays, you can dismiss it or ask to be reminded later.
For example, if you receive a furnace lter alert and choose Remind me
later, the alert will clear and display again 24 hours later. If you choose
OK when the alert displays, it will reset the reminder.
