INSTALLATION 
install fresh “AA” alkaline batteries immediately. For best 
results, use new premium brand alkaline batteries such as 
Duracell® or Energizer®. We recommend replacing batteries 
every 2 years. If the home is going to be unoccupied for an 
extended period (over 3 months) and 
  is displayed, the 
batteries should be replaced before leaving. When less than 
two months of battery life remain, the setpoint temperature will 
offset by 10 degrees (10 degrees cooler in Heat mode / 10 
degrees warmer in Cool mode). If offset occurs, the normal 
setpoint can be manually reset with 
 or 
. Another offset 
will occur within two days if batteries are not replaced. To 
replace the batteries, set system to OFF.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT RECOVERY 
(EMR)
When the Energy Management Recovery (EMR) feature is 
activated the thermostat will start the program early to achieve 
the programmed temperature setting by the time specifi ed in 
the program and minimize Auxiliary Heat use. Heat Pump and 
Cooling systems start approximately 15 minutes early for every 
1° of temperature (gas or electric heat starts 5 minutes early 
for every 1°) required to reach the next temperature setting. 
This helps the building warm up in Heating or cool down in 
Cooling so it reaches the program temperature right on time. 
EMR – Heat Pump Example:
If the thermostat is programmed to an overnight heating 
temperature of 66°F, and the next program period, beginning at 
6:00 AM is programmed to 70°F, the thermostat will automatically 
advance the program setting and start the heating system at 
about 5:00 AM. The thermostat will use Heat Pump only during 
the majority of the recovery period. It will use Auxiliary Heat 
only if the thermostat calculates the Heat Pump will not meet 
setpoint by the programmed time. This saves money by using 
the Heat Pump for setback recovery as much as possible and 
using Auxiliary Heat only if the Heat Pump cannot recover by 
the time programmed.
To turn EMR off, use the Confi guration Menu on page 5. When 
EMR is set to OFF the temperature settings will change at 
exactly your program times.
