I tried replacing the batteries twice. The first time the thermostat worked
fine for a couple hours but after that it shuts off and says 'lo bat'. I
referred to the users manual and got nothing.

Thanks, people.



Are the contacts clean in the thermostat? Where the batteries go, that is.
Clean them with a pencil eraser. Have you checked the batteries on a meter?
