To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage,
disconnect electrical power to the system at the main
fuse or circuit breaker until installation is complete.
Before removing wires from old thermostat’s switching subbase,
label each wire with the terminal designation it was removed from.
Some models also include an adaptor plate to cover unpainted
surfaces. Thermostat wires pass through the adaptor plate center
opening.
1. Remove Old Thermostat: A standard heat/cool thermostat
consists of two basic parts:
a. The cover, which may be either a snap-on or hinge type.
b. The base, which is removed by loosening all captive screws.

WARNING
!
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified voltage.
Higher voltage will damage control and could cause
shock or fire hazard.
Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary
control to test. Short or incorrect wiring will damage
thermostat and could cause personal injury and/or
property damage.
Thermostat installation and all components of the system shall conform to Class II circuits per the NEC code.
A. Mount base and adaptor plate: Mount base and adaptor
plate (optional) to wall using screws provided (see Fig. 1).
B. Attach wires: Attach one wire to R and the other wire to Y on
base.
C. Snap on cover: Carefully align the cover with the base and
snap the cover onto the base.
CAUTION
!
Take care when securing and routing wires so they do
not short to adjacent terminals or rear of thermostat.
Personal injury and/or property damage may occur.
