CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS:

• This thermostat requires batteries to operate and failure or sub-standard performance of the batteries may impair or prevent the correct operation of

the thermostat. Use Duracell

or Energizer®alkaline batteries ONLY for all LUXPRO thermostats requiring batteries. BE SURE TO CHANGE THE BATTERIES AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR, or whenever you see the LO BATT indication on the screen. Failure to follow these battery instructions could result in property damage and/or personal injury.

• The electrical rating for this thermostat is 1.5 Amps per terminal, with a maximum total load of 3.0A for all terminals combined.

• The thermostat contains parts that may wear out through use and are susceptible to failure if over-loaded or used in a manner other than as indicated in the documentation.

• Check unoccupied residences regularly to ensure that all systems are operating properly.

• Check any heating/air-conditioning system including this product before operation and at regular intervals.

• Electrical interference, static electricity, failure or substandard performance of batteries, wiring defects in the installation and/or characteristics of the connected HVAC devices may prevent the system from regulating heating and cooling as anticipated.

• The thermostat is a sensitive device and dropping the product can cause damage to critical components. If the product is dropped or shaken violently during transport or installation then it should be replaced immediately.

• Persons with physical or mental limitations may not be able to promptly respond to a malfunction of the heating/air-conditioning system.

• All residents should be made aware of the potential in any system for malfunctions that could cause continuous heating or cooling and should be familiar with the operation and location of the heating/cooling appliance on/off switch.

• Read the instruction manual completely before installing the thermostat. You should consult a qualified HVAC technician or an electrician if you do not fully understand the installation instructions.

TOOLS YOU MAY NEED:

MOUNTING LOCATION:

On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in place of the old one unless the conditions listed below suggest otherwise. On new installations, please follow these general guidelines:

1. Mount the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor.

2. Do not locate the thermostat where air circulation is poor such as in a corner, alcove, or behind a door that is normally left open.

3. Do not locate the thermostat where unusual heating or cooling conditions may be present, such as: direct sunlight, above a lamp, television, or radiator, or on a wall next to an exterior door or window.

4. Do not locate in a damp environment, as this can lead to corrosion that may shorten thermostat life.

5. If painting or construction work is still ongoing, cover the thermostat completely or wait until this work is complete before installation.

WARNING:

All wiring must conform to the local codes and ordinances that are in your particular location.

REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT:

1. Turn OFF the electricity to all heating and cooling components. Do not turn the electricity back on until all work is completed.

2. Remove the front portion of your old thermostat to expose the wiring connections.

3. Write down the letters printed near each wire terminal that is used, and also the color of each wire that is connected to it. Self-adhesive wire labels are also enclosed.

4. Carefully remove the wires one at a time, and bend them in a manner so that

OFF

they do not fall back inside the wall. Do not allow bare wire ends to touch each other.

5. Loosen the mounting screws for the old thermostat and carefully remove it from the wall.

INSTALL THERMOSTAT BASE:

THERMOSTAT TOP VIEW

1. Strip wire insulation leaving only 3/8 in. (9.5mm) bare wire ends, and clean off any corrosion present.

2. Fill the wall opening with non-combustible insulation to prevent drafts from affecting the thermostat’s normal operation.

3. Separate new thermostat housing using your thumb and index finger. Provide pressure in opposite directions to the release tabs on the top of the housing, in the directions shown in the diagram shown above.

4. Route the wires through the opening in the new thermostat base plate, and hold the base against the wall. Try to line up the screw holes from the prior thermostat, and install the mounting screws.

5. If the previous holes cannot be used, hold the thermostat base against the wall so that it appears straight and level (position the base for best appearance) and mark for the new screw holes. Attach the base to the wall using the screws provided (use the supplied plastic anchors if needed when mounting to a soft material such as drywall).

WIRING INFORMATION:

CONNECTING THE WIRES:

When attaching the wires to the thermostat, please ensure that the bare wire ends are held ALL the way into the terminal block while the screw is being tightened.

WIRING DIAGRAM NOTES:

(Important, please read all notes before connecting wires)

• If the information provided in the following wiring diagrams does not clearly represent or match your system, please refer to the “TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE” section of this manual, and contact us before

removing any of your existing

thermostat wiring.

• All of the dashed wires shown in the wiring diagrams are either optional, or their usage depends upon your specific system type or brand. For example: Diagram #1 shows the fan wire as optional. If your system does not have a fan, than this terminal will not be used.

• Terminal letters shown in black represent typical wiring applications. Depending upon the brand of your specific system or thermostat, your terminal letters may not match exactly. Terminal letters shown in gray represent other possible wiring designations that you might see on your existing thermostat terminals.

• The optional “C” terminal is used for powering the thermostat by the 24-volt system, using the System Common wire. This can be used alone, or in addition to installing batteries as a backup. NOTE: connecting the System Common wire to the thermostat is not necessary for heating and cooling to function properly.

• If your old thermostat has both a “Y” and “C” wire both present, then “C” is most likely a System Common wire.

• For Heat Pump systems, you will use either the “O” terminal or the “B” terminal on this thermostat, but not both. If your old thermostat has both an “O” and a “B” wire present, then “B” is likely a System Common wire and may be connected to the “C” terminal. Connecting a System Common wire to this thermostat’s “B” terminal may damage the thermostat, and also your heating and cooling system.

• Some Heat Pump systems have a wire for AUX electric heat (usually W2), and also a separate wire for Emergency electric heat (usually E). This thermostat uses the W2 terminal for both AUX and Emergency Heat. Tape off your “E” wire, and confirm that all components function without it.

• If replacing an old thermostat that has a mechanical clock, there may be two wires labeled as “C” for the clock power. Tape off these wires and do not connect them to the “C” terminal of this thermostat.
