Radio and Television Interference This Smart Controller has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. The Smart Controller generates and radiates radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Smart Controller does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by pressing any button on the Smart Controller, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the Smart Controller and the receiver. • Consult the dealer that installed the Smart Controller for help. In order to maintain compliance with FCC regulations, the Smart Controller must not be modified in any way and only approved batteries must be used. The user is cautioned that changes and modifications made to this Smart Controller could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. 3 Battery Replacement - Alkaline AA When the “Low Bat” symbol appears on the Smart Controller display you should replace the batteries. Remove the Smart Controller from the wall by lifting the main body of the Smart Controller up. The battery cover / mounting bracket will remain attached to the wall. Turn the Smart Controller over and remove the old batteries. Please discard the batteries properly. NEVER discard the old batteries into a fire. Replace the batteries with two new AA batteries of the same type and manufacturer. Home Comfort Zones recommends using alkaline batteries. Please ensure that the batteries are correctly inserted into the Smart Controller. Match the polarity of the battery with the label inside the Smart Controller battery case. Declaration of Conformity Model Number: SC-02 Trade Name: Home Comfort Zones Responsible Party: Home Comfort Zones Inc. Address: 8239 SW Cirrus Drive, Beaverton, Oregon 97008 U.S.A. Telephone: (503) 626-2797 This devices complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 4 Quick Start - Using your Smart Controller On / Saver - Enables conditioning to the room, or places the room in “saver” mode. Increase Temperature - Up arrow will temporarily increase the temperature in the room. Decrease Temperature - Down arrow will temporarily decrease the temperature in the room. Battery cover / mounting bracket - The Smart Controller can be mounted on a wall by using 3M Command Adhesive™ or by using two 6x1 inch drywall screws. Product Label Smart Controller ID Label - Each Smart Controller requires a unique identification number. Your dealer will program this ID at installation and record the number on this label. 5 ON SET 72° SAVER LOW BAT Conditioning is “On” for the room. Indicates that a temporary temperature is set. Conditioning is in “saver” mode for the room 1 . 1. The system default for “saver” mode is 60° for heating / 90° for air conditioning. Circulation will occur periodically to avoid stale air. Indicates that the Smart Controller needs new batteries. Placement of your Smart Controller The key to your comfort is the proper placement of the Smart Controller. The Smart Controller is more than a thermostat, it is your local interface to your Home Comfort Zones climate control system. The Smart Controller contains a very accurate temperature sensor. In order for the Smart Controller to function properly you will need to consider several factors. DO NOT place the Smart Controller: • Behind doors, in corners or other dead air spaces. • In direct sunlight or near lamps, appliances or other sources of radiant heat. • On an outside wall or wall exposed to an unconditioned space (i.e. garage, etc.). • In the flow path of a supply register, in stairways or near outside doors. • On a wall where concealed pipes and/or ductwork will affect the thermostat. • Near sources of electrical interference such as arcing relay contacts. Your installer will work with you to determine the proper location in each room. Although the Smart Controller can be placed anywhere, we recommend that you mount it to the wall to ensure it stays in the room it is controlling and does not get lost. (If the Smart Controller is removed from the room it is assigned to, your system will not function properly.) 6 Using Your Smart Controller The Smart Controller is just one part of your new Home Comfort Zones climate con- trol system. In order for the Smart Controller to function properly, your entire system should be installed and set up by a professional Home Comfo…
