Auto Season Changeover
When the System Selection is in AUTO position, the thermostat
will automatically change between Heating and Cooling systems,
depending on your program. We recommend keeping your pro-
grammed heating and cooling temperatures at least 5°F (3°C)
apart to allow the Auto Season Changeover to occur when the
appropriate temperature span has been reached. However, if
your heating and cooling programs set temperatures are close,
there is a built-in program to prevent the thermostat from
changing unnecessarily.
Auto Season Changeover is disabled when the thermostat is in
Temporary or Permanent Override, or Vacation Hold, as these
overrides are energy saving settings. While in any of these
modes, “AUTO” will be temporarily removed form the LCD dis-
play. “AUTO” will return when these holds are cleared. Auto Sea-
son Changeover will still function in Home Today mode, as this is
a comfort setting.
For example, you may have the following temperatures pro-
grammed at a given time:
Heat Set Temp = 68°F
Cool Set Temp = 78°F
If the room temperature rises above 78°F, then the thermostat
will automatically change to cool mode and turn on the air
conditioner.
Likewise, the thermostat will
automatically change to heat mode
and turn on heat when the room temperature falls below 68°F.
