O/B TERMINAL SWITCH SELECTION
The O/B switch on this thermostat is factory set to the “O”
position. This will accommodate the majority of heat pump
applications, which require the changeover relay to be ener-
gized in COOL. If the thermostat you are replacing or the heat
pump being installed with this thermostat requires a “B” termi-
nal,to energizethe changeoverrelay inHEAT,the O/Bswitch
must be moved to the “B” position.
ARMCHAIR PROGRAMMING
Armchair Programming is a unique feature that allows your

holdanew9-voltbattery againstthe wiresinthe batterycutout
on the back of the thermostat base for approximately 45
seconds.Thiswill provide achargethat will lastapproximately
30 to 45 minutes to allow the thermostat to be programmed.
After programming, the thermostat must be mounted on the
