Awkward Heat - A/C issue

So we live in NY and are headed to FW in 12 days so of course we need to get the RV open. I checked everything and all is well except for the A/C.

We use a digital Dometic 3 step thermostat. "Fan" runs air just through the A/C. "Cool" runs the A/C. But when I turn on "Heat", the furnace and the A/C come on now. This has never happened before and we used the furnace several times last fall.

Any ideas? I dont know where to start. Maybe replace the thermostat?

If he does a RESET, he will still have the same problem. As other posters have told him, PUT the Fan in AUTO. That is what is in the owners manual for this tstat model. Doug

Is that the square single zone thermostat?

Reset:

A system initialization will need to be performed by the installer
after the system is installed.
โ€ข Make sure the Single Zone LCD thermostat is in the Off condition.
โ€ข Press the โ€œ+โ€ button and, while holding it, also press and hold
the On/Off Mode button for three seconds. LCD will show - - . Press the On/Off Mode button again to turn system off.
This completes the initialization.

Set the fan to auto, then set to heat.
