Installation Instructions for the Trained Service Technician.
Preparation
Recycling Notice
Check thermostat and subbase (if used) suitability for the
heating, cooling, or heating/cooling system. Refer to Table 1.
Assemble tools required: flat bladed screwdriver, hand or
power drill with 3/16-in. drill bit, wire cutter/stripper or
sharp knife, bubble level or plumb bob and line.
Assure power is off to the heating, cooling, or heating/
cooling system at the main fuse panel. Most buildings have
a separate switch box or circuit breaker for disconnecting
power to the heating and cooling (if applicable) equipment.
This thermostat is compatible with most heating, cooling,
or heating/cooling systems. Refer to Table 1 for thermostat
and system compatibility information.

If thermostat is not compatible with the system being controlled, the system will not operate. No hazard exists. The thermostat will not be damaged unless it is used to directly control a line voltage system. For proper system operation, a Honeywell
R841 or R8239D1015 Isolating Relay must be added to the thermostat control circuit.

Consult manufacturer for installation requirements.
• The R8239D1015 Isolating Relay or R841 Silent Switching Center must be
installed in the thermostat control circuit.
• Compatible. Assure that 24V control transformer common is accessible for
connection to thermostat cable conductor and power to the transformer is not
regularly interrupted by high temperature or limit operation.

This control contains mercury in a sealed tube. Do not
place control in the trash at the end of its useful life.
If this control is replacing a control that contains mercury
in a sealed tube, do not place your old control in the trash.
Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of this
control, or of an old control containing mercury in a sealed
tube.
If you have questions, call Honeywell Inc. at 1-800468-1502.
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could cause a hazardous condition.
2. Installer must be a trained experienced service technician.
3. After installation is complete, check out product op-
eration as provided in these instructions.
IMPORTANT: An incorrectly leveled subbase will cause
the temperature control to deviate from setpoint. It is
not a calibration problem.

CAUTION
1. Disconnect power supply to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage.
2. To prevent interference with the thermostat linkage, keep wire length to a minimum and run
wires as close as possible to the subbase.
3. Do not overtighten thermostat captive mounting screws because damage to subbase threads
can result.
4. Do not short across coil terminals on relay. This
can burn out the thermostat heat anticipator.
LOCATION
Locate thermostat about 5 ft [1.5m] above the floor in an
area with good air circulation at average temperature.
Do not mount the thermostat where it may be affected by:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from the sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.
Run wires from the heating, cooling, or heating/cooling
equipment to the new thermostat location.
IMPORTANT: This control requires an additional con-
ductor to the control transformer common (e.g., a
typical 2-wire heating system requires three wires be
pulled, a 4-wire heating/cooling requires five wires).
UNPACK THERMOSTAT
Handle your new thermostat carefully; rough handling
may interfere with its accuracy. Before unpacking, refer to
Fig. 1.
Remove and discard the shipping wrap.
IMPORTANT: Save package of screws and instructions
for the homeowner.
Remove the thermostat cover by lifting from the bottom.
Set aside cover until needed later.
Carefully remove the material protecting the mercury
switch bulb.
Loosen two captive mounting screws, and separate wallplate (if provided) from back of thermostat base.
MOUNT WALLPLATE OR SUBBASE
Wall Mounting (Fig. 2)
Hold the wallplate or subbase in position on wall (Fig. 2).
Mark holes on the wall for anchors. Use spirit level to
make sure the wallplate or subbase is level.

Loosely fasten the wallplate or subbase to the wall with
the three screws. Do not completely tighten the screws.
Carefully level the wallplate or subbase (Fig. 3), and
firmly tighten the screws.
