Remove Old Thermostat  
“AA” Alkaline Batteries  
A standard heat/cool thermostat consists of three basic parts:  
1. The cover, which may be either a snap-on or hinge type.  
2. The base, which is removed by loosening all captive screws.  
3. The switching subbase, which is removed by unscrewing  
the mounting screws that hold it on the wall or adapter  
plate. Before removing wires from old thermostat,  
label each wire with the terminal designation from  
which it was attached. Disconnect the wires from the old  
thermostat one at a time. Do not let wires fall back into  
the wall.  
Thermostat can be powered by system AC power or Battery.  
If  
is displayed the thermostat is battery powered. If  
is not displayed, thermostat is system powered with  
optional battery back-up. When battery power remaining is  
approximately half the will be displayed. If the home is  
going to be unoccupied for an extended period (over 3  
months ) and is displayed, the batteries should be  
replaced before leaving. When Change is displayed,  
install fresh “AA” alkaline batteries immediately. The setpoint  
temperature will offset by 10 degrees (10 degrees cooler in  
heat mode / 10 degrees warmer in Cool mode) when less  
than two months of battery life remain. (If offset occurs the  
Installing New Thermostat  
1. Pull the thermostat body off the thermostat base. Forcing  
or prying on the thermostat will cause damage to the unit.  
2. Place base over hole in wall and mark mounting hole  
locations on wall using base as a template.  
3. Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes. If you  
are using existing mounting holes and the holes drilled  
are too large and do not allow you to tighten base snug-  
ly, use plastic screw anchors to secure the base.  
4. Fasten base snugly to wall using mounting holes shown  
in Figure 2 and two mounting screws. Leveling is for  
appearance only and will not affect thermostat operation.

SS/HP Switch  
(Conventional or Heat Pump Selection)  
The SS/HP switch is factory set to the SS position. In this  
position, thermostat is configured as conventional single  
stage. If you have a single stage heat pump system, switch  
SS/HP to HP position (see figure 2).  
Electric/Gas Switch (Fan Option)  
The ELEC/GAS switch is factory set to the GAS position. In  
this position, the thermostat will not power the circulator fan  
on a call for heat, but will power the circulator on a call for  
cool.  
GAS  
ELEC  
SS  
HP  
If your system requires that the thermostat power the  
circulator fan on a call for heat, this switch should be set to  
the ELEC position. Typically, gas and oil heating systems do  
not require the thermostat to power the circulator fan during  
a call for heat. If your heat is gas or oil, the switch should be  
set to the GAS position.  
WIRING CONNECTIONS  
Refer to equipment manufacturers' instructions for specific  
system wiring information. After wiring, see CONFIGURA-  
TION section for proper thermostat configuration.  
TERMINAL DESIGNATION DESCRIPTIONS  
When the thermostat is configured for Heat Pump, the  
thermostat will always power the circulator fan on a call for  
heat in the HEAT mode.

system running time and save energy. When the cooling  
system has been running for more than 20 minutes,  
humidity in the home will be lower and a higher setpoint  
temperature will feel comfortable. After 20 minutes of run  
time, the thermostat will start increasing the setpoint  
temperature in steps of less than one degree as the  
system continues to run. These adjustments will eventu-  
ally cause the system to satisfy the thermostat to turn the  
system off and reduce the energy consumption. When  
the Cool Savings™ feature is active and making adjust-  
ments, the display will show “Save” next to the setpoint  
temperature. The amount of the adjustments to the  
setpoint temperature is dependent on the Cool Savings™  
value that is set, 1 being the least adjustment and 6 being  
the most adjustment. With this feature set to OFF, no  
change will occur when the AC system is continuously  
running during the periods of high demand. Periods of  
high demand will normally occur during the late afternoon  
and early evening on the hottest days of the summer.  
1) Select Reversing Valve Output (Heat Pump switch S8  
must be set at HP) – The O/B option is factory set at  
"O" position. This will accommodate the majority of heat  
pump applications, which require the changeover relay to  
be energized in COOL. If the thermostat you are replac-  
ing or the heat pump being installed with this thermostat  
requires a "B" terminal, to energize the changeover relay  
in HEAT, the O/B option should be set at "B" position.  
2) Program Options: This control can be configured for 5/2  
day or 5/1/1 day programming or non-programming mode.  
The default setting is P2, indicating 5/2 day programming.  
The programs per week can be toggled to P3 or P0 by  
pressing the  
or  
keys. A selection of 0 Days for  
non-programmable will eliminate the need for EMR, and  
that step in the menu will be skipped.  
3) Select Cool Savings™: With Cool Savings™ enabled,  
the thermostat will make small adjustments to the setpoint  
temperature during periods of high demand to reduce AC

