INSTALLATION
This thermostat has been designed to control a RESISTIVE load
not exceeding 3500 W @ 240 VAC or 1750 W @ 120 VAC, such as
electric baseboards, convectors, radiant ceilings, floor heating systems, etc.
It is not compatible with a low voltage controller used by a central heating system or systems using a contactor or a relay
whose current is under 2 A.
TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE
MAIN POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Installation should be carried out by an electrician.
This thermostat is designed to be used with a self-protected heating system equipped with linear limit control
and circuit breaker.
For a new installation, choose a location about 5 ft. (1.5 m)
above the floor, facing the heating system and on an inside
wall.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (top of staircase, air
outlet), dead air spots (behind a door), direct sunlight or concealed chimneys or stove pipes.
All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical
code.
Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when
connecting with aluminum conductors.
The wires are not polarized, therefore the connections can be
made on either terminal.

2) Secure the thermostat
Time display
Push the excess wire into
the electrical box to prevent
interference with the thermostat.
Secure the base to the electrical
box using the provided screws.
The base can be secured on the
left or right hand side of the electrical box.
3) Complete the installation
Once the thermostat is configured and installed, return power to
heating system.
Keep the thermostat's air vents clean and free from obstructions.
FIRST POWER ON
To view the ambient temperature,
peel the lower-right section of the
sticker and remove it from the display.
When you first power on the
thermostat, the display
indicates: 0:00, MO (Monday), the
ambient temperature and the MANual
mode is selected (framed). The
default setpoint is preset to 20°C.
To change the time display format from 12 to
24 hours and vice-versa:
Press and hold ; do not release.
Reset the thermostat using a pointed object
(e.g. paperclip).
Release the button.
TO RESET
THE
THERMOSTAT
Temperature control type
The TH104 is factory-set to use the proportional temperature control type (15-second cycles).
Since this temperature control type uses a fast commutation rate, it
is not compatible with fan-equipped systems. Also, it can also cause
light flickering, especially in rural regions.
If you have a fan-equipped system, use the conventional temperature control type (15-minute cycles). To change the type:
Press and maintain , do not release.
Reset the thermostat using a pointed object (e.g. paperclip).
Release the button.
Following the change, the FAN indicator is displayed on the screen.
To revert to proportional control, repeat above steps.
ADJUSTTHETIMEANDDAY
Protected memory
During a power failure, all programs are protected. The thermostat
display remains on for approximately 15 minutes after which the LP
indicator is displayed (low power). Only the time must be reset if the
power failure exceeds 6 hours. The thermostat will automatically
return to the previous mode when power returns.
OPTIONS SELECTION
The TH104 offers the following options:
Temperature display °C °F
Time display 24 h 12 h
Temperature control
Highlighted options are factory pre-set. If these options fit your
requirements, go to the next menu.
Temperature display
To change the temperature display from °C to °F and vice-versa:

NOTE: You should select the options before you adjust the clock
and day settings because using the reset button when selecting
options will reset the clock.

OPERATING MODES
The TH104 has three operating modes:
AUTOmatic
This mode automatically runs your programs.
Press MODE until AUTO is outlined. The current
program number is displayed above the AUTO icon.
To temporarily bypass the current program, simply
select the desired temperature using the temperature adjustment buttons. The new setpoint will be
maintained until the beginning of the next program.
MANual
Maintains a constant temperature setpoint.
Press MODE until MAN is outlined and select the
desired temperature using the temperature adjustment buttons.
2/4 400-104-000-A
ECONO
This mode automatically runs the programs of the
Econo schedule.
Press MODE until ECONO is outlined.
The current program number is displayed above the
ECONO icon.
AUTOMATIC SCHEDULE
The TH104 schedule offers 4 programs per day for the weekdays
and 4 programs per day for the weekend. There are no preset programs. The schedule maintains the setpoint associated to a program until the beginning of the next one.
For maximum energy savings, the following schedule is recommended:
Programs Time Setpoint
Monday to Friday (same programs for all days of the week)
1 Morning 6:00 21°C
2 Day 8:00 17°C
3 Evening 17:00 21°C
4 Night 23:00 17°C
Saturday and Sunday (same programs for the weekend)
1 Morning 6:00 21°C
ECONO SCHEDULE
Ideal for cottages, chalets or weekend residences, this schedule
enables the user to enter 2 settings.
The first setting lets the user enter a time (i.e. shortly before
expected arrival) at which the thermostat commands the heating
system to warm to comfort setpoint. The second setting commands
a temperature decrease.
Programs Day Time Setpoint
1 Arrival (start heating) Friday 3:00 p.m. 21°C
2 End of heating period Friday 8:00 p.m. 15°C
Using the Econo Mode
At your arrival, switch to Automatic mode. The thermostat will run
your programs of the automatic schedule, keeping a comfortable
temperature during the day and decrease the temperature during
the night.
When you leave, switch to Econo mode. The thermostat will automatically maintain the setpoint of the last program (e.g. 2) until the
beginning of the next program.
Programming the Econo Mode
Before you start programming your thermostat, press MODE
until ECONO is selected (outlined).

ABOUT TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The TH104 works differently than conventional electromechanical
thermostats which can have a temperature differential up to 4°C
and 5°C. The TH104 has a temperature differential of ± 0.15°C from
the setpoint. This slight oscillation eliminates the discomfort often
found with conventional electromechanic thermostats.
For each cycle, the proportional controller determines the “On”
operating time required by the heating system to maintain the setpoint temperature. The following table displays the percentage of
the “On” operating time for the heating cycle:
1 to 25% 26 to 50% 51 to 75% 76 to 100%
If you are using the conventional control (fan-forced heater), the
screen will show the FAN indicator as well as all flame icons ( )
when the system is activated. In this case, the thermostat differential is ± 0.5°C from the setpoint.
NOTE: The temperature display resolution is 1°C, but the tempera-
ture is internally controlled at 0.01°C.
