Changing the Filter Settings
If you set the thermostat to tell you when your filter needs to be changed, you must also indicate how
often you want the thermostat to remind you. You can choose from 30, 60, 90, and 120 days. When the
Filter Change Reminder feature is enabled (see the Disabling the Filter Change Reminder section on
page 31 for more information), the thermostat monitors the operation time of the HVAC system and fan.
When the operation time reaches the selected number of days, a filter change reminder icon displays to
alert you to change the filter. Perform the following steps to change the filter settings:
1. From the Main screen, press Mode/Select to access the Current Weather screen.
2. Press Mode/Select to access the 5-Day Forecast screen.
3. Press Mode/Select to access the Thermostat Mode screen.
4. Use the navigation buttons to select Settings, and press Mode/Select to access the Settings screen
(see FIG. 23).
