Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a Honeywell Wi-Fi touchscreen programmable thermostat. When registered to Honeywell’s Total Connect Comfort Solutions, you can remotely monitor and control the heating and cooling system in your home or business—you can stay connected to your comfort system wherever you go.

desired time.
Compressor protection – the compressor waits a few minutes before restarting, to prevent equipment damage.
Heat/cool auto changeover – the thermostat automatically changes from
heating to cooling to keep you comfortable.

Special Features

Adaptive Intelligent Recovery (AIR)
This feature allows the thermostat to “learn” how long the heating/cooling system takes to reach programmed temperature settings, so the temperature is reached at the time you set. For example: Set the Wake time to 6:00 am, and the temperature to 70°. The heat will come on before 6:00 am, so the temperature is 70° by 6:00 am. The message “Recovery” is displayed when the system is activated before a scheduled time period.
Note: System setting function 0530 controls AIR. See “AIR” on page 34.

Compressor protection
This feature forces the compressor to wait a few minutes before restarting, to prevent equipment damage. During the wait time, the message “Wait” is displayed on screen.

Auto changeover
This feature is used in climates where both air conditioning and heating are used on the same day. When the system is set to AUTO, the thermostat automatically selects heating or cooling depending on the indoor temperature. Heat and cool settings must be at least 3 degrees apart. The thermostat will automatically adjust settings to maintain this 3-degree separation.
Note: System setting function 0300 controls Auto changeover.

Setting Functions And Options

You can change options for a number of system functions. Available functions depend on the type of system you have. The functions, designated with four-digit numbers, along with available options are described on pages 31–35.

This thermostat is pre-set for a single-stage heating/cooling system. Setting function 0170 for a heat pump will adjust the default settings.
