Vivint Element Operation Guide
Product Overview
Z-Wave and Thermostat Programs
The Thermostat must be connected to a Z-Wave network in order to operate the device
remotely through your panel or app. Use your Z-Wave application to adjust the heating
and cooling programs that the Thermostat uses to run your system. You can temporarily
override target temperatures and change system modes from the thermostat, but you
must use the Z-Wave application to make permanent changes to programs.

Compressor Protection

The Thermostat has a minimum cycle time of five (5) minutes to protect your compressor
from excessive wear from responding to thermostat changes. The Home screen shows
the message "Cycle Delay". The compressor will not come on until the five-minute delay
is over.

The Vivint SmartHome ELEMENT thermostat does not provide specific instructions for manually turning on the furnace. However, you can control the thermostat settings through the device itself, the Vivint Smart Home app, or voice commands with Alexa. To ensure the furnace operates correctly, make sure the thermostat is properly installed, connected to the Z-Wave network, and configured for your HVAC system. If the furnace does not turn on, check the power supply, wiring, and thermostat settings.
