WARNING
TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN
POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THE
INSTALLATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN ELECTRICIAN.
All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical
code.
Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when
connecting with aluminum conductors.
Install the thermostat onto an electrical box.
Install the thermostat about 5 feet high, on an inside wall facing the
heater.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a
staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a door),
or direct sunlight.
Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or
stove pipes.
The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be
connected to the load or to the power supply.
Always keep the thermostat's vents clean and unobstructed.
