There are about 2°F (1°C) between stages so that the
second stage makes only when the first stage cannot
handle the load. This is the
LEDs (light emitting diodes) are included on your subbase.
Refer to the list below for specific meaning.
The CHECK LED lights when something needs to be
checked or done to maintain efficient operation of the
system. See your heating system instructions for the
specific meaning.
The SYSTEM LED lights when the system is calling for
heating or cooling.
The AUX. HT. LED lights when the auxiliary heat (second
stage) is operating. Auxiliary heat operates when the heat
pump alone cannot handle the load.
The EM. HT. LED lights when the system switch is placed
in the EM. HT. position. Emergency heat is operating; in
most systems, the compressor has failed and the heat
pump is not operating.
LEDs are not field replaceable or addable.

T874G,R MULTISTAGE HEAT PUMP THERMOSTATS AND Q674F,J,L SUBBASES
쐃 If you must mount the subbase on a vertical outlet
CAUTION
1. Disconnect power supply to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage.
2. Run wires as close as possible to the
subbase. To prevent interference with the
thermostat linkage, keep wire length to a
minimum. Push excess wire back into the hole
and plug the hole to prevent drafts from
affecting the thermostat operation.
3. Do not overtighten the thermostat captive
mounting screws because damage to the
subbase threads can result.
4. Do not short across coil terminals on relay;
this can burn out the heat anticipator.
Location
Install the thermostat about 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in
an area with good circulation at room temperature.
Do not install the thermostat where it can be affected by:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.

Fig. 1. The assembly includes an adapter ring, two
screws, and a cover plate to cover marks on the
wall. Install the ring and cover plate on the vertical
outlet box.
For a wall installation, hold the subbase in position and
mark holes for the anchors. See Fig. 2. Obtain wall
anchors locally. Take care that the wires do not fall back
into the wall opening. Set aside the subbase. Drill four
3/16 in. (5 mm) holes and gently tap anchors into the
holes until flush with the wall.

Wiring the Subbase
All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and
ordinances. Follow the equipment manufacturer wiring
instructions when available. To wire the subbase, proceed
as follows:
쐃 Connect system wires to the subbase. See Fig. 3
through 11. A letter code is located near each
terminal for identification. The terminal barrier
permits straight or conventional wraparound wiring
connection (Fig. 13).
쐇 Firmly tighten each terminal screw.
쐋 Fit wires as close as possible to the subbase. Push
excess wire back into the hole.
쐏 Plug the hole with nonflammable insulation to
prevent drafts from affecting the thermostat.

SETTING
Temperature Setting
The T874R has one setpoint lever that controls both
heating and cooling. The T874G has one lever that
controls heating and another lever that controls cooling.
Move the setpoint lever(s) to the desired control
position(s).
Subbase Setting
System switching positions control thermostat operation as
follows:
EM. HT.: Emergency heating system is energized. Cooling
system is off. Compressor is de-energized.
HEAT: Heating system is controlled by the thermostat.
Cooling system is off.
OFF: Both the heating and cooling systems are off.
COOL: Cooling system is controlled by the thermostat.
Heating system is off.
AUTO: Thermostat automatically changes between heat
and cool modes depending on indoor temperature.
Fan switching positions control fan operation as follows:
ON: Fan operates continuously.
AUTO: Fan operates with equipment as controlled by the
thermostat.
To switch positions, use your thumb and index finger to
slide the lever to the desired position. The switch lever
must be set directly over the desired function indicator
mark for proper circuit operation.
Cooling
CAUTION
Do not operate cooling if outdoor temperature is
below 50°F (10°C). Refer to manufacturer
recommendations.
Move the system switch on the subbase to COOL. Move
the setpoint lever (cooling lever on T874G) on the thermostat about 10°F (6°C) below the room temperature.
Cooling and fan should start. Move the lever (cooling lever
on T874G) about 10°F (6°C) above the room temperature.
Cooling and fan should stop.
Emergency Heat
Move the system switch on the subbase to EM. HT. Move
the setpoint lever (heating lever on T874G) about 10°F
(6°C) above the room temperature. The electric strip
heater(s) should come on. Move the lever (heating lever
on T874G) about 10°F (6°C) below the room temperature.
The electric strip heater should de-energize.
Fan
Move the subbase system switch to OFF, and the fan
switch to ON. The fan should run continuously. When the
fan switch is in the AUTO position, fan operation is
controlled by the heating or cooling system.
Outdoor Reset Thermistor
Some systems are supplied with a Honeywell C815A1005
Thermistor for outdoor mounting. The thermistor must be
used; if not, thermostat performance will deviate radically
from proper operation.
The proper thermistor operation must be verified to assure
the correct operation of the thermostat. Check thermistor
operation as follows:
쐃 Disconnect the T wire on the subbase.
쐇 Use an ohmmeter to measure resistance between
the T wire and the transformer secondary common
or C terminal.
쐋 Take outdoor temperature at thermistor location
and find the correct thermistor resistance on chart
in Fig. 15.
쐏 If the resistance measured in step 2 and the
calculated resistance in step 3 vary by more than
15 percent, the thermistor requires replacement.
Contact the installation dealer for an outdoor
thermistor replacement.
CHECKOUT
Heating
Move the system switch on the subbase to HEAT and the
fan switch to AUTO. Move the setpoint lever (heating lever
on T874G) on the thermostat about 10°F (6°C) above the
room temperature. Heating and fan should start if there is
no time delay or outdoor temperature limiting system.
Move the lever (heating lever on T874G) about 10°F (6°C)
below the room temperature. Heating and fan should shut
off.
CALIBRATION
Thermostat
These thermostats are accurately calibrated at the factory.
They do not have provision for field calibration.
Thermometer
The thermometer in your thermostat has been accurately
calibrated at the factory. The thermometer should only
need adjustment if it has been dropped or jarred.

69-0268—11
T874G,R MULTISTAGE HEAT PUMP THERMOSTATS AND Q674F,J,L SUBBASES
If the setpoint lever setting and the thermometer reading
do not agree, follow the procedure below.
쐃 Remove thermostat cover by pulling the bottom
edge of the cover outward and away from the base
until it clears the retaining posts.
쐇 Set the cover on a table near an accurate
thermometer.
쐋 After allowing five or ten minutes for stabilization,
compare the readings. If they are the same, replace
cover and put system into operation. If they are
different, recalibrate the thermostat thermometer;
see step 4.
