Default New BT Cruiser 5255 furnace question

Can anyone tell me how to turn my RV furnace on? The thermostat says OFF. The power button/icon on the thermostat doesn't do anything. They gave me a furnace installation manual but no user manual. This is a 2021 BT Cruiser 5255. Thank you very much!

Assuming that you have the Dometic CT digital thermostat, you have to tap, not push, but tap the power/mode button multiple times to scroll through the modes. Tap once to activate or wake up the thermostat; tap again to enter fan mode - tap the up or down arrows to change the fan mode (Auto should be chosen for most applications); tap the power/mode button again to enter Air Conditioning mode - tap the arrows to set the desired temperature; tap the power/mode again to enter heat/furnace mode - tap the arrows to set the desired temperature; tap the power/mode one last time to turn it back to off.

This will work if you have the Dometic CT digital thermostat. Search this online for a downloadable manual. Here is a YouTube video of one being used. His may or may not have the same functions as yours but it should point you in the right direction for use. https://youtu.be/xrdBTnO0Bd4

If you don't have this model, then you'll have to share what it says or what it looks like for us to help you further. Good luck.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! That was exactly what I needed to know, and the video was super helpful! I was pushing instead of tapping. It took a few tries but now I've got it down, and am much much warmer!!! (Traveling across North Dakota at the moment...it's a bit chilly at night!) Thanks for your fast and expert reply!
