Programming your Smart ThermostatDepending on the time of day, and the day of the week, you need exibility for the heating and cooling settings in your home.For example, if there’s no one in the house during the workday you might want to let the temperature go up in the summer, to reduce energy used by the air conditioning system, and go down in the winter, to reduce energy used by the furnace. Your Smart Thermostat is exible – you can program four dierent time periods per day, seven days a week. Each period is representing by a unique icon. These icons can be found on various screen on the Smart Thermostat as well as on your personalized web portal.Awake- this represents the period when you are awake. The start time of this period is typically when you get up in the morning. Work- this represents the period when you are at work and the home is not occupied. The start time of this period is typically when you leave to go to work. Home- this represents the period when you are home. The start time of this period is typically when you get home from work in the evening. Sleep- this represent the period when you are sleeping.The start time of this period is when you go to bed at night.We call it a Smart Thermostat because it learns how your home and heating and cooling equipment perform. This means you can be sure that your home is at the temperature you want, when you want it, without wasting energy.And when your schedule changes, you can quickly and easily up-date the thermostat setting directly on the device itself or online through your personalized web portal.Your Smart Thermostat comes pre-programmed with EnergyStar recommended settings. These settings can save you up to 33% on your heating and cooling energy costs when compared to a non-programmable thermostat. If your preferences are dierent than the recommended settings, you can easily adjust the time periods and temperatures of your system. There are two ways to program the Smart Thermostat:Use the Wizard that guides you through the stepsUse the more advanced Editor feature.Using the Program WizardThe Smart Thermostat Wizard takes you step-by-step through a series of questions about when your awake,, go to work, come homeand go to sleep. You’ll then set appropriate temperatures for each of those time periods.Note: If your Smart Thermostat is in Hold mode, youmust press Resume in order to get to the wizard.  Note: The Smart Thermostat will not ask you what temperature you want in your home during work hours. Instead, it automatically sets this value to minimize your energy consumption, while ensuring the room temperature reaches the desired tempera-ture when you come home. If you prefer to set this temperature manually, use the Editor (see page XX). If you want to change anything, you can either run the Wizard again, or press Editor to make specic changes (see Using the Editor below).Using the EditorThe second way to edit your Smart Thermostat’s program is to use the Editor. This method is more advanced than the Wizard  you can edit specic times  and temperatures, as well as furnace fan settings for each day of the week.Note: The Heat Set temperature turns the furnace on and the Cool Set temperature turns the air condition-er on. Setting a lower Heat temperature saves energy in the winter, and setting a higher Cool temperature saves energy in the summer. You can also program the fan setting for both Heat mode and Cool mode.Select ON to run the fan continuously.Select Auto to run the fan only when the heating, cooling or ventilation equipment is running or to satisfy the minimum fan on time as programmed by your technician during the installation. Note: Humidity levels are not included as a program-mable option, even if a humidier or dehumidier is installed and controlled by the Smart Thermostat. To use  the Wizard:From the Home Screen, press Program.Press Wizard in the upper right corner of the screen.Answer each Wizard question to best t your daily rountine.Press Next to go to the next question.When the congratulations screen appears press Done.15 | 16To use  the Editor:From the Home Screen, press Program.Press Editor in the upper left corner of the screen.Select the days you wishto adjust ( selecting more than one day will change settings for all selectd) and press Next.Adjust temperatue bypressing the heat or cool buttons on the righthand side.When the congratulations screen appears press Done.
17 | 18From time to time your ecobee system will display an alert. For example, the alert might be a reminder to change the furnace lter, or perform regular maintenance. As well, if you have a ood sensor installed in your house, the system can alert you when water is detected, potentially sav-ing you thousands of dollars from damage due to ooding. If you have enabled the Internet connection to your Smart Thermostat, these alerts can also be sent to you via e-mail.When an alert displays, you can dismiss it or ask to be reminded again later.If you receive a furnace lter alert, for example, and choose Remind me later, the alert will clear and then display again 24 hours later.If you choose Dismiss when the alert displays, it will not redisplay until the next time period for a lter change.If your heating and cooling technician provided contact information during installation (such as company name and phone number), the alert will display this information.
