Identify Wires

If any wires are not attached to your old thermostat or are
attached to a terminal marked C or C1, they will not be
connected to your new thermostat. Wrap the bare metal
end of each of these wires with electrical tape, so it cannot touch and short other wires.
Do not use non-connected
wires.
Do not use C or C1 wires.
Identify and label each wire.
IGNORE WIRE COLORS:
Use terminal screw
designations to identify
wires.
Disconnect wires and remove the old wallplate only after
all wires are labeled. Wrap the wires around a pencil to
prevent them from falling though the wall opening.

the fan is running before the furnace has enough time to
heat up the air.
