How can I override the default thermostat settings?

Hi,

To operate it manually, you'll need to review the steps in the manual to turn off the automated settings and update the default temperature as well.

Thank you.

Did you try the recessed software reset button? Its a small hole above the button labeled NEXT A straightened paper clip works best to push the button. It will switch it back to the default settings and so you'll need to reprogram the thermostat.

are you running a schedule? try the permanent hold!!

What is your ambient temperature???????Your unit has a certain rating but if the ambient is higher than normal specs, then the cooling will be affected accordingly. If it 130 out side do you think your AC will bring the temps down to 78? No way!

More than likely, the thermostat on the unit is going bad. If the coils haven't been cleaned recently, then I suggest that you unplug the unit, clean it well and then cycle it back on. If it continues, then the thermostat that's located within the unit is going bad. Please refer to the owners manual for proper service and maintenance for your unit. https://www.appliancefactoryparts.com/content/pdfs/140265-1.pdf

Read your maunual. It might be normal. A 4 degree split in your set back heateing control is about normal. It is that way so you can turn your unit on and never really need to touch it again. When the temp goes up, cooling goes on. When the temp goes down, heating comes on.

What's the model number of the tstat? Tell me how you override the schedule?

may need charged a out of adjustment can cost lots is it old unit is outdoor temp. very hot may have trouble catching up to setpoint.on a 95 degree day good luck.

Verify 24 volts at the low voltage transformer inside the air handler. If it is OK, jump out the red/green and yellow thermostat wires. If everything comes on, replace the thermostat.

Ours does this too; it says its 34 degrees but really its 53-58 degrees. . . The compressor coolant part of the machine freezes and then it can't circulate the cold air to cool the fridge. You have to unplug it for at least 24 hours to let it thaw, or you can take out the lower drawers and shelves, unscrew and remove the lower back pannel (from the inside of the fridge). We use a blow dryer to thaw out the ice block that formed on the unit. It goes faster if it is unplugged, this fridge is horrible we lost hundreds of dollars in groceries before we figured out the problem.
