Common Questions
20 totalWhat type of heating/cooling system is the TH3210D designed for?
The TH3210D is designed exclusively for 2 Heat/1 Cool heat pump systems. It is not compatible with conventional gas, oil, or electric heating systems — those applications require the TH3110D model instead. (Page 1)
How do I enter the installer setup mode to configure the thermostat?
Press and hold both the up (s) and down (t) buttons simultaneously until the display changes. From there, press the t button to change settings, press s to advance to the next function, and press and hold both buttons together to exit and save all settings. (Page 6)
What does it mean when 'Cool On' or 'Heat On' is flashing on the display?
A flashing 'Cool On' or 'Heat On' message indicates the compressor protection feature is active and the compressor is waiting before restarting. This delay is controlled by Setup Function 15 and is designed to prevent equipment damage from rapid compressor cycling. (Page 8)
How do I change the temperature display from Fahrenheit to Celsius?
Enter the installer setup mode and navigate to Setup Function 14. Set it to '0' for Fahrenheit (factory default) or '1' for Celsius. (Page 6)
What wire gauge should I use when wiring the thermostat?
Use 18- to 22-gauge thermostat wire for all connections. Shielded cable is not required. (Page 4)
What are the temperature range specifications for heating and cooling on the TH3210D?
The heating temperature range is 40°F to 90°F (4.5°C to 32°C), and the cooling range is 50°F to 99°F (10°C to 37°C). The thermostat is rated for an operating ambient temperature of 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 48.9°C) and an operating relative humidity of 5% to 90% non-condensing. (Page 8)

Message flashes until safe restart time has elapsed
This feature helps prevent damage to the compressor.
Damage can occur if the compressor is restarted too soon after shutdown.This feature forces the compressor to wait for a few minutes before restarting.
During the wait time,the message Cool On or Heat On will flash on the display.When the safe wait time has elapsed,the message stops flashing and the compressor turns on.
In case of difficulty
If you have difficulty with your thermostat, please try the suggestions below. Most problems can be corrected quickly and easily.
Display is blank • Check circuit breaker and reset if necessary.
Temperature settings do not change
Make sure heating and cooling temperatures are set to acceptable ranges:
Heating system does not respond (“Heat On” appears on screen)
Cooling system does not respond (“Cool On” appears on screen)
“Cool On” or “Heat On” is flashing
• Compressor protection timeout is engaged. Wait 5 minutes for the system to restart safely, without damage to the compressor.
“Heat On” is not displayed
• Set the System switch to Heat, and set the temperature level above the current room temperature.
“Cool On” is not displayed
• Set the System switch to Cool, and set the temperature level below the current room temperature.
