Installation

Installation of the Coiiwsei RTH702 thermostat is designed to be straightforward. Follow these steps carefully.

1. Power Off HVAC System

Before beginning any wiring, ensure the power to your heating and cooling system is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or damage to the equipment.

2. Remove Old Thermostat

Carefully remove your old thermostat from its wall plate. Take a picture of the existing wiring connections for reference. Use the provided wiring labels to mark each wire as you disconnect it from the old thermostat's terminals. This will help ensure correct re-connection to the new thermostat.

3. Mount New Wall Plate

Position the new wall plate on the wall where the old thermostat was located. Use the included screws and wall anchors to secure it. Ensure the plate is level for aesthetic and functional reasons.

4. Connect Wires

Connect the labeled wires to the corresponding terminals on the new thermostat's wall plate. Refer to the wiring diagram below. Ensure each wire is securely fastened.

Figure 5: Thermostat Wiring Terminals

This image illustrates the wiring terminals on the thermostat's backplate. It shows labeled terminals for C (Common 24VAC), O (Reverse Valve Cool), B (Reverse Valve Heat), W (Heat Relay Stage 1), W2 (Heat Relay Stage 2), RH (24VAC System Power Supply), RC (Cool = RC to Y Fan), G (Fan), Y (Cool Relay Stage 1), and Y2 (Cool Relay Stage 2). Instructions are provided to remove the metal jumper wire if both RH and RC wires are present, and a note about connecting 4 wires for optimal use, or 2 wires with batteries.

5. Set Electric or Gas Switch

On the back of the thermostat unit, locate the small switch for Electric/Gas furnace selection. Set the switch to "ELEC" if you have an electric furnace, or "GAS" if you have a gas or oil furnace.

This image shows a close-up of the internal components of the thermostat, specifically highlighting a small toggle switch labeled "ELEC" and "GAS". This switch is used to configure the thermostat for either electric or gas furnace systems.

6. Install Batteries

Open the front-load battery compartment and insert 2x AA alkaline batteries (not supplied), observing the correct polarity. The batteries provide a backup power source if a C-wire is not available, maintaining settings during power outages.

7. Attach Thermostat to Wall Plate

Align the thermostat unit with the mounted wall plate and gently push until it snaps securely into place.

8. Restore Power

Turn the power back on to your HVAC system at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

Operating Instructions

The Coiiwsei RTH702 is a non-programmable thermostat designed for simple and direct control.

1. Setting Temperature

  • Use the large Up (▲) and Down (▼) arrow buttons on the right side of the thermostat to adjust the desired set temperature.
  • The display will show both the current room temperature and the set temperature.
  • The temperature display range is 32°F to 99°F (0°C to 40°C).

2. Selecting System Mode

  • Slide the SYSTEM switch to select the desired operating mode:
    • COOL: Activates the cooling system.
    • OFF: Turns off both heating and cooling systems.
    • HEAT: Activates the heating system.

    • ON: The fan runs continuously, regardless of whether the heating or cooling system is active.
    • AUTO: The fan runs only when the heating or cooling system is actively operating.

4. Advanced Settings (User-Configurable)

  • Adjustable Temperature Differential (Swing): This feature allows you to set the temperature range before the system turns on or off, optimizing energy use and extending system life. Refer to the full manual for detailed adjustment procedures.
  • Temperature Display Calibration: If you believe the displayed temperature is inaccurate, it can be calibrated. Consult the full manual for calibration steps.
  • °C/°F Unit Conversion: The thermostat supports switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature units.
  • Compressor Delay Protection: This feature protects your compressor from short cycling. It can be selected ON or OFF based on your preference and system requirements.

Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Coiiwsei RTH702 thermostat, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  • Battery Replacement: Replace the 2x AA alkaline batteries annually, or when the low battery indicator appears on the display.
  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the thermostat's exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Regular Checks: Periodically verify that the thermostat is operating correctly and maintaining desired temperatures.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Coiiwsei RTH702 thermostat, try the following steps:

  • No Display/Blank Screen: Check if the batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace batteries if necessary. Ensure the HVAC system power is on.
  • Incorrect Temperature Reading: Verify the thermostat is not exposed to direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources. Consider using the temperature display calibration feature if needed (refer to advanced settings).
  • System Not Responding: Check the SYSTEM switch is set to COOL or HEAT, not OFF. Ensure the FAN switch is set to AUTO or ON. Verify the HVAC system has power.
  • System Short Cycling: Ensure compressor delay protection is enabled in advanced settings.
