Troubleshooting Guide  
IF…  
Display will not come on.  
THEN…  
Check that the green light emitting diode (LED)  
located to the left of the LCD is lit, indicating the  
thermostat is powered properly.  
Temperature display will not go lower  
than 45°F (7°C) or higher than 88°F  
(31°C) during programming.  
You have reached the temperature setting limit.  
The setting range is 45°F to 88°F (7°C to 31°C).  
Temperature change occurs at the  
wrong times.  
Check the program times for the period in  
question. Be sure that AM and PM indications are  
correct. Make sure the current day and time are  
correct. Reprogram if necessary.  
Heating will not come on.  
Check that the green LED is lit.  
Check that the switch on the thermostat is set to  
HEAT.

Heating will not come on (Cont).  
Check the system fuse or circuit breaker and  
replace or reset, if necessary.  
Check for correct wiring and good connections.  
If temperature setting is higher than current  
temperature and displays HEAT, contact Honeywell  
Customer Relations at 1-800-468-1502.  
Cooling will not come on.  
Check that the green LED is lit.  
Check that the switch on the thermostat is set to  
COOL.  
Check the system fuse or circuit breaker and  
replace or reset, if necessary.  
Check for correct wiring and good connections.  
The thermostat has a built-in time delay on cooling.  
Allow five to ten minutes after changing the setting  
before the air conditioner starts.

Cooling will not come on (Cont).  
If temperature setting is lower than current  
temperature, and displays COOL, move system  
switch from COOL to OFF for ten minutes. After  
ten minutes, return switch to COOL position. If the  
air conditioner comes on, compressor could have  
reached its high limit temperature protection and  
shut down. If the air conditioner does not come on  
after ten minutes and displays COOL, contact  
Honeywell Customer Relations at 1-800-468-1502.  
The house is too warm or too cool.  
Press Present Setting key to check the current  
temperature setting.  
If desired, change the temperature setting. See  
page 11.  
SYSTEM ON indicator is lit, but no  
heat is coming from the registers.  
Allow time for the furnace to heat up and the fan to  
come on before checking for heat at the register.  
(Check to make sure system on-time is set  
correctly according to pages 13 and 14.)

The furnace or air conditioner  
on-time is too short or too long.  
Contact your heating or air conditioner contractor.  
If further assistance is needed, call Honeywell  
Customer Relations at 1-800-468-1502.  
The thermostat’s current setting  
does not match the display  
temperature.  
Check that the wiring hole in the wall behind the  
wallplate was plugged with insulation to prevent  
drafts that could adversely affect thermostat  
operation.  
Be aware that it is normal for the current setting  
and display temperature to differ occasionally.

fresh batteries are installed.  
Remove batteries. Wait one hour. Install fresh  
alkaline batteries.
