SWING SETTING:  
A thermostat works by turning your heating system on and off whenever  
the room temperature varies from the set-point temperature. The  
amount of this variation is called the “swing”. Your system should cycle  
on about 3 to 6 times per hour. A smaller swing number increases the  
number of cycles per hour, so the room temperature is more precise and  
constant. A larger swing number decreases the number of cycles per  
hour, but saves energy in most cases. To change the Swing setting, turn  
the dial to RUN mode. Hold down the NEXT button and push the HOLD  
button once, then let go of both. A single number will appear on the  
screen. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to change the number value between  
1 and 9. Number 1 is the default setting. Press the NEXT button to  
accept the setting and return to normal Run mode.

COMPATIBILITY  
MINIMUM RUN TIME DELAY:  
NOTE:  
This programmable thermostat is compatible with Single or Double pole,  
120/240 VAC, line voltage electric heating systems up to 16 Amps. The  
heating wattage rating is 1900 Watts (Resistive) for 120 VAC, and 3800  
Watts (Resistive) for 240 VAC. This thermostat can also be used with  
120/240 VAC line voltage Hydronic (hot water) heating systems with  
motors up to 1/4 HP.  
This is determined by the thermostat, and controls the minimum length  
of time that the thermostat must remain with the Heat either On or Off,  
before it will automatically switch to the alternate On or Off state. This  
feature prevents rapid undesired cycling of the heating equipment. The  
time amount for this delay is fixed at 5 minutes between on or off load  
changes.  
This thermostat is protected against normal static electric  
discharges, however to minimize the risk of damaging the unit in  
extremely dry weather, touch a grounded metal object before  
touching your thermostat.  
This thermostat cannot be used with: cooling systems, typical 24 volt  
systems, or heat pump systems. Ask your dealer for other LUX  
thermostats to control those systems.  
SETUP OPTIONS  
The settings, options, and components  
listed in this section below are located  
on the rear of the thermostat, on the  
circuit board.  
PROGRAMMING  
NOTE: Disconnection Type: “TYPE 1B”.  
For the two program types that are described below, this thermostat  
provides four independent periods per day for Heat mode, they are:  
MORN, DAY, EVE, and NITE. Each period ends at the start time of the  
following period. When you install batteries for the first time, or perform  
a Software Reset, a default temperature program (shown below) is  
inserted into all four of the program periods. You can use this default  
program, or alter any portion of it to suit your own preferences. When  
setting the program items, the value that is flashing is the item that you  
can change at that time.

appropriately.  
ROTARY DIAL:  
The LUX Speed Dial® provides an easy way to  
quickly navigate between the different  
programming areas. This rotary dial has four  
individual positions.  
Install two new Energizer® or DURACELL®, “AA” size alkaline batteries  
into the battery tray. Observe the polarity markings shown in the battery  
compartment to ensure proper installation. When finished, re-install the  
battery compartment by first seating the bottom into its alignment pins,  
and pivoting the top in towards the thermostat to snap the latch back  
into place.  
• The thermostat is rated for normal full load current from a double 20A  
circuit breaker or fuse block. Do not use on circuits with current  
protection devices that are rated higher than 20 amps.  
• Maximum load for this thermostat MUST NOT exceed 3800 Watts,  
otherwise a potential fire hazard exists.  
HEAT / OFF SWITCH:  
This switch is located on the right side of the  
power unit (back half of thermostat) as shown to  
the right. In the winter, set the power switch to  
HEAT to control your heating system. In the  
spring, summer, and fall, set the switch to OFF if  
you would like to prevent your heating system  
from turning on.  
MOUNTING LOCATION:  
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE  
Install a vertical, electrical switch box for mounting the thermostat  
approximately 5 Feet (1.5 Meters) above the floor on an inside wall  
where the thermostat will be exposed to average room temperature. The  
use of a “deep” style switch box will make the installation easier by  
providing more room for making the wiring connections. The thermostat  
must be placed away from concealed warm or cold water pipes, air  
ducts, or drafts from hallways, direct sunlight, fireplaces, or stairways in  
order to sense room temperature properly. Do not place the thermostat  
directly above any of the heating elements.  
If you have any problems installing or using this thermostat, please  
carefully and thoroughly review the instruction manual. If you require  
assistance, please contact our Technical Assistance Department at  
856-234-8803 during regular business hours between 8:00AM and  
4:30PM Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday. You can also  
receive technical assistance online anytime day or night at  
most common technical questions, and also permits you to email your  
questions to our technical support staff at your convenience.  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
SET DAY/TIME:  
Rotate the dial to the SET DAY/TIME position. The day of the week will  
start flashing on the display. With the day flashing, press the UP button,  
once for each day, to advance to the desired day of the week. Press the  
NEXT button; this should cause the time to start flashing and the day to

TEMPERATURE OVERRIDE:  
WIRING:  
A Temperature Override occurs in Run mode, anytime the user adjusts  
the set temperature to a value other than what the stored program set  
temperature is for that day and time. When the thermostat is in an  
Override, the word “OVERRIDE” will appear in the bottom of the display  
screen. The thermostat will maintain thermal control using this new set  
temperature, until the start of the next program period time is reached.  
At that time, the set temperature will return to the value stored in  
memory for that new program period. To enter an Override, push either  
the UP or DOWN button once and the set temperature will begin to flash.  
Push either the UP or DOWN button to the desired set temperature value.  
An Override may be cancelled by rotating the dial or by initiating a HOLD.  
1. Disconnect power before removing your old thermostat (if applicable).  
Double check that this thermostat is rated for the voltage and  
amperage to be switched.  
2. Remove the front portion of the thermostat by carefully pressing the  
button at the bottom of the thermostat and swinging the body up and  
away.  
3. When replacing an old line voltage wall thermostat, remove it carefully  
to avoid damage to the insulation on the wiring. Check the old  
insulation for cracks, nicks, or fraying and apply certified electrical  
tape where necessary to achieve adequate insulation, or replace the  
wires in an approved fashion.  
4. Use the diagrams shown in the “WIRE IDENTIFICATION AND WIRING  
SCHEMATICS” section of this manual to ensure that the thermostat  
connections are made to the proper wires for your installation.  
TEMPERATURE HOLD:  
A Temperature Hold is similar to an override, but is used for maintaining  
a constant set temperature under manual control, for a longer time  
duration. A Hold is the simplest means to set and maintain a fixed  
temperature. It allows you to set and maintain a fixed temperature  
indefinitely, without concern for programming.  
5. Attach the wires together using the solder-less wire connectors  
(provided), and be sure that all wire connectors are tight and secure.  
MERCURY WARNING AND RECYCLING NOTICE
