Honeywell 08161 White Energy Star LCD Electric Programmable Thermostat

Description

This programmable thermostat can be connected to an electric heating sys-tem such as an electric baseboard, a radiant ceiling, a floor heating system, an electric convector, etc. It is not compatible with a central heating system.

• Set the switch to Off to cut power to the heater. This will not affect the time and temperature settings.

Connection

TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

• The installation must be carried out 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 sun-light.
• Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or stove pipes.

1. Connect the thermostat wires to the power and to the load using solderless connectors for copper wires.
2. Push the excess wire back into the electrical box to prevent interference with the thermostat.
3. Secure the thermostat using two 6-32 screws.
4. Return power to heating system.
   NOTE: Always keep the thermostat’s vents clean and unobstructed.

Configuration

The configuration switches are on the back of the thermostat. Default (factory) settings are inside the gray cells.
