Robertshaw 9620 User manual

Important Safety Information
WARNING:
•Always turn off power at the main power source by unscrewing
fuse or switching circuit breaker to the off position before installing,
removing, cleaning, or servicing thermostat.
•Read all of the information in this manual before installing or
programming this thermostat.
•This is a 24V AC low voltage thermostat. Do not install on voltages
higher than 30V AC.
•All wiring must conform to local and national building and electrical
codes and ordinances.
•Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the
system control to test installation. This will damage the thermostat
and void the warranty.

Step 3: Testing the Thermostat
WARNING: DO NOT SHORT (JUMPER) ACROSS TERMINALS OF GAS VALVE OR SYSTEM CONTROL
TO TEST OPERATION. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE THERMOSTAT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
CAUTION: DO NOT SWITCH SYSTEM TO COOL IF THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 50°F (10°C). THIS CAN DAMAGE
THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AND CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.
1. Place the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM
switch into the COOL position
2. Press the button until the temperature
setting is at least 3 degrees below the room temperature. The air
conditioning system should turn on within a few seconds.
NOTE: O NCE THE THERMOSTAT TURNS THE SYSTEM OFF WHILE IN THE COOL OR HEAT MODE , A BUILT - IN DELAY KEEPS THE COM -
PRESSOR FROM TURNING ON FOR ABOUT
5 MINUTES . T HIS PROTECTS THE COMPRESSOR . N O ADDITIONAL TIME DELAY RELAY ( DELAY ON
BREAK
) IS NECESSARY . T O OVERRIDE THE 5- MINUTE DELAY FOR INSTALLATION , PRESS RESET. T HIS WILL ERASE THE DELAY AS WELL
AS ALL PROGRAMMING
.
3. Put the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch into
the OFF position. The air conditioning
system should turn off. The fan may
continue to run for a short period of time.
4. Put the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch
into the HEAT position.
5. Press the button until the temperature setting is at least
3 degrees above room temperature. The heating system should turn
on. The fan may not turn on immediately, depending on the fan delay
built into the furnace.
6. Put the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM switch
into the OFF position. The heating
system should turn off. Once again,
the fan may have a delay.
7. Put the AUTO-ON switch
to the ON position. The blower
fan should turn on.
8. Put the AUTO-ON switch
to the AUTO position. The blower
fan should turn off.

Step 4: Customizing Your Thermostat
◆Set Time of Day, Day of Week,
Temperature Differential,
Residual Cooling
1. Press SET and PROG/MAN.
Release simultaneously.
Press or to change time of day.
2. Press Press
to change day of week.
3. Press Press
to change 1st stage
temperature differential.
NOTE: THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL IS FACTORY PRESET AT 1°. THIS MEANS THAT
WHENEVER THE ROOM TEMPERATURE CHANGES BY ONE FULL DEGREE FROM THE TEMPERA-
TURE SETTING, THE SYSTEM WILL TURN ON. IF THE SYSTEM TURNS ON TOO OFTEN,
INCREASE THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL.
4. Press Press
to change 2nd stage
temperature differential.
NOTE: THE SECOND STAGE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL IS FACTORY PRESET AT 2°.
5. Press Press
to change
residual cooling.
NOTE: THE RESIDUAL COOL FEATURE WILL KEEP THE SYSTEM FAN ON FOR AN
ADDITIONAL 30, 60, OR 90 SECONDS AFTER THE COMPRESSOR CYCLES OFF IN COOL
MODE. THE RESIDUAL COOL FEATURE CAN BE SET ONLY IN THE COOL MODE.

◆Changing Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C)
Press and hold SET. Press
Release both simultaneously.
◆Energy Efficient Recovery (EER™)
The Energy Efficient Recovery (EER™) feature looks ahead up to 2 hours
prior to the end of the setback (or set-up) period to begin monitoring per-
formance and calculating when to turn on your system. It also determines
whether the auxiliary heat or cool stages should be activated prior to set-
point time to meet your chosen setpoint temperature. The thermostat will
indicate EER in the display when this program feature is active. The EER™
feature will lockout the auxiliary stages until 20 minutes prior to upcoming
setpoint time to utilize the most energy efficient first stage. The auxiliary
stages of heating and cooling will be available during this lock-out period
to maintain the setpoint temperature should the system not be able to
keep up with the heating or cooling demand.
Step 5: Setting the Program
This Robertshaw thermostat is preprogrammed with the following
ENERGY STAR®settings for the greatest energy savings.
Setting Time Heat Setpoint Cool Setpoint
Temperature Temperature
MORN 6:00 a.m. 70°F 78°F
DAY 8:00 a.m. 62°F 85°F
EVE 5:00 p.m. 70°F 78°F
NITE 10:00 p.m. 62°F 82°F
These settings can be customized using the following QuickSet™ or daily
programming guides.

Troubleshooting
SYMPTOM REMEDY
Thermostat does not turn
on system. Check wiring. (See Installing Model 9620
Thermostat)
Check fuse. Replace with 3 amp
fuse if fuse has opened. Five
minute compressor short cycle
protection maybe in effect. Press
RESET to override. NOTE: This will
erase programming.
Thermostat turns on and off too
frequently. Increase temperature differential. (See Customizing Your Thermostat)
Display is blank, flashing, or
constant LO BAT. Replace batteries.
Time shown on display is not the
current time of day. Change time of day setting. (See Customizing Your Thermostat)
Thermostat does not follow
program. Thermostat in MANUAL mode. (See Customizing Your Thermostat)
Thermostat may not have been
programmed in HEAT or COOL
position. Verify program.
Check AM/PM indicators at time of
day and programmed time
changes. (See Customizing Your
Thermostat)
Verify program and day of week
is correct. (See Customizing Your
Thermostat)
Thermostat does not advance day
of week. To view or change day of week
use method on page 5.
◆LED Indicators
The LED indicators are used to indicate system activity. The AUX indicator
illuminates during a call for second stage heating. The auxiliary stages are
used to maintain comfort during extremes in weather conditions. If the
AUX LED is illuminated too frequently during periods of moderate temper-
ature, check the differential settings (page 8).
The CHECK indicator is used to monitor system status. If the CHECK indi-
cator is illuminated, call your local HVAC service provider.
The EMER indicator is illuminated only when the system switch is moved
to the EM (emergency heat) position. The EM position is used only when
the primary stage of heat is not functioning or requires service.
