as the old one.
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.
