time periods are available. These periods can
be seen individually on the display as you
press the Set Schedule key.
Program the Thermostat
When batteries are installed, your thermostat
can be programmed in your hand, before it is
mounted on the wall.
WAKE is the time period you want the house at
a comfortable temperature when you get up
and while you get ready for work or school.
When deciding what time to set for your WAKE
period, include extra lead time, depending on
the outside temperature and your furnace
response time, to give the furnace a head start
to heat the house before you get up. (This will
be a higher temperature during heating
season, or a lower temperature during cooling
season.)
If you would prefer to program the thermostat
after it is mounted on the wall, (see Mount
Thermostat section), and return later to this
programming section.
Refer to the personal Program Schedule
section to program your time and temperature
settings for various times of the day.
Four time periods are available during week-
days—WAKE, LEAVE, RETURN, and SLEEP.
During weekends, only the WAKE and SLEEP
LEAVE is the time period you can set for an
energy-saving temperature while you are away

temperature during cooling season.)
sleeping. (Again, lower for heating or higher for
cooling. For more comfortable sleeping, some
homeowners choose not to raise the cool
temperature during the night.)
RETURN is the time period you want the
house at a comfortable temperature for
activities before bedtime. When deciding what
time to set for your RETURN period, include
extra lead time, depending on the outside
temperature and your furnace response time,
to give the furnace a head start to heat the
house before you arrive home. (Again, higher
for heating or lower for cooling.)
You will set one schedule for weekdays and
another for weekends, because your require-
ments are probably different for each.
Fill in the times and temperatures you desire
for weekdays and weekends. If you decide not
to program the thermostat, it automatically
controls heating at 68°F (20°C), and cooling at
78°F (26°C), 24 hours a day. Also, you do not
need to enter a time and temperature program
for all periods if your schedule does not require

it. For example, a house that is occupied during
weekdays would only require programs for
WAKE and SLEEP.
If you make an error at any time during
programming, press the Run Program key and
continue again at the last step.
Before programming, remove the clear plastic
overlay covering the display.
When pressing the keys, use the ball of your
finger or a soft pencil eraser.
