Installation Guide 7
INSTALLATION GUIDE INTRODUCTION This thermostat can replace common residential thermostats and it is designed for use with most electric, oil or gas heating and air-conditioning systems that use low voltage control. Please see compatibility chart for more details. Weekday / Weekend programming with 4 programs per day. Display temperature with 0.1°. l Built-in protection timing for the air-conditioner compressor.
The following tools may be required for installation: Hand Power Drill with a 3/16 inch bit Cross screwdriver ( If necessary, to drill holes on the wall ) Masking Tape (To wrap the exposed wires temporarily and labeling the disconnected wires) Level (If necessary, to level the thermostat) Wire Stripper/Cutter (If necessary, to strip the wires) Two AA size batteries (included) - AA SIZE + - AA SIZE + See below to select a suitable place for the new thermostat installation.
CHOOSING LOCATION FOR THE NEW THERMOSTAT Thermostat should be mounted: l l l Approximately 5 ft (1.5m) from floor. Near or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside partitioning wall. On a section of wall without pipes or duct-work Thermostat should NOT be mounted: Near a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading outside. With exposure to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or other temperature-radiating objects which may cause false readings.
REPLACING OLD THERMOSTAT Note: Do not operate the cooling system when outside temperature is below 10°C (50°F) to avoid damaging the compressor. Test the system to make sure that your heating and cooling are working properly before installation. If either does not work, contact your local heating/air-conditioning dealer to fix the problem before installation. l TURN OFF POWER to system at the furnace, or at the fuse/circuit breaker panel.
MOUNTING THE THERMOSTAT BACK-COVER The back-cover should be mounted horizontally with the terminals on the left side. l Thread the existing wiring through the big center hole from the back and set the back-cover horizontally on the wall. l Select two appropriate mounting holes and mark the locations with a pencil. If necessary, use a level to make sure the thermostat is leveled. l Remove the back-cover from the wall and drill two 3/16 inch holes in the marked screw positions.
CONNECTING THE WIRES TO THE TERMINALS Connect the previously labeled wires to the corresponding terminals, matching the designations. Use a screwdriver to securely fasten the wires onto the terminals. Make sure the wires do not short-circuit with other terminals. Wall Through Hole Back-Cover Wall Depending on your heating/cooling equipment, you may need to connect 2 to 4 wires to the thermostat.
