The minimum off-timer operates in cooling on
the T8000C and T8001C, and in first stage
heating or cooling on the T8011R (heat pump
model) and T8024C (multistage model). A
flashing flame or or snowflake indicates the
minimum off-time is in effect.
Minimum Off-Timing
The thermostat minimum off-timer assures that
the compressor does not come on again for at
least five minutes after it turns off. The minimum
off-timer is triggered when the compressor turns
off and when the SYSTEM switch position is
changed. If the compressor turns off when the
setpoint is changed, the minimum off-timer is
triggered. Power interruption and power
restoration also trigger the minimum off-timer.
