Features Compatibility This thermostat is designed to be connected to low voltage (24 volt and milivolt) control wires only! Do not connect directly to wires carrying regular household voltage (120V /240V) as it would be dangerous. For details on compatibility of your particular equipment, please call our technical assistance line.
• Near concealed pipes and chimneys. • In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in an alcove. After choosing a location for the new thermostat, you must arrange to have a heating contractor install the control wiring for you.
Installation Replacing Old Thermostat Prior to replacing an old thermostat please test the system to make sure your heating and air conditioning systems are in working order. If there is any concern please consult a specialist. WARNING: Many old thermostats contain MERCURY and should be removed with caution and disposed of as a HAZARDOUS WASTE.
Installation Wiring NOTE: Please note the wire colours and terminal letters they are attached to on the old thermostat. WIRING COLOURS ARE NOT ALWAYS STANDARDIZED, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO LABEL ALL WIRES ACCORDING TO THE LETTER DESIGNATION ON YOUR OLD THERMOSTAT. (The wires are usually designated ‘W’, ‘Y’, ‘G’, ‘RH’, ‘RC’, ‘B’, ‘O’...

• The original humidistat should be removed or set to 'OFF' position. • The 2 humidifier control terminals 'H1' and 'H2' are electrically isolated from the Heat / Cool terminals. • 'H1' and 'H2' terminals are non-polarized, and there is no function difference between 'H1' and 'H2'.
Installation Connecting the Wires to the Terminals Connect the previously labeled wires to the corresponding terminals, matching the designations. Use a screwdriver to loosen the terminal, wrap the wires around the terminal, and then tighten to securely fasten the wires. Make sure the wires do not touch or short-circuit with other terminals.
Installation Mounting the Thermostat Back-cover • The back-cover should be mounted horizontally with the terminals on the top. • Thread the existing wiring through the big center hole from the back and set the back-cover vertically on the wall. • Select two appropriate mounting holes, and mark the locations with a pencil. If necessary, use a level to make sure the thermostat is positioned straight.
