The CGs control module is
polarity-sensitive. The hot and
neutral wires must be connected to
the correct leads. A flashing POWER
light usually indicates reversed
polarity of 120 VAC lead wires.
Thermostat
1. Connect thermostat as shown on wiring diagram
on boiler.
2.
Install on inside wall away from influences of
drafts, hot or cold water pipes, lighting fixtures,
television, sunrays, or fireplaces.
3. If thermostat has a heat anticipator, set heat
anticipator in thermostat to match power
requirements of equipment connected to it. If
connected directly to boiler, set for 0.4 amps. For
other devices, refer to manufacturer’s specifications.
Wiring diagram on boiler gives setting for control
module and gas valve. Also see instructions with
thermostat.
