ADDITIONAL THERMOSTAT SETTINGS
Settings in this section are not necessary for all systems. These settings,
however, may optimize energy use and comfort levels, especially if a heat
pump system is being used.
System Type Adjustment: Your Clear Comfort™ thermostat is set at
the factory to operate a standard fossil fuel furnace heating system. This
setting can be changed to better accommodate other heat sources, fan
types or a heat pump system.
• Slide the Mode Switch to the OFF position (Step 1). While holding the
Reset Button (on the back of the thermostat body), press the Down Arrow
Button until the Offset Indicator appears (Step 2). Release the Reset
Button. (Do not hold the Reset Button for more than five seconds.) Press
the Reset Button again (Step 3). (The Offset setting will not be lost.) If
using a heat pump, toggle to "HP" using the Up or Down Arrow Buttons.
To return to the furnace setting ("F"), press the Up or Down Arrow Button
(Step 4). The thermostat will accept the setting after 10 seconds of no
activity, or by sliding the Mode Switch to Heat or Cool.
