fan on by setting the thermostat fan switch to ON, the CT8775C Thermostat will work with your system. Continue with
the installation at Step 4. If you purchased a CT8775A thermostat, return the product to the place of purchase. The
CT8775A thermostat is not compatible with this application.

STEP 4. LABEL THERMOSTAT WIRES

Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat. As you disconnect each wire, attach

pencil as shown to keep them from falling back into the wall.

wallplate and the thermostat and pulling the thermostat away from
the wallplate. See the illustration at the right.
