This thermostat is protected against normal static electric
discharges; however touching a grounded metal object
before touching your thermostat will minimize the risk of
damaging the unit in extremely dry weather.
4. SELECTING A LOCA
TION
On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in
place of the old one unless the conditions listed below
suggest otherwise. On new installations, follow the
guidelines listed below.
1. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m)
above the floor, and in a room that is used often.
2. Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as in a
corner or an alcove, or behind an open door.
3. Do not install it where there are unusual heating
conditions, such as: in direct sunlight; near a lamp,
television, radiator, register, or fireplace; near hot water
pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of a wall.
4. 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.
5. Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion
that may shorten thermostat life.
6. If painting or construction work has yet to be completed,
cover the unit completely or do not install it.
WARNING:
• Read instructions carefully before removing any wires from
your existing thermostat.
• All wiring must conform to the local codes and ordinances
that are in your particular location.
