SEE REVERSE FOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Your new digital thermostat has been designed to provide accurate control and display of room temper­ature. In addition, it also will display all relevant infor­mation pertaining to your system.
The clearly marked buttons and informative display make it extremely easy to understand and simple to use.
Please take a few moments to read the brief instruc­tions and familiarize yourself with the various func­tions in order to obtain maximum benefit from this truly unique electronic control.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The thermostat normally displays room temperature, mode of operation and whether cooling or heating is currently on. The two buttons on the front of the unit allow complete control of the equipment.
Raising or lowering the setpoint is as simple as push­ing a button. In addition, you may choose to display the temperature in °F or °C.
The thermostat also allows you to select continuous fan operation (useful when using an air cleaner) or have the fan come on with the equipment.
USER CONTROLS (Cont’d)
HEAT & COOL INDICATION ON DISPLAY
When the equipment is off, both flame and snowflake are on steadily. When the thermostat is calling for heat, the flame flickers and the snowflake goes off. When cooling, the snowflake flickers and the flame goes off.
LIMITED OVERRIDE
When the keyboard is locked (DIP switch #2 ON), the user may override the temperature setpoint for 1 hour by pressing either the ✞ or ✟ button. The range of temperature override is ±6°F or ±3°C from the programmed daytime setpoint.

FAN
$
The fan will come on automatically when the system is operating, but there is no indication of this on the display. To select continuous fan operation, press the FAN button and the display will show
$
. This is recommended for electronic air cleaners or con­tinuous ventilation requirements.
NOTE: For fan coil applications in which the O and B output terminals control valve position, DO NOT use continuous fan.
REMOTE SENSOR (OPTION) RS1 – RS2 – RS+V
The thermostat is designed to accept the electronic remote sensor, which will allow you to locate your thermostat in an area away from view. Indoor and outdoor sensors are available separately.
POWER FAILURES
Your thermostat employs the latest developments in solid state electronic technology.
One of the unique features of your thermostat is that no battery is required to maintain your selected set­points in the event of a power loss as the memory is unaffected by power failures of any duration.
When power is restored, the thermostat will continue operating as if the power had never been off.
TEMPERATURE ACCURACY
Full temperature accuracy will be realized only after the thermostat has been installed and powered for at least one hour.

TWO YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Your Research Products Corporation Aprilaire®Thermostat unit is expressly warranted for two (2) years from the date of installation to be free from defects. Research Products Corporation’s exclusive obligation under this war­ranty shall be to supply, without charge, a replacement for any thermo­stat which is found to be defective within a two (2) year period and which is returned no later than thirty (30) days after said two (2) year period by you to either your original supplier or to Research Products Corporation, Madison, Wisconsin, 53701, together with the model num­ber, manufacturing code number and installation date of the thermostat.
THIS WARRANTY SHALL NOT OBLIGATE RESEARCH PRODUCTS CORPO­RATION FOR ANY LABOR COSTS AND SHALL NOT APPLY TO DEFECTS IN WORKMANSHIP OR MATERIALS FURNISHED BY YOUR INSTALLER AS CON­TRASTED TO DEFECTS IN THE THERMOSTAT ITSELF. IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTIC­ULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE AFORESAID TWO (2) YEAR PERIOD. RESEARCH PRODUCTS CORPORATION’S LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OTHER THAN DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURIES, RESULTING FROM ANY BREACH OF THE AFORESAID IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE ABOVE LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS VOID IF DEFECT(S) RESULT FROM FAILURE TO HAVE THIS UNIT INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING CONTRACTOR.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LOCATION To ensure proper operation, the thermostat should be
mounted on an inside wall in a frequently occupied area of the building. In addition, its position must be at least 18" (46cm) from any outside wall, and approx­imately 5' (1.5m) above the floor in a location with freely circulating air of an average temperature.
BE SURE TO AVOID THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS:
- behind doors or in corners where freely circulating air is unavailable
- where direct sunlight or radiant heat from appli­ances might affect control operation
- on an outside wall
- adjacent to, or in line with, conditioned air dis­charge grilles, stairwells, or outside doors
- where its operation may be affected by steam or water pipes or warm air stacks in an adjacent parti­tion space, or by an unheated/uncooled area behind the thermostat
- where its operation will be affected by the supply air of an adjacent unit
- near sources of electrical interference such as arc­ing relay contacts
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION
1. Insert a flat blade screwdriver or coin 1/8" into the slot located in the bottom center of the thermostat case and twist 1/4 turn. When you feel or hear a click, grasp the case from the bottom two corners and sep­arate from the subbase as shown in the diagram at the right. Some models require more force than oth­ers when separating due to the number of terminals on the subbase.
2. Swing the thermostat out from the bottom.
3. Lift the thermostat up and off the subbase.
4. Place the rectangular opening in the subbase over the
equipment control wires protruding from the wall and, using the subbase as a template, mark the location of the two mounting holes (exact vertical mounting is necessary only for appearance).
5. Use the supplied anchors and screws for mounting on
drywall or plaster; drill two 3/16" (5mm) diameter holes at the marked locations; use a hammer to tap the nylon anchors in flush to the wall surface and fas­ten subbase using the supplied screws. (Do not over­tighten!)
6. Connect the wires from your system to the thermostat
terminals as shown in the wiring diagrams. Carefully dress the wires so that any excess is pushed back into the wall cavity or junction box. Ensure that the wires are flush to the plastic subbase. The access hole should be sealed or stuffed to prevent drafts from affecting the thermostat.
7. Before the thermostat is reinstalled on the subbase, install the optional indoor remote sensor (model
8002), if used. Refer to the installation instructions supplied with the model 8002.
REPLACING THE THERMOSTAT
ON THE SUBBASE
1. Position the thermostat on the hinged tabs located at
the top of the subbase.
2. Gently swing the thermostat down and press on the
bottom center edge until it snaps in place.
