SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES - ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS – OTHER APPLIANCES
Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Confirm that the pilot flame is on; it must be in
operation for the main gas valve to operate, if you have an electronic ignition system check the power source as well.
• Press the ON
button on the TS-3 to turn the system to ON manually. The main flame should come ON.
• Press the OFF
button on the TS-3 to turn the system to OFF manually. The main flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will
remain on if you are using a millivolt gas valve system).
• Press the SET
button on the TS-3 to change the system to THERMO. Hold the SET button to set the temperature on the TS-3 to a
temperature of a least 2
0
F (1
0
C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this manual setting, the
normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system flame will ignite. Set the SET temperature to at least 2
0
F (1
0
C) below the
room temperature and the system flame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it should continue to cycle to on and off
thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature changes, but only when the temperature differential
between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2
0
F (1
0
C). The 2
0
F differential is the factory setting.
GENERAL INFORMATION
BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of lithium button cell batteries in the TS-3 should be at least (1) season (8) months. Check and replace both batteries
annually.. The TS-3 should operate with as little as 2.4 volts of battery power, measuring at each of the 3-volt button cell batteries.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Should you encounter problems with your appliance system, the problem may be with the appliance itself or it could be with the TS-3
wired wall thermostat. Review the appliance manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made. Then
check the operation of the TS-3 in the following manner:
1. Be sure the TS/R-3’s batteries are properly installed and that the battery output is 2.4 volts on each battery or more. If one
battery is installed backward the wired wall thermostat will not operate.
