Airxcel thermostat

What setting on the Airxcel thermostat do I need for the gas furnace to automatically come on when the temperature drops below 40 degrees. I have a heat pump a/c unit.

If the temperature you have the heat pump set falls 5 degrees because the heat pump cannot sustain it then the gas furnace will automatically kick on.

Thank you. Does the thermostat need to be on AC cool Auto?

If we are talking about heating, then the thermostat needs to be on "HEAT ELEC".
