Carefully remove insert protecting switch bulbs.
Loosen two captive mounting screws, and separate
wallplate or subbase from back of thermostat base.
3 REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT
Remove cover of old thermostat. If the cover does
not snap off when pulled firmly from the bottom,
check for a screw that locks on the cover.
Before removing the old thermostat from the wall,
look at it carefully to locate the heat anticipator
adjustment mechanism. (See illustration to help you

SETTING LEVER
Disconnect wires from old thermostat, wallplate or
subbase. Tape each end and label with the letter of
the terminal designation to make reconnection easier. If
there are only two wires labeling is not necessary.
4 MOUNT WALLPLATE OR SUBBASE
IMPORTANT:
One or two extra wires?
If you are replacing a Honeywell Chronotherm
you may find one or two wires that go to the clock terminals on the Chrontherm
not allow them to touch, or you may damage your transformer. Disconnect the wires, and wrap them separately,
using electrical tape. Do not wrap them together. Place
the wires where they will not interfere with the operation of
the new thermostat. Record the colors and terminal
designation labels of the remaining wires.
If old thermostat has B or O terminals, this
thermostat cannot be used on your system.
EXCEPTION: The CT1802 Thermostat can be used
on a system with B or O terminals.

Note the tabs on the top inside edge of the thermostat
base. These fit the slots molded into the top of the
wallplate or subbase.
Hang the thermostat base on the wallplate or
subbase as shown in illustration.
Insert the two captive mounting screws located in
the bottom corners of the thermostat base (see
illustration); firmly tighten.
IMPORTANT:
Do not cycle heating system until step 7 is
completed.
7 SET HEAT ANTICIPATOR LEVER
The thermostat adjustable heat anticipator must be
correctly set to accurately control the on-time length
of the system. An incorrect setting can result in room
temperature swings or burn out the anticipator and void the
thermostat warranty.
Make sure you have the current draw (anticipator setting)
for your system. This is the number you wrote in the box in
Step 3. If you were unable to find the current draw for Step 3,
this information can be found printed on the primary control
at the furnace or boiler. The primary control is usually a gas
