Warning Disconnect power before beginning installation.
Thermostat Location
Install the thermostat approximately 5 feet (1.5m) above the floor in an area
that has a good amount of air circulation and maintains an average room
temperature.
Avoid installation in locations where the thermostat can be affected by
drafts, dead air spots, hot or cold air ducts, sunlight, appliances, concealed
pipes, chimneys and outside walls.
Install the Sub-Base
- Remove the sub-base from the body of the thermostat.
- Mount the sub-base as shown below:
Provide Power
- Battery Power – Insert the 2 supplied “AA” type alkaline batteries into the battery compartment located in the rear housing of the thermostat. Make sure to position the Positive (+) and Negative (-) sides of the batteries correctly with the +/- symbols in the battery compartment.
- Optional 24 Volt AC power – Connect the common side of the transformer to the C terminal on the thermostat sub-base. In dual transformer installations, the transformer common must come from the cooling transformer.
Set Installer Switches
The Installer switches are located on the back of the thermostat and must be properly configured for this thermostat to operate properly.
Attach to Thermostat Sub-Base
Once you complete the wiring in Section 3, attach thermostat to sub-base and then configure the Installer Settings in Section 5.
- Line up the thermostat body with the sub-base.
- Carefully push the thermostat body against the sub-base until it snaps in place.
NOTE: This thermostat ships configured as a conventional (CONV) thermostat.

SYSTEM TESTING
Warning Read Before Testing
- Do not short (or jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the heating or cooling system control board to test the thermostat installation. This could damage the thermostat and void the warranty.
- Do not select the COOL mode of operation if the outside temperature is below 50º F (10º C). This could possibly damage the controlled cooling system and may cause personal injury.
- This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the compressor from short cycling. When testing the system, make sure to take this delay into account.
NOTE: The compressor delay can be bypassed by adjusting Installer Setting 4 – See section 5.
- Move the SYSTEM switch to HEAT mode.
- Press the button to raise the set temperature a minimum of 3 degrees above the current room temperature. The system should start within a few seconds. With a gas heating system, the fan may not start right away.
- Move the SYSTEM switch to OFF mode. Allow the heating system to fully shut down.
- Move the SYSTEM switch to COOL mode.
- Press the button to lower the set temperature a minimum of 3 degrees below the current room temperature. The system should start within a few seconds (unless compressor short cycle protection is active – See note above).
- Move the SYSTEM switch to OFF mode. Allow the cooling system to fully shut down.
- Move the FAN switch to FAN ON mode. The system fan should start within a few seconds.
- Move the FAN switch to FAN AUTO mode. Allow the system fan to turn off.
