To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment
damage, disconnect electric power to system, at
main fuse or circuit breaker box, until installation
is complete.
This typical wiring diagram shows only terminal identifica-
tion and wiring hook-up. Always refer to the wiring instruc-
tions provided by the equipment manufacturer for system
hook-up.
All wiring should be installed according to local and
national electrical codes and ordinances.
5. Position thermostat base over hole in wall and mark
mounting hole location on wall.
6. Drill mounting hole.
7. Fasten base loosely to wall using mounting screws.
Place a level against the top of the thermostat base,
adjust until level, and tighten mounting screws to
secure base. If holes in wall are too large and do not
allow you to tighten the mounting screws securely, use
plastic expansion plugs.
8. Snap cover on the thermostat base and set tempera-
ture lever to desired setpoint.
9. Turn on electrical power to system.

the switch.
3. Pull wires through the opening in the thermostat base
and connect wires beneath the terminal screws (see
Fig. 2 & 3).
4. Push excess wiring back into wall and plug hole with
fire resistant material (such as fiberglass insulation) to
prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.
