3 . Operation (Cont.) Auto Season Changeover Auto season changeover allows you the option of setting your thermostat to switch between heating and cooling modes automatically. The thermostats system mode must be in auto for the auto season changeover feature to work. We recommend keeping your programmed heating and cooling temperatures at least 4°F (3°C) apart to allow the auto season changeover to occur. However, if your heating and cooling programs set temperatures are close, there is a built-in program to prevent the thermostat from changing unnecessarily. Auto Season Changeover is disabled when the thermostat is in Temporary or Permanent Override, or Vacation Hold, as these overrides are energy saving settings. While in any of these modes, "auto" will be temporarily removed form the LCD display. "auto" will return when these holds are cleared. Auto Season Changeover will still function in Home Today mode, as this is a comfort setting. Example: If your Heat is set to 68°F and your cooling is set to 78°F, auto season changeover would work as follows. If the room temperature rises above 78°F, then the thermostat will automatically change to cool mode and turn on the air conditioner. Likewise, the thermostat will automatically change to heat mode and turn on heat when the room temperature falls below 68°F. Home Today This Hunter patented feature allows you to temporarily override your program settings on days when you are normally away from home with one key press. Press " home today" to enter the home today override. The highest program temperature for today will be selected from your programs in Heat mode and become the set temperature. (In Cool mode, the lowest program temperature will be the set temperature.) "Home" will alternate on the display with the day and any other messages. When activated during program 1 or 2, home today will automatically return to program control at the start of program 4 that day. If home today is pressed after the start of program 3, the thermostat will remain in home today mode until program 1 the next day. If home today is already active, you may extend it to program 1 of the next day by pressing the " home today" again after the start time of the third program. If the system is changed between Heat and Cool modes (either manually or by Auto Season Changeover) during the "Home Today" override period, the set point temperature will be automatically updated. It will automatically change from the highest heat program set point to the lowest cool program set point, or from the lowest cool program set point to the highest heat program set point. Press ret/clear to exit home today mode before the schedule ending time. Home will be removed from the screen, and the thermostat will return to the current program. To change the temperature manually: Press and hold the or buttons for 1 second or until the screen blinks. Then use the arrow buttons to adjust the temperature. Manually changing the set temperature will not affect the Home Today ending time. However, the set temperature will not change automatically with a manual or Automatic change between heating and cooling. You may also press the " home today" key while in temporary manual override. The operation is the same as the point above. 4 . Features System Protection The thermostat provides a 3.5 minute delay after shutting off the heating or cooling system before it can be restarted. This feature will prevent damage to your system caused by rapid cycling. Low Battery Indicator Two fresh AA alkaline batteries should provide one year of service (depending on backlight usage). However, when the batteries become drained, the Low Battery Indicator will flash on the display. when this message occurs, install new alkaline batteries. You have appoximately one minute to change the batteries and keep the thermostat's clock and program settings. Once the batteries have become too low to ensure proper operation, your system will be turned off. The display will be clear except for the flashing Low Battery Indicator on the LCD display, and all programming will be lost. To check the life of the battery: Press option twice. Press the ret/clear button or wait 15 seconds to return to the main display. CAUTION: When only the battery Icon flashes on the display, the thermostat has shut down and your system will no longer operate. In this condition, there is no temperature control for your dwelling. NOTE: If you plan to be away from the premises for over 30 days, we recommend that you replace the old batteries with new alkaline batteries prior to leaving. 9 44008-01 • 02/10/10 • Hunter Fan Company
