Step 1. Prepare for Installation ❑ Check Table 1 to make sure this thermostat is compatible with your system. If not, return to retailer. For more information, call Duracraft Consumer Services, toll-free 1-800-554-4558. Table 1. Compatibility Chart.
❑ Acquire tools and items as needed (below). Also purchase two AA alkaline batteries; we recommend Energizer® batteries.
Step 2. Remove Old Thermostat masking tape to label it with the old terminal designation. If there are only two wires, they do not need to be labeled. If there is an extra wire that is not connected to your old thermostat, you will also not be connecting it to your new thermostat. Keep the wires from falling back into the wall by wrapping them around a pencil as shown. ❑ Test to make certain that your heating and cooling systems are working properly.
terminals on the Chronotherm® Thermostat wiring wallplate. Do not allow them to touch, or you may damage your transformer. Disconnect the wires and wrap them separately, using electrical tape. Do not wrap them together. Place the wires where they will not interfere with the operation of the new thermostat. Record the colors and terminal designation labels of the remaining wires.
❒ Purchase two AA alkaline batteries; nonalkaline batteries will not last as long, and may leak, causing damage to the thermostat or the wall surface. We recommend Energizer® batteries. ❒ Open top cover of thermostat to access control panel and battery compartment. ❒ Make sure the thermostat is set in the Off position. ❒ Use a coin to remove battery cover. ❒ Install the fresh batteries as shown, making sure positive and negative terminals are oriented correctly. ❒ Replace battery cover.
After the batteries are completely dead, the bAt Lo indicator will disappear, leaving a completely blank display. Press down on left ends of batteries to remove. If you insert the new batteries within 20 to 30 seconds of removing the old ones, you will not have to reprogram the thermostat. However, if the display is blank, the batteries are dead or incorrectly installed and you will have to reprogram. See pages 14 to 17 to reprogram.
WAKE is the time period you want the house at a comfortable temperature when you get up and while you get ready for work or school. (This will be a higher temperature during heating season, or a lower temperature during cooling season.) Step 4. Program the Thermostat After the batteries are installed, the thermostat can be easily programmed in your hand before it is installed on the wall.
it. For example, a house that is occupied during weekdays would only require programs for WAKE and SLEEP. SLEEP is the time period you can set for an energy-saving temperature while you are sleeping. (Again, lower heat or higher cool. For more comfortable sleeping, some people choose not to raise the cool temperature during the night.) If no program is entered for the weekends, the thermostat will operate on the weekday SLEEP program all weekend.

(If using TEMPORARILY CHANGE or HOLD, Run Program Check Programs—Press repeatedly to see each time and temperature; then press Cancel Program—Press . Time Schedule until program to cancel shows; then press together.
Step 5. Adjust Fan Operation Switch, As Required ❑ The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled FUEL SWITCH (see illustration on page 19) is factory-set in the F position. This is the correct setting for most systems. If your system is an electric heat system, set the switch to E. The E setting will allow the fan to turn on immediately with the heating or cooling in a system where the G terminal is connected. Step 6.
❑ The thermostat is set to read the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. If readings are desired in degrees Celsius, adjust screw C out one turn, as shown in illustration. First, turn in both screws completely, then adjust for system type: • Warm Air Furnace—Set at the Hot Water setting (A—out one turn, B—leave in). • Electric Furnace—leave at the Warm Air Furnace setting (A—leave in, B—leave in).
Step 7. Mount Thermostat Mounting Plate ❑ Position mounting plate on wall. Use level to make sure mounting plate is level. Use a pencil to mark the two mounting holes. ❑ Remove mounting plate from wall, and drill 3/16-inch holes in wall (if drywall) as marked. For firmer material such as plaster or wood, drill WALL ANCHORS (2) WIRES THROUGH 7/32-inch WALL OPENING holes. Gently WALL tap anchors (provided) into drilled holes MOUNTING PLATE until flush with the wall.
Step 8. Wire Thermostat Terminals ❑ In 5-wire installations only, be sure to remove the factory-installed jumper connecting terminals R and Rc. NOTE: All wiring must comply with local codes and ordinances. If unsure about household wiring procedures, call your local heating/air conditioning contractor. METHOD TO INCREASE WIRE LENGTH Refer to masking tape labels you placed on wires when you removed your old thermostat.
❑ Loosen the terminal screws and slip each wire beneath its matching terminal. See illustration (lower right) for wire insertion technique. securely tighten terminals. ❑ Plug the hole in the wall with insulation to help prevent drafts from adversely affecting thermostat operation.

Step 10. Check Thermostat Operation After Programming and Installing Heating Do not check heating system operation by jumpering thermostat terminals, such as the gas valve, zone valve, oil burner control at the primary control. This will damage the thermostat; instead, jumper R and W wires at the thermostat. Cool Off Auto Heat Move the System switch to Heat and the fan switch to Auto. On TEMP Press TEMP key until the setting is about 10°F (6°C) above room temperature.
Cooling To avoid possible compressor damage, do not operate the cooling system when outside temperature is below 50°F (10°C). See compressor manufacturer instructions for further information. Cool Off Auto Heat Move the System switch to Cool and the fan switch to Auto. On TEMP Press TEMP key until setting is about 10°F (6°C) below room temperature. The cooling equipment and fan should start.
Step 11. Set The Fan and System Switches First set the Fan switch. Fan Auto: Normal setting for most homes. A single-speed fan will turn on automatically with the air conditioner or furnace. A twospeed fan will usually run on high with the air conditioner and on low with the furnace. Auto On Auto On Exception: If Fan Operation Switch on back of thermostat is set to E position (see page 19), fan will operate only with the furnace. Fan On: The fan runs continuously.
Then set the System switch. Cool: The thermostat controls your air conditioning system. Off: Both the heating and air conditioning systems are off. Heat: The thermostat controls your heating system.
