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 provide
precise time/temperature control. This thermostat offers you
the flexibility to design heating and cooling programs that fit
your needs.
Features:
• Separate 5-day (weekday), 1-day (Sat) and 1-day (Sun) pro-
gramming with four separate time/temperature periods per
day
• Simultaneous heat and cool program storage
• Preprogrammed temperature control
• LCD continuously displays set point, and alternately
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 contrac-
tor 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.
