Notes:
• To avoid the minimum on and off times during system
checkout, always start and end the check out
procedure in the OFF mode.
• Do not operate air conditioning at low outdoor
temperatures. Refer to equipment manufacturer
recommendations for safe operating temperatures.
1. Set the thermostat to the OFF mode.
2. Set the thermostat to the COOL mode.
• With the O/B configuration setting in the O position (OFF),
the O/B terminal will be on in the Cool mode. In the
B position (ON), the O/B terminal will not be on in the
Cool mode.
3. Lower the temperature setting below the room temperature to
activate the desired stages of cooling. The mode display will
change from “COOL MODE” to “COOLING”, which will flash,
when the thermostat is calling for cooling. Fifteen (15) seconds
must elapse between each stage. Verify the correct outputs
are on according to the configuration settings shown below:
