SETTING AND CHECKOUT
IMPORTANT
Make sure all wiring connections are tight.
After the thermostat has been installed and wired, simulate
normal operation as follows.
ᕡ Turn the setting dial completely clockwise. The electric
heater should start to heat.
ᕢ Turn the dial completely counterclockwise. The power
circuit should be broken and the electric heater should
start to cool.
ᕣ To determine the final setting, move the dial indicator to
the 70°F (21°C) position on the scale. If the setting is
not satisfactory after a minimum of two hours of
thermostat operation, turn the dial indicator to raise or
lower the temperature. Move the indicator only a few
degrees each time an adjustment is necessary.
