About your new thermostat
Use this feature in climates where both air conditioning and heating are used on the
same day. When the system mode is in Auto, the thermostat automatically selects
heating or cooling depending on the indoor temperature.
While in the Auto mode, if a schedule override takes place (temporarily or perma-
nently) the thermostat will automatically adjust the cooling and heating settings to
maintain a 3-degree separation between the cool and heat settings.
For example, if the heat temperature is raised to where it gets within 3-dgrees of the
coolsetting,thedisplaywillshowanuparrownextto“cool”toshowthethermostat
is raising the cool setting up to maintain a 3-dgreee separation.
Press the Select Heat/Cool button to select between the heat and cool to view/adjust
either mode.

Built-in compressor protection
This feature helps prevent damage to the
compressor in your air conditioning or heat
pump system.
Damage can occur if the compressor is
re-started too soon after shutdown. This
feature forces the compressor to wait a few
minutes before restarting.
During the wait time, the display will flash
the message CoolOn (or HeatOn if you have
a heat pump). When the safe wait time has
elapsed, the message stops flashing and the
compressor turns on.
Message flashes until safe restart
time has elapsed.

the temperature to 70°. The heat will come
