To reset your Honeywell thermostat to cool, you will need to perform a factory reset. Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Press the “System” button on your thermostat. This button is typically located on the bottom right corner of the screen.
2. Once you are on the System screen, look for a blank box in the center. Press and hold this blank box for a few seconds. This will bring up a menu for advanced settings.
3. On the advanced settings menu, you will see a number displayed on the left side of the screen. Use the arrow buttons or the + and – buttons to change this number to 0710. This number represents the date in the format MMDD (Month and Day).
4. Next, you will see a number displayed on the right side of the screen. Use the same arrow buttons or + and – buttons to change this number to 1. This number represents the time in the format HH (Hour).
5. After you have entered the correct date and time values, press the “Done” button to save the changes.
6. Congratulations! You have successfully reset your Honeywell thermostat to its factory settings. This will erase any customized settings and return the thermostat to its default configuration.
Now, you can proceed to configure your thermostat for its new settings. Here’s how you can do it:
1. On the thermostat screen, you will see various options and settings. Use the arrow buttons or touch screen (if available) to navigate through the menus.
2. Look for the “Cool” option or mode. This is usually represented by an icon of a snowflake or the word “Cool” on the screen. Select this option to enable cooling mode.
3. Once you have selected the cooling mode, you will be prompted to set your desired temperature. Use the arrow buttons or touch screen to adjust the temperature to your liking.
4. Additionally, you may have other settings such as fan speed, schedule, and energy-saving features. Take some time to explore these options and customize them according to your preferences.
It’s worth mentioning that the specific steps and options may vary depending on the model and version of your Honeywell thermostat. Refer to the user manual or contact Honeywell customer support for detailed instructions if needed.
Resetting your Honeywell thermostat to cool involves performing a factory reset and then configuring the thermostat for cooling mode and desired settings. By following the steps outlined above, you should be able to reset and set up your thermostat successfully.
