STEP 1. PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION ❑ Check Table 1, the compatibility chart, to make sure the thermostat is compatible with your system. If your system is not compatible, call Honeywell Customer Relations Center, toll-free, 1-800-468-1502. Table 1. Compatibility Chart.
STEP 2. REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT ❑ Test your heating and cooling systems to make sure they work properly. If either system does not work, contact your local heating/air-conditioning dealer. To avoid compressor damage, do not operate the cooling system when outdoor temperature is below 50°F (10°C). ❑ Turn off power to the system at the furnace or the fuse/circuit breaker panel. ❑ Carefully unpack your new thermostat and wallplate. Save package of screws, instructions, and receipt.
Replacing a Thermostat that has Three Wires If you have three wires for a heating only system and can operate the fan using the fan ON switch this thermostat works with your system. However, some hot water (zoned) heating systems also have three wires. Your thermostat will work only if you install an isolating relay on these systems. For details, call your local heating and/or cooling contractor. STEP 3.
STEP 4. WIRE WALLPLATE TERMINALS IMPORTANT All wiring must comply with local codes and ordinances. If unsure about household wiring procedures, call your local heating/air-conditioning contractor. W Y FOR WRAPAROUND INSERTION STRIP 7/16 IN. (11 MM). R G Refer to the labels you placed on the wires when you removed the old thermostat (see illustration). ❑ Match the letter of your old thermostat wire with the corresponding terminal letter on your new thermostat. Refer to Table 2.

STEP 7. CUSTOMIZE YOUR THERMOSTAT Your Honeywell CT3550 thermostat comes preset to the most commonly used settings. The settings are: — Gas or oil forced air furnace. — Smart Response technology on. — Temperature °F. — 12-hour clock format. You can change any or all of these settings. IMPORTANT Always press the keys with your fingertip or a similar blunt tool. Sharp instruments like pens and pencil points can damage the keyboard. ❑ Press and hold down , , and , simultaneously until the screen shows.

❑ Press or until the desired wake temperature displays. The setpoint temperature range is 40°F to 90°F (4.5°C to 32°C) for heating and 45°F to 99°F (7°C to 37°C) for cooling. ❑ Press NOTE: Heat/Cool Settings Program times are the same for heating and cooling. ❑ Press ❑ Press NOTE: ❑ Press to switch between setpoints. or until the display shows the desired temperature setpoint. Fan until the fan is at the desired setting (On or Auto).
STEP 10. OPERATING YOUR THERMOSTAT Change Temperature Setting Until the Next Program Period (Temporary Change) ❑ Press NOTE: or until the screen shows the desired temperature setting. The temporary temperature setting is displayed for about 3 seconds and then the room temperature is displayed. Temporary appears in the display. The setting cancels when the next program period starts or when you press Run Program .
STEP 11. SET THE FAN AND SYSTEM KEY Set the Fan Key Fan On: The fan runs continuously. Use for improved air circulation or more efficient central air cleaning.

The equipment controls the fan operation. Press NOTE: Fan until display shows Auto.
If You Have a Problem Table 4. Solution Guide. If... Display does not appear. Then… • • Temperature settings will not change • (example; cannot set the heating higher or the cooling lower). Heating does not come on. • • • • • Cooling does not come on. • • • • • = System on indicator ( = heat, cool) is lit, but no warm or cool air is coming from the registers. Make sure the batteries are installed correctly. Make sure the thermostat is mounted and latched on the wallplate.
Table 4. Solution Guide. If... Temperature change occurs at the wrong times. Then… 1. Check the program times for the period in question. 2. Make sure the AM and PM settings are correct. 3. Make sure the current time and day settings are correct. 4. Reprogram any incorrect settings. NOTE: If your thermostat is set for Smart Response control, the start times occur before your programmed comfort periods.
