ELECTRIC HEAT OR SINGLE-STAGE HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS
This thermostat is configured from the factory to operate a heat/ cool, fossil fuel (gas, oil, etc.), forced air system. It is configured correctly for any system that DOES NOT require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for heat. If your system is an electric heat or heat-pump system that REQUIRES the thermostat to turn on the fan on a call for heat, locate the ELECTRIC/GAS switch on switch the back of the thermostat (see fig. 1) and switch it to the ELECTRIC ELECTRIC position. This will allow the thermostat to energize the fan immediately on a call for heat. If you are unsure if the heating/cooling system requires the thermostat to control the fan, contact a qualified heating and air conditioning service person.
ATTACH THERMOSTAT BASE TO WALL
- Remove the packing material from the thermostat. Gently pull the cover straight off the base. Forcing or prying on the thermostat will cause damage to the unit. If necessary, move
the electric heat switch (see ELECTRIC HEAT SYSTEMS, ELECTRIC HEAT SYSTEMS above). - Connect wires beneath terminal screws on base usingzappropriate wiring schematic (see figs. 2 through 7).
- Place base over hole in wall and mark mounting hole locations on wall using base as a template.
- Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes.
- Fasten base loosely to wall, as shown in fig. 1, using two mounting screws. Place a level against bottom of base, adjust until level, and then tighten screws. (Leveling is for appearance only and will not affect thermostat operation.) If you are using existing mounting holes, or if holes drilled are too large and do not allow you to tighten base snugly, use plastic screw anchors to secure subbase.
- Push excess wire into wall and plug hole with a fire-resistant material (such as fiberglass insulation) to prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.
BATTERY LOCATION
2 “AA” alkaline batteries are included in the thermostat at the factory with a battery tag to prevent power drainage. You must You must remove the battery tag to engage the batteries. remove the battery tag to engage the batteries

After 3 hours the thermostat will go back to the programmed temperature and “HOLD” will no longer blink or display.
- Select FA or SL (Fast or Slow) Heating Cycle Rate
The Select FA or SL (Fast or Slow) Heating Cycle Rate FA setting is frequently used for gas, oil, or electric heat. The SL setting produces a longer heating cycle which is normally for hot water or steam (hydronic) systems. Both settings produce very accurate temperature control and can be set to your personal preference. FA cycles the system just under 1°F and the SL setting cycles at approximately 1.5°F. - Select backlit display
Select backlit display The display backlight improves display contrast in low lighting conditions. Selecting the backlight ON will keep the light on for a short period of time after ON any key is pressed. Selecting OFF will keep the light off.
- Select Energy Management Recovery OFF or ON
Select Energy Management Recovery OFF or ON Energy Management Recovery (EMR) causes the thermostat to start heating or cooling early to make the building temperature reach the program setpoint at the time you specify. Heating will start 5 minutes early for every 1° of temperature required to reach setpoint.
Example
You select EMR and have your heating programmed to 65° at night and 70° at 7 AM. If the building temperature is 65° the difference between 65° and 70° is 5°. Allowing 5 minutes per degree the thermostat setpoint will change to 70° at 6:35 AM. Cooling allows more time per degree because it takes longer to reach temperature. - Select filter replacement run time
Select filter replacement run time The thermostat will display “FLTR” after a set time of operation. This is a reminder to change or clean your air filter. This time can be set from 0 to 1950 hours in 50-hour increments. A selection of 000 will cancel this feature. of 000 will cancel this feature. of 000 will cancel this feature. When “FLTR” is “FLTR” displayed, you can clear it by pressing HOLD and RUN at the same time. This resets the timer and starts counting the hours until the next filter change. Changing the time in the menu also resets the timer. - Select Compressor Lockout LOC OFF or ON
Select Compressor Lockout LOC OFF or ON Selecting LOC ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes before turning on the compressor if the heating and the cooling system lose power. It will also wait 5 minutes minimum between cooling cycles. This is intended to help protect the compressor from short cycling. Some newer compressors already have a time delay built in and do not require this feature. Your compressor manufacturer can tell you if the feature is already present in their system. When the compressor time delay occurs it will flash the (snowflake icon) for about five minutes then turn on the compressor. - Select Temperature Display Adjustment 4 LO to 4 HI Select Temperature Display Adjustment 4 LO to 4 HI
Select Temperature Display Adjustment 4 LO to 4 HI Allows you to adjust the room temperature display to 4° higher or lower. Your thermostat was accurately calibrated at the factory but you have the option to change the display temperature to match your previous thermostat. - Select F° or C° Readout Select F° or C° Readout
Select F° or C° Readout Changes the display readout to Centigrade or Fahrenheit as required.

