Aprilaire 8554 Thermostat User Manual


 
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Reading the Actual Room Temperature: The Model 8554 normally displays the room temperature,
not the set-point temperature.
Check the Set-Point Temperature: Press and release the DECREASE button or INCREASE
button. The thermostat will display the programmed set-point temperature and a thermometer for
5 seconds before automatically returning to the actual room temperature display.
Temporarily Override the Set Temperature: Press and hold the DECREASE button or
INCREASE button to change the room set-point temperature in 1 degree increments.
The new set-point temperature will be held for 3 hours, then the thermostat will automatically
return to the program.
Hold a New Temperature Set Point: Press and hold the DECREASE button or INCREASE
button to change the room set-point temperature in 1 degree increments. The new set-point
temperature can be maintained indefinitely by pressing and releasing the HOLD button. The word
HOLD” will be displayed. The thermostat will maintain this new set-point temperature until the
RESUME button is pressed returning the thermostat to the original program. This procedure is
typically used during extended vacant periods (vacations, business trips, etc.), to hold an economical
set point until you return.
