Please take a moment to try out your touch screen itself.
To select a function on the touch screen, place your
finger on the main temp display and give a short firm push.
Try a "tap" of the finger or stylus. Your input must last long
enough for the system to determine it is not an accidental
'bump'.
Using the stylus is more comfortable for some users.
Again allow the system enough time to recognize your
inputs.
When you are comfortable with touch inputs, proceed.

If you have a heat pump with Auxiliary heat, the new
sequential staging will give you faster recovery from set
backs. The thermostat can be configured for Electric aux or
gas/oil aux heat (see installation). If the heat pump cannot
maintain your desired room temperature, the new system
allows the Aux heat to help maintain your heat all the way to
your desired room temperature.
When using a heat pump with Auxiliary heat, if the heat pump
is not working, you can move the large jumper 3 from B
(lower) HEAT PUMP position to the A (upper) AUX ONLY
position (reset is not necessary). The Auxiliary heat will then be
your only source of heat. When the heat pump is again
operational, be sure to change jumper 3 back to the B
position as the Auxiliary heat is more expensive than the heat
pump.

This thermostat can be used with all millivolt and 24VAC heating and cooling systems. It
cannot be used with line voltage systems. This thermostat is digital and your desired heat or cool
temperatures can be easily be set on the large touch screen with the UP/DOWN arrows. A
minimum 4 minute off time protects heating and cooling systems from damage.
This thermostat uses a new technique called sequential
staging for more comfort with faster reaction to requested
temperature changes.
