TROUBLESHOOTING
Reset Operation
Note: When thermostat is reset, installer confi guration menu
settings and programming will reset to factory settings.
If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display
or causes erratic thermostat operation, you can reset the
thermostat by removing the wires from terminals R and C
(do not short them together) and removing batteries for 2
minutes. After resetting the thermostat, replace the wires and
batteries. If the thermostat has been reset and still does not
function correctly contact your heating/cooling service person
or place of purchase.
Note: Be sure to review the installer confi guration menu
settings.
To reset the programming, clock and confi guration settings,
press
and and the VENT button simultaneously.
The thermostat should go blank and then all segments will be
displayed momentarily.
Symptom Possible Cause Correction Action
No Heat/No Cool/No Fan
(common problems)
1. Blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker.
2. Furnace power switch to OFF.
3. Furnace blower compartment door or
panel loose or not properly installed.
4. Loose connection to thermostat or
system.
Replace fuse or reset breaker.
Turn switch to ON.
Replace door panel in proper position to engage safety
interlock or door switch.
Tighten connections.
No Heat
1. Pilot light not lit.
2. Furnace Lock-Out Condition. Heat
may also be intermittent.
3. Heating system requires service or
thermostat requires replacement.
Re-light pilot.
Many furnaces have safety devices that shut down when
a lock-out condition occurs. If the heat works intermittently
contact the furnace manufacturer or local HVAC service
person for assistance.
Diagnostic: Set SISTEMA Switch to CALOR and raise the
setpoint above room temperature. Within a few seconds
the thermostat should make a soft click sound. This sound
usually indicates the thermostat is operating properly. If
the thermostat does not click, try the reset operation listed
above. If the thermostat does not click after being reset
contact your heating and cooling service person or place
of purchase for a replacement. If the thermostat clicks,
contact the furnace manufacturer or a HVAC service
person to verify the heating is operating correctly.
No Cool
1. Cooling system requires service or
thermostat requires replacement.
Same as diagnostic for No Heat condition except set the
thermostat to FRIO and lower the setpoint below the room
temperature. There may be up to a fi ve minute delay before
the thermostat clicks in Cooling.
Heat, Cool or Fan
Runs Constantly
1. Possible short in wiring.
2. Possible short in thermostat.
3. Possible short in heat/cool/vent system.
4. VENT Switch set to Fan ON.
Check each wire connection to verify they are not shorted
or touching together. No bare wire should stick out from
under terminal block. Try resetting the thermostat as
described above. If the condition persists the manufacturer
of your system or service person can instruct you on how
to test the Heat/Cool system for correct operation. If the
system operates correctly, replace the thermostat.
Thermostat Setting &
Thermostat Thermometer
Disagree
1. Thermostat thermometer setting
requires adjustment.
The thermometer can be adjusted +/- 4 degrees. See
Temperature Display Adjustment in the Confi guration Menu
section.
Furnace (Air Conditioner)
Cycles Too Fast or Too
Slow (narrow or wide
temperature swing)
1. The location of the thermostat and/or
the size of the Heating System may
be infl uencing the cycle rate.
Digital thermostats provide precise control and cycle faster
than older mechanical models. The system turns on and
off more frequently but runs for a shorter time so there is
no increase in energy use. If you would like an increased
cycle time, choose bA for slow cycle in the Confi guration
menu, step 6 (Calor), 7 (Frio) or 8 (Bomba de Calor). If an
acceptable cycle rate is not achieved, contact a local HVAC
service person for additional suggestions.
