Installation Instructions

To Install Thermostat

IMPORTANT: Thermostat installation must conform to

local and national building and electrical codes and

ordinances.

NOTE: Mount the thermostat about five feet above the

floor. Do not mount the thermostat on an outside wall, in

direct sunlight, behind a door or in an area affected by a

vent or duct.

1. Turn off power to the heating and cooling system by

removing the fuse or switching off the appropriate circuit

breaker. (120 VAC and 12VDC).

2. Remove the cover from the base by undoing the

two plastic snaps on the bottom of the base. A small

screwdriver or ballpoint pen can be used to gently

depress one snap at a time. (reference the figure

above).

3. Put thermostat base against the wall where you plan

to mount it. Make sure wires will feed through the wire

opening in the base of the thermostat.

4. With the base level, mark the placement of the mounting

holes.

5 Ensure no other wires are affected by the drilling of 1/8”

holes.

6. Using a 1/8” drill bit, drill pilot holes in the locations you

have marked for the wood screws.

8. Align thermostat base with mounting holes and feed the

control wires through the wire opening.

Apply screwdriver or ballpoint pen

here to open thermostat

Controls and Operating Functions

1. Mode Button

Controls operating mode of the air conditoner. Use this button

to toggle between OFF, Fan only, Cool, Heat Pump, Heat

Pump + Furnace, and Furnace modes.

Only use heat pump mode in conjunction with ARH15AAC*

models (See installation for heat pump models).

In OFF mode, the air conditioner and furnace will not operate.

In Fan Only mode, the fan will operate to circulate air through

the RV.

In Cool mode, the air conditoner will operate to lower the RV

temperature to the setpoint.

In Heat Pump Mode, the unit will operate to raise the RV tem-

perature to the setpoint if the setpoint is within 4°F (2°C) of the

RV temperature.

In Heat Pump + Furnace Mode, If you are beyond a 4°F (2°C)

is recommended for use during night operation or when large

drops in temperature re expected.

In Furnace mode, the RV’s furnace will operate to raise the RV

temperature to the setpoint.

2. Fan Button

Controls operating speed and mode of the fan. Use this button

to toggle between low and high fan speeds.

Use this button to toggle between “FAN ON” and “AUTO FAN”.

In “FAN ON” mode, the fan will run even when the setpoint has

been reached.

On Board Diagnostics

Ŷ

Minimum Off Time:

To minimize short cycling, after the compressor shuts

off, it cannot restart until 3 minutes have passed.

Ŷ

Freeze-up Prevention:

In COOLING Mode, the display will flash a snowflake

symbol to indicate the coil is freezing. The compressor

will not operate in this mode. To troubleshoot, it is

recommended to increase airflow by cleaning the filter

and opening the vents.

Ŷ

Low Voltage Detection:

If the 12VDC drops below 10.5, the thermostat will

switch to “OFF” mode and the display will show “Lo”.

When voltage exceeds 10.5V, the display will cease

to show “Lo” , remain in “OFF” mode and other modes

must be reselected by the user.

Ŷ

Heat Pump Lockout:

In HEAT PUMP Mode, if the outdoor temperature

drops below 32°F (0°C), the display will flash both

the HEAT PUMP icon and 32°F (0°C). During Heat-

Pump Lockout, the unit will not produce heat. When

temperatures below 32°F (0°C) are expected, it is

recommended to use HEAT PUMP+FURNACE Mode

or FURNACE Mode.

Ŷ

Heat Pump Defrost:

In HEAT PUMP Mode, if the system detects frost build

up on the outdoor coil, the display will flash the Heat

Pump icon and cease to operate until fully defrosted.

If you are in HEAT PUMP + FURNACE Mode, the

unit will use the furnace until the heat pump is fully

defrosted.

Ŷ

Heat Pump Over Temperature Protection:

In HEAT PUMP Mode, or Heat Pump and Furnace

Mode, if the indoor coil reaches a temperature above

125°F (52°C), the display will flash both the HEAT

PUMP icon and either 99°F or 99°C on the display.

While Over Temperature Protection is activated, the

compressor will not run. It is recommended to increase

airflow by cleaning the filter and opening the vents.
