sensor out of its clip
and bend the wire so
that it point straight up.
This is required for
accurate temperature
control.
4. On the upper right
side of the unit, there is
an On/Off switch.
Place this switch in the
OFF position for right
now.
UP/DOWN CHANGE KEYS
●
These are the two upper keys, just right of the unit’s
display. They are used to adjust set temperatures, and
make other setting changes.
●
Pressing these keys once will adjust a setting one
step in the associated direction.
●
If there are many choices for a value, usually that set-
ting will advance while holding one of these keys. Some
settings though, must be changed one press at a time.
SET DAY AND TIME
MOUNTING
To set the correct time after the unit has lost power or
after reset:
1. Open the door on the front of the thermostat by lifting
up the bottom of the door.
2. Rotate the dial to SET DAY AND TIME.
The abbreviation for the day of week will flash.
W A R N I N G :
●
If any plugs do not fit into the receptacle that you
are trying to plug into, Stop, the PSP300 is not
designed for this application.
●
If the cord you are plugging into the PSP300 only
has 2 prongs, STOP, not having
a ground wire is unsafe. Your
Window Air Conditioner or Spacer
Heater must have a plug with 3
prongs on it.

5. Plug the PSP300 straight into a 110 Volt electrical out-
let on the wall nearest your Air Conditioning Unit or
Space Heater.
6. Plug in the electrical cord from your Window Air
Conditioner or Space Heater directly into the front of the
PSP300.
COMPLETING YOUR INSTALLATION
7. Configure your thermostat at this time. Refer to
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
8. Turn the ON/OFF switch on the upper right side to the
ON position.
9. Turn on your Air Conditioner or Space Heater and turn
the thermostat all the way up. (This will allow the
PSP300 to control the room temperature and maintain a
specific temperature)
3. Use the UP key to advance to the current day.
4. Press NEXT to adjust the time. Time will flash.
5. Use the UP/DOWN keys to set the time.
6. Pressing NEXT again will toggle from Set Time to Set
Day, or vice versa.
7. Return the dial to its RUN position.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL MODES
When a unit has first been powered up with the dial in
the RUN position, your thermostat will begin to control
your heating and/or air conditioning system according to
it's default ENERGY STAR® approved program. There is
a 2-position slide switch to change temperature control
modes. Slide the switch to the mode you would like to
use.
10. Verify that the Window Air Conditioner or Space
Heater and its fan are operating properly. When set to a
high temperature, the heating system should provide
warm air after a short time. Likewise, a cooling system
should provide cool air after a short time. Usually sound
can be heard while they are running. The rush of mov-
ing air should be heard within a short time after either
has been started.
11. Your installation is now complete.

ADVANCED FEATURES
CALIBRATION OFFSET
TEMPERATURE VARIATION / SWING
Your thermostat works by turning your heating or
cooling system on and off whenever the room temper-
ature varies a certain number of degrees from the set-
point temperature. This variation is the "swing". Your
system should cycle on about 3 to 6 times per hour. A
smaller swing number increases the number of cycles,
so room temperature is more constant. A larger swing
number decreases the number of cycles, saving ener-
gy in most cases.
Your thermostat is accurately calibrated at the factory
to within + 1°F. An offset value up to +5°F may be
added to the temperature value that the thermostat
measures. This may allow you to match this thermostat
to another.
To change this offset from its default value of 0:
1. Open the door on the front of the thermostat.
2. Rotate the dial to SET DAY/TIME.
3. Simultaneously press NEXT and HOLD. The
Temperature Offset value will flash.
SWING ADJUSTMENT
This setting controls when the heating or cooling
turns on and off.
●
The Swing setting sets the temperature variation the
system allows above or below the set temperature
before turning on the heating or Cooling. To change
this value:
1. Rotate the SPEED DIAL® to RUN.
2. Press NEXT and HOLD simultaneously. The
Temperature section of the display shows a single digit
number between 1 and 9.
4. The default value is 0 and in most cases should
remain untouched.
5. Use the UP/DOWN keys to adjust the offset value.
6. Return the dial to its RUN position to accept the new
value.

power to retain your programs and settings if you unplug it
from the wall. These (2) batteries will need to be changed
once every year. The thermostat will alert you when the bat-
teries are low by displaying "LO BATT" in the display.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
