      Low Battery Detection and Replacement

      Braeburn-505-Non-Programmable-Thermostats-FIG.9

      This thermostat requires two (2) properly installed “AA” alkaline batteries to provide back-up power for the thermostat. The thermostat must have 24 Volt AC power present for proper system operation and control.
      This thermostat is equipped with a low battery detection feature that constantly monitors the batteries during normal operating mode to determine whether they have sufficient power to provide back-up power.

      When this feature determines that the battery status is low, a low battery indicator will appear in the display. It is recommended that the batteries be replaced immediately to maintain the system clock in the event of a power outage.

      Replacing the Batteries

      1. Open the thermostat cover and locate the battery compartment door.
      2. Gently remove the two “AA” alkaline batteries located in the battery compartment.
      3. Install two new “AA” alkaline batteries into battery compartment. Make sure to match the positive (+) ends of the batteries with the positive (+) terminals located in the battery compartment.
      4. Close battery compartment and verify that the low battery indicator does not appear in the display.

      Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)

      This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the cooling system from short cycling. This thermostat automatically provides a 5-minute delay after turning off the cooling system output to protect the compressor. This protection is also present in the heat mode of operation on single stage heat pump systems to protect the compressor.
      In order to maximize comfort and energy efficiency, this thermostat is equipped with an Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™). This feature minimizes the amount of time required by the heating or cooling system to reach the new setpoint, after a setback period is completed, and assures your desired temperature is achieved at your set program times.
      This feature activates when recovering room temperature from setback programs to comfort programs, so it will only take place when the current (heating) program setpoint temperature is lower than the upcoming program setpoint temperature, or the current (cooling) program setpoint temperature is higher than the upcoming program setpoint temperature.
      During ARM™, room temperature is recovered gradually by turning on the heating or cooling before the end of the set back period. The setpoint temperature is changed to that of the upcoming comfort program temperature. The start time of recovery is based on the difference between the current room temperature and the upcoming comfort program setpoint temperature. The recovery to the upcoming setpoint starts 10 minutes before the upcoming setpoint time for each degree of temperature change required, up to a maximum of 2 hours.

      Braeburn-505-Non-Programmable-Thermostats-FIG.10

      Filter Check Monitor (see section 4.3.3 for setting)

      The Filter Check Monitor displays a reminder for required filter replacement or cleaning, by flashing the FILT segment in the display. See instructions on your filter or heating/cooling unit for recommendations for interval setting.

      When the selected interval has been reached, and required cleaning or replacement has been performed, press the RETURN button in any normal mode to reset the timer and turn off the warning.

      Resetting the Thermostat

      The Reset feature allows the user to completely reset the thermostat to register new manual switch settings.

      1. To erase all entered programs, current time of day, day of week and other user settings, gently press the RESET button using a paper clip or a small pencil tip.
      2. This will return all thermostat settings to their default values and register all new manual switch settings for proper operation.
