new Installations:
Follow the guidelines below and refer to the
diagram:
• Locate the thermostat on an inside wall,
about 5 ft. above the floor, and in a room that is
used often.
• Do not install it where there are unusual
heating conditions, such as in direct sunlight,
near a lamp, radio, television, radiator register,
or fireplace, near hot water pipes in a wall, near
a stove on the other side of a wall.
• Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions
such as on a wall separating an unheated room,
or in a draft from a stairwell, door or window.
• Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead
to corrosion that will shorten the life of the
thermostat.
• Do not locate where air circulation is poor,
such as in a corner or an alcove, or behind an
open door.
• Do not install the thermostat unit until all
construction work and painting has been
completed.
• This thermostat does not require leveling for
proper operation.
Your thermostat is a precise instrument,
handle it with care.
• Turn off electricity to the heating and
air conditioning units before installing
or servicing the thermostat or any part
of the system.
• Do not turn electricity on again until
work is completed.
• Do not short (jumper) across electric
terminals at control on furnace or air
conditioner to test the system. This will
damage the thermostat and void your
warranty.
• All wiring must conform to local
codes and ordinances.
• This thermostat is designed for use
with 24 volt AC systems. The thermostat
should be limited to a maximum of 1.0
amps, higher amperage may cause
damage to the thermostat.