INSTALLER/CONFIGURATION MENU  
4) Energy Management Recovery: (this step is skipped if  
configured to be non-programmable).  
9) System Mode Configuration – This thermostat is  
configured for Heat and Cool with Auto changeover  
(SYSTEM switch with Cool Off Heat Auto) default. It can  
also be configured for Heat and Cool (Cool Off Heat),  
Heat only with fan (Off Heat), Heat only without fan,  
Auto only (Auto Off), and Cool only (Cool Off).  
10)Select Backlight Display – The display backlight  
improves display contrast in low lighting conditions. When  
the "C" terminal is powered, selecting backlight CdL ON  
will keep the light on continuously. Select backlight OFF  
will keep the light on momentarily after any key is  
pressed. When the "C" terminal is not powered, the light  
will be on momentarily after any key is pressed no matter  
whether the backlight is selected ON or OFF.  
Energy Management Recovery (E) On enables 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: If E On is selected and have your heating pro-  
grammed 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 set-  
point will change to 70° at 6:35 AM. Cooling allows more  
time per degree, because it takes longer to reach set  
temperature.  
5, 6 & 7) Cycle Rate Selection – The factory default setting  
for Heat is medium cycle (ME), which cycles heat at  
approximately 0.6°F. If you prefer fast or slow cycle,  
11)Select Temperature Display Adjustment 4 LO to 4 HI  
Allows you to adjust the room temperature display up to  
4° higher or lower. Your thermostat was accurately cali-  
brated at the factory, but you have the option to change

stat. The current or adjusted room temperature will be  
displayed on the left side of the display.  
press the  
or  
key to change to FA or SL. Heat

1.7°F. For Cool the default setting is fast cycle (FA CR),  
13)Select Filter Replacement Run Time – The thermostat  
will display "Change Filter" after a set time of blower  
operation. This is a reminder to change or clean your air  
filter. This time can be set from 25 to 1975 hours in 25  
hour increments. A selection of OFF will cancel this  
feature. When "Change Filter" is displayed, you can  
clear it by pressing Menu button. In a typical application,  
200 hours of run time is approximately 30 days.  
which cycles cool at approximately 1.2°F.  
If you prefer slow cycle, press the  
or  
key to  
change to SL, cool will cycle at approximately 1.7°F.  
8) Select Compressor Lockout CL OFF or ON – Selecting  
CL ON will cause the thermostat to wait 5 minutes be-  
tween cooling cycles. This is intended to help protect the  
compressor from short cycling. Some newer compres-  
sors already have a time delay built in and do not require  
this feature. Your compressor manufacturer can tell you if  
the lockout feature is already present in their system.  
When the thermostat compressor time delay occurs, it  
will flash the setpoint for up to five minutes.

Planning Your Program – Important  
The Heating and Cooling Program schedules below allow you to pencil in your own program times and temperatures.  
The 1F80-0471 comes configured for 5/2 day programming and can also be configured for 5+1+1 programming (see configu-  
ration section).  
Factory settings are listed on Monday through Friday, Saturday and Sunday. If you are re-programming a 5/2 day schedule,  
pencil in your own times and temperatures directly below the factory times and temperatures.  
If you are re-programming a 5+1+1 fill in all lines with the times and temperatures you want.  
Keep the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.  
• In Heating, lower temperatures will save energy.  
• In Cooling, higher temperatures will save energy.  
If you plan on using Auto Changeover, do not program the heating higher than the cooling.

(common problems)  
3. Furnace blower compartment door or  
panel loose or not properly installed.  
Replace door panel in proper position to engage safety  
interlock or door switch.  
4. Loose connection to thermostat or system. Tighten connections.  
1. Pilot light not lit.  
Re-light pilot.  
No Heat  
2. Furnace Lock-Out Condition. Heat  
may also be intermittent.  
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.  
3. Heating system requires service or  
thermostat requires replacement.  
Diagnostic: Set SYSTEM Switch to HEAT 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.  
1. Cooling system requires service or  
thermostat requires replacement.  
Same as diagnostic for No Heat condition except set the  
thermostat to COOL and lower the setpoint below the  
room temperature. There may be up to a five minute delay  
before the thermostat clicks in Cooling.  
No Cool  
1. Possible short in wiring.  
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.

1. The location of the thermostat and/or  
the size of the Heating System may  
be influencing 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 SL for slow cycle in the Configuration  
menu, step 6 (heat), 7 (cool) or 8 (heat pump). If an  
acceptable cycle rate is not achieved, contact a local  
HVAC service person for additional suggestions.
