INSTALLATION

Read these instructions thoroughly before installing
product. Failure to follow these instructions could
damage the product or cause a hazardous condition.
Check the voltage and current ratings on the product
to ensure that it is suitable for your application.
Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician. Check product for proper operation after
installation.

CAUTION

Damage to heating and cooling system may occur.
Disconnect power from the equipment at the main
breaker/fuse block while installing the thermostat.

Take out the front cover by sliding it to the right
and remove. See Fig.3.

Mounting Location

Mount the thermostat approximately 5 ft. (1.5m)
above the floor in a location that is free from direct
sunlight, heat from appliances, hot or cold air from
ducts, concealed pipes and chimneys, and drafts or
dead spots behind doors or in corners. Do not mount
on exterior wall, if possible. Failure to locate
thermostat mounting as indicated will result in poor
temperature control.

NOTE:

Level thermostat mounting is for appearance
only and is not required for proper thermostat
operation.

Using the thermostat base as a guide, mark two
mounting holes on the wall. Drill two mounting
holes. Thread the wires from the heating and
cooling equipment through the wiring hole on the
thermostat base. Holding the base in place on the
wall, secure it to the wall using appropriately
sized screws (Fig. 4).

Mount and Wire the Thermostat

Remove the locking screw at the side of the
thermostat. Pull the temp. knob upward and remove it.
