New text for UHS owner manual page 11: TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT This pool heater is equipped with a digital thermostat which allows the user to select the desired water temperature. The heater will then function automatically to maintain the desired temperature. The heater has 3 modes of operation:

1. STANDBY: in this mode, the heater will not function to heat the water. 2. SPA: in this mode, the heater will automatically function to maintain the water

temperature setting for SPA mode. 3. POOL: in this mode, the heater will automatically function to maintain the water

temperature setting for POOL mode. Use the MODE button to change modes. The indicator lights will illuminate to show which mode the heater is currently in. Each mode has its own temperature setting, allowing the user to have 2 individual pre-set temperature settings. To adjust the temperature while in SPA or POOL mode, use the UP and DOWN buttons. The numeric display will flash to indicate the temperature setting is being displayed / adjusted. When the numeric display is not flashing, the actual water temperature is being displayed. The temperature settings for both SPA and POOL modes are initially set at the factory to 65°F. The minimum allowed settings for SPA and POOL modes are both 65°F. The maximum allowed settings for SPA and POOL modes are adjustable up to 104°F using the temperature lockout feature (see below). After selecting SPA or POOL mode or adjusting the temperature setting, it is normal for the heater to delay up to 10 seconds before the heater starts operating. This delay is an internal self-test of the heater. On occasion, the numeric display may show a diagnostic error code; refer to list of diagnostic error codes in Figure 4. Pressing the MODE button to cycle to STANDBY and back to SPA or POOL will clear a diagnostic error code. When clearing a

TEMPERATURE LOCK-OUT The digital thermostat in this pool heater allows the user to lock the maximum temperature setting allowed. This feature is useful for preventing unauthorized users from manually adjusting the temperature settings higher than desired. On a new heater, the maximum allowed temperature lock settings are initially set at the factory to 90°F for POOL mode, and 104°F for SPA mode. To adjust these settings, use the following procedure:

1. Use the MODE button to put the heater in STANDBY mode. 2. Press and hold both the UP and DOWN buttons at the same time. 3. After 3 seconds, the thermostat enters maximum temperature lock adjustment mode. 4. The SPA indicator light illuminates and the numeric display shows the current SPA mode

maximum temperature lock setting. Both the SPA indicator light and the numeric display flashes rapidly when in adjustment mode.

5. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to set the desired maximum temperature lock setting. When finished, press the MODE button.

6. The POOL indicator light illuminates and the numeric display shows the current POOL mode maximum temperature lock setting. Both the POOL indicator light and the numeric display flashes rapidly when in adjustment mode.

7. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to set the desired maximum temperature lock. When finished, press the MODE button.

8. The heater will return to STANDBY mode.
