connect the three pin connectors on the lower
portion of the thermostat back. Gently push until
the snap connectors engage. DO NOT FORCE
OR PRY THE THERMOSTAT, as this may dam-
age the unit.
PARTS OF THE THERMOSTAT
The Back of The Thermostat Body
Turn the thermostat body over. On the back are
the 3 "AA" Energizer®alkaline batteries and the
two option switch groups (A and B).
1. The"AA"Energizer®alkalinebatteriesprovide
power to the thermostat when the 24vAC
power is interrupted (for example, when you
remove the thermostat from the wall for pro-
gramming). Fresh batteries will maintain the
stored program for approximately a year. If
power loss is long enough for the program to
be lost, the thermostat will automatically re-
turn to the factory programmed temperatures
(64°F heating and 82°F cooling) when power
is restored. You must reprogram the thermo-
stat if this happens.
IfthewordBATTERYisflashinginthedisplay
window, the batteries are low and should be
replaced with fresh "AA" Energizer® alkaline
batteries.
Before removing thermostat from the wall
to replace the batteries, remove 24vAC
power from the thermostat at the breaker/
fuse box.
