Frequently asked questions (cont.).
"I just installed the thermostat and the antenna symbol goes on and off. What should I do?"
A weak RF signal between the thermostat and one or more receivers is the cause. The further
away the thermostat and receiver are from each other, the weaker the signal. Distance and/or
something shielding or blocking the RF signal is the likely cause. Distance is typically not a
problem. The most common cause for this is an object acting as a shield, such as sheet metal.
Changing the position of the thermostat may be required.
NOTE: Always seek out a professional electrical and HVAC contractor when working with your
heating and cooling system and the electrical wiring in your home or commercial property.
Always consult with an HVAC contractor and/or original equipment manufacturer before
modifying any equipment.
"The display on the thermostat is blank. What happened?"
A blank display indicates that your batteries are depleted. When the "Low Battery" icon
comes on, there are only a couple of weeks of battery life remaining. We recommend that
when you change batteries, always use batteries that you know are fresh. Use four (4) new
high-quality AA batteries. If you are using the wireless thermostat to control a heating system,
we recommend as a general practice putting fresh batteries in at the start of the heating
season.