PROGRAMMING YOUR THERMOSTAT
This section will help you plan your thermostat’s program to meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.
- When heating (cooling) your building, program the temperatures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is vacant or during periods of low activity.
- During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually minimal.
Planning Your Program
Look at the factory preprogrammed times and temperatures are shown in the sample schedule. If this program will suit your needs, simply press the RUN button to begin running the factory preset program.
If you want to change the preprogrammed times and temperatures, follow these steps.
Determine the time periods and temperatures for your weekday and weekend programs. You must program four periods for both the weekday and weekend programs. However, you may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time periods. You can choose start times, heating temperatures, and cooling temperatures independently for both weekday and weekend programs (for example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70° as the weekday 1st-period heating start time and temperature, and also choose 7:00 AM and 76° as the weekday 1st-period cooling start time and temperature). Determine the time periods and temperatures for your weekday and weekend programs. You must program four periods for both the weekday and weekend programs. However, you may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time periods. You can choose start times, heating temperatures, and cooling temperatures independently for both weekday and weekend programs (for example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70° as the weekday 1st-period heating start time and temperature, and also choose 7:00 AM and 76° as the weekday 1st-period cooling start time and temperature).

Frequently Asked Questions
How to install it?
It’s very simple, I’m a woman who knew nothing about thermostats and I installed them myself. When you take the old thermostat off just label the wires( I believe the labels were in the new thermostat) then disconnect the wires and install them on the new one. Everything is clearly labeled on the thermostat. It took me about 15 minutes to do it by myself.
Does it have to be connected to program it or can you program it off the wall?
It has a battery backup so it can be programmed off of the wall.
I currently have a model 1F86-344 non programmable thermostat. Can I just replace that model with this programmable thermostat?
My understanding is yes. Have used both at my house. Love my programmable – makes it so much easier.
Do you leave the jumper in place for a 2-wire heat-only installation?
You can remove the jumper and put it in the empty thermostat shipping box. That’s for an air conditioning application. Attach your red wire to the RH and your white wire to the W. It’s a good thermostat. You’ll like it. “Remember to turn the power switch off at the furnace or shut the breaker off at the breaker box before working on your thermostat”
How long will the batteries last?
They last a long time. You could probably get away with changing them yearly. You could be more proactive and change them the same time that you change your smoke and carbon monoxide detector batteries when you change your clocks every 6 months for daylight savings time.
Why do time and room temperature flash?
There is not enough room on the digital display screen to keep both temp and time displayed.
Can I remove this unit from the mount so I can set it ion a table to program it?
As long as the batteries remain in the unit, I believe you can. You’d need to unscrew it from the wall, disconnect the wires, etc. So it’s really not worth it, as it is pretty easy to program to begin with.
Does it make a loud click or a light click or no click at all when it turns on/off?
It makes a light click when turning on or off. it runs on 2 AA batteries so its likely a pretty small relay in there.
The unit occasionally shuts down, and won’t restart. Does anyone know why, and how to remedy this? We’re wondering if it shuts down with power and loss.
I have two of them. I m thinking batteries. If replacing batteries didn’t solve then it might be on the furnace side. Or you have a defective unit. My opinion only.
I need a thermostat lock on the unit. Can anyone recommend one?
The Honeywell Thermostat Guard will cover the unit and offer protection from tampering.
Will this place the White-Rogers 1F80-51 thermostat?
I use this thermostat for heat only, if you have a 3 wire system it should work OK
Does this still need to be wired?
Yes it needs to be wired. But if you are placing an existing thermostat the existing wires should correspond nicely to the new connector block on the new thermostat. Take pictures of the existing setup before you break out the screwdriver! It helps.
Will this work for a propane gas furnace?
Propane or natural gas, the fuel shouldn’t make any difference. The only difference in the heating unit are the jets in the fuel feed. I live in the country, and my fuel is propane also. This is the thermostat that was installed by the original contractor, and what I have used as a replacement.
Can you replace 1f80-224 with this 1f80-361 (my understanding is that wiring should be fine and 361 ads a heating pump)? The family prefers the looks of 361
I don’t know if the 361 supports a heat pump option. I do not have a heat pump. Only AC and gas heat. I needed to replace my old non-heat pump thermostat when died. This was just a newer model of my existing dead one. The instructions have options for many different setups.
Can the thermostat be connected to an oil heating system? Does the thermostat ship with a mounting plate to connect to the wall?
It does come with a mounting plate. I’m not sure about oil vs gas. However, it’s job is to sense temperature and turn on or off an electric signal.
Will this thermostat work with a furnace that has zoned heating?
Don’t know. Try reading the online instruction manual. Do a Google search “zone heating and the model number’
Is this a smart thermostat?
It is not a smart thermostat in the vein of a Nest or similar, e.g., no WiFi or Internet access, but it is programmable for 5 days during the week as well as Saturday and Sunday separately. Because I work from home, I have not messed with the programming aspects of it, so I cannot speak to how easy or complicated it is to set up. For what it is I am very happy with the product.
