FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE
PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Your new White-Rodgers 5-Day/1-Day/1-Day Digital Thermo­stat uses the technology of a solid-state microcomputer to

your needs.

Features:

• 24 Volt System powered.

• Separate 5-day (weekday), 1-day (Sat) and 1-day (Sun) pro­gramming with four separate time/temperature settings per day

• Simultaneous heat and cool program storage

• Preprogrammed temperature control

• Backlit display

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

DESCRIPTION

• LCD continuously displays set point, and alternately dis­plays time and room temperature

• Temperature override until next program period

• Manual program override (HOLD temperature)

• Temporary HOLD

• °F/°C convertibility

PRECAUTIONS

This thermostat is intended for use with a low voltage system; do
not use this thermostat with a line voltage system. If in doubt
about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low voltage, have
it inspected by a qualified heating and air conditioning contractor
or electrician.

Do not exceed the specification ratings.

All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and
ordinances.

This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled
carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause
the control to malfunction.

CAUTION

!

To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment dam­age, disconnect electric power to system at main fuse
or circuit breaker box until installation is complete.

18 to 30 VAC 50/60 Hz. or D.C.

0.05 to 1.0 Amps (Load per terminal)

1.5 Amps Maximum Total Load (All terminals combined)

THERMAL DATA

Setpoint Temperature Range:

45°F to 90°F (7°C to 32°C)

Operating Ambient Temperature Range:

32°F to 105°F

Operating Humidity Range:

0 to 90% RH (non-condensing)

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.

INSTALLATION

REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT

1. Shut off electricity at the main fuse box until installation is
complete. Ensure that electrical power is disconnected.

2. Remove the front cover of the old thermostat. With wires
still attached, remove wall plate from the wall. If the old
thermostat has a wall mounting plate, remove the thermostat
and the wall mounting plate as an assembly.

3. Identify each wire attached to the old thermostat using the

labels enclosed with the new thermostat.

4. Disconnect the wires from old thermostat one at a time. DO
NOT LET WIRES FALL BACK INTO THE WALL.

5. Install new thermostat using the following procedures..

ATTENTION!

This product does not contain mercury. However, this product
may replace a unit which contains mercury.

Do not open mercury cells. If a cell becomes damaged, do not
touch any spilled mercury. Wearing non-absorbent gloves, take
up the spilled mercury with sand or other absorbent material and
place into a container which can be sealed. If a cell becomes
damaged, the unit should be discarded.

Mercury must not be discarded in household trash. When the
unit this product is replacing is to be discarded, place in a
suitable container and return to White-Rodgers at 9797 Reavis
Road, St. Louis, MO, 63123-5398 for proper disposal.

ELECTRIC HEAT OR SINGLE-STAGE

HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS

Read entire paragraph before setting electric heat switch. If you
are unsure of your application, contact a qualified service
person.

If you have a single-stage heat pump system, OR your system
uses central electric heat, where the blower is energized by a
separate circuit through the fan relay (meaning that the fan
turns on immediately on call for heat), then the switch on the
thermostat base must be moved to the “ELECTRIC” position
(see fig 1). If the thermostat is energizing electric heat sequenc­ers, the switch MUST remain in the “GAS” position.

If you must move the switch to the “ELECTRIC” position (to the
left), use a small screwdriver or pencil.

6. Push excess wire into wall and plug hole with a fire-resistant
material (such as fiberglass insulation) to prevent drafts from
affecting thermostat operation.

HEATING SYSTEMS

This thermostat is set to operate properly with a forced-air
heating system. If you have a hydronic heating system (a system
that heats with hot water or steam), you must set the thermostat
to operate properly with your system. Change the second option
in the configuration menu to SL (see CONFIGURATION MENU,
page 4).

CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION

If at any time during testing your system does not operate
properly, contact a qualified service person.

Turn on power to the system.

ATTACH THERMOSTAT BASE TO WALL

1. Remove the packing material from the thermostat. Gently
pull the cover straight off the base. Forcing or prying on the
thermostat will cause damage to the unit. If necessary, move
the electric heat switch (see ELECTRIC HEAT SYSTEMS,
above).

2. Connect wires beneath terminal screws on base using
appropriate wiring schematic (see figs. 2 through 7).

3. Place base over hole in wall and mark mounting hole
locations on wall using base as a template.

4. Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes.

5. Fasten base loosely to wall, as shown in fig. 1, using two
mounting screws. Place a level against bottom of base,
adjust until level, and then tighten screws. (Leveling is for
appearance only and will not affect thermostat operation.) If
you are using existing mounting holes, or if holes drilled are
too large and do not allow you to tighten base snugly, use
plastic screw anchors to secure subbase.

Fan Operation

If your system does not have a G terminal connection, skip to
Heating System.

1. Move fan switch to ON position. The blower should begin to
operate.

2. Move fan switch to AUTO position. The blower should stop
immediately.

Heating System

1. Move SYSTEM switch to HEAT position. If the heating
system has a standing pilot, be sure to light it.

2. Press to adjust thermostat setting above room tempera­ture. The heating system should begin to operate.

3. Press
perature. The heating system should stop operating.
