your investment, please read this manual and acquaint yourself with your
purchase before installing your new thermostat. Then follow the installation
procedures, one step at a time. This will save you time and minimize the chance
of damaging the thermostat and the systems it controls. These instructions may

heating.
In the summer, set the switch to COOL to control your system while cooling.
Press the TEMPERATURE UP or DOWN key in order to show the
current SET TEMPERATURE.
Press TEMPERATURE UP or DOWN keys again until your desired

will keep the display lit until no button has been pressed for over ten seconds.
In spring and fall or when windows are open, you can set the system switch
to OFF.
Setting the FAN switch to AUTO automatically runs your system’s fan during
heating and cooling.
Setting the FAN switch to ON runs your system’s fan continuously even
without heating or cooling.
Setting the Mode switch to EMER (emergency heat) runs your Emergency
heating system rather than the heat pump.
NOTE
The FAN switch works only if your system provides a wire for a thermostat’s “G” terminal.
INSTALLATION
Please read all instructions carefully before beginning installation.
CAUTION
*** Turn off electricity to the appliance before installing or
servicing thermostat or any part of the system. Do not turn
electricity back on until work is completed. ***
Do not short (jumper) across electric terminals at control on furnace or air
conditioner to test the system. This will damage the thermostat and void
your warranty.
All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.
This thermostat is designed for use with 24 volt systems. The thermostat

THERMOSTAT LOCATION
On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in place of the old
one unless the conditions listed below suggest otherwise. On new installations,
follow the guidelines listed below.
Remember that your PSDH121 may be mounted vertically or horizontally
when determining the optimal location.
Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor,
and in a room that is used often.
Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct
sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiator, register, or fireplace; near hot
water pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of a wall.
Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an
unheated room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.
Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that will shorten
thermostat life.
Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as: in a corner or an alcove;
or behind an open door.
Do not install the unit until all construction work and painting has been
completed.
