7. Move the base out of the way. Drill mounting holes. Use a hammer to tap in the supplied anchors into the mounting
holes.
8. Fasten the base loosely to the wall as shown in Figure 1, using two mounting screws. Place a level against the
bottom of the base and adjust until level, then tighten the screws. (Leveling is for appearance only, and will not affect
thermostat operation.)
9. Insert stripped, labeled wires into matching wire terminals. See “Wiring Diagrams”, Figure 2.
CAUTION: Be sure exposed portions of wires do not touch other wires.
6
10. Tighten screws on terminal block. Gently tug on each wire to be sure of proper connection.
Double check that each wire is connected to the proper terminal.
CAUTION: Installing batteries backwards can damage the thermostat.
11. Install two fresh “AA” alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. Be sure to match positive (+) ends of batteries
with positive (+) battery terminals in the battery compartment (The thermostat will not operate from 2 size “AA” alkaline
batteries or 24VAC power. When batteries are installed the clock will be maintained during power outages.).
12. Replace the cover on the thermostat by snapping it in place.
13. Turn on power to the system at the main service panel.
14. Test thermostat operation as described in the following section.
Fan operation switch
Read the following information before setting the fan option switch (See figure 3). If you are unsure of your application,
contact a qualified service person.
This thermostat is configured from the factory to energize the fan on a call for heat. If your system is an electric heat or
heat pump that REQUIRES the thermostat to turn on the fan on a call for heat, place the fan option switch in the ELEC
position. If your system does not require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for heat such as fossil fuel (gas, oil,
etc.), forced air system as well as hydraulic heating systems, place the fan option switch in the GAS position.
7
BATTERY OPERATION
With two “AA” batteries installed, your thermostat will maintain time and continuously display the temperature during a
loss of AC power. The LCD Backlight will not function when AC power is lost.
If the battery icon on the display is flashing, it indicates that the batteries need to be replaced. When the thermostat is
powered only by battery, the battery icon will flash for approximately 2 months before the batteries are expected to
expire.

CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION
If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly, contact a qualified service person.
Heating system
Turn on power to the system. Fan Operation Move the system switch to the OFF position. If your system does not
have a “G” (Fan) terminal connection, skip to the Heating System.
1.Move the fan switch to the ON position. The blower should begin to operate.
2.Move the fan switch to the AUTO position. The blower should stop immediately.
3.Move the SYSTEM switch to the HEAT position. If the auxiliary heating system has a standing pilot, be sure to
light it.
When the (FA)st heating cycle rate is selected in the configuration menu, (see configuration
menu item 2), the thermostat will call for heat at 0.5ºF (0.5ºC) below set-point, and turn off at set point. When the
(SL)ow heating cycle rate is selected, the thermostat will call for heat at 1.5ºF (1.5ºC) below set-point, and turn off at
9
set-point. When the thermostat calls for heat, the display will show Heat On. If the Heat On display is flashing, the
compressor lockout feature is operating in the heat pump mode. (Note: See Configuration menu item 7).
The Aux heating will activate when the room temperature is 2°F (1.0°C) below setpoint temperature. When Aux
heating turns on, AUX 1+2 will be displayed. Note: Aux heating can also be configured to turn on at 10ºF below Setpoint
– see the configuration menu 8.
Cooling System
CAUTION: To prevent compressor and/or property damage, if the outdoor temperature is below 50ºF (10ºC), DO
NOT operate the cooling system.
1. Move the SYSTEM switch to the COOL position.
2. When the (FA)st cooling cycle rate is selected in the configuration menu, (see configuration menu item 2), the
thermostat will call for cooling at 0.5ºF (0.5ºC) above set-point, and turn off at set point. When the (SL)ow cool cycle
rate is selected, the thermostat will call for cooling at 1.5ºF (1.5ºC) above set-point, and turn off at set-point. When the
thermostat calls for cooling, the display will show COOL On. If the COOL On display is flashing, the compressor lockout
feature is operating. (Note: See Configuration menu item 7). If all functions operate properly, the thermostat is
installed correctly.
10
Emergency Heating System
EMER by passes the HEAT PUMP to use the heat source connected to terminal E on the thermostat. EMER is
typically used when compressor operation is not desired, or you prefer to use the back-up heating system only.
1. Move the SYSTEM switch to the EMER position. EMER will blink on the display.
2. When the (FA)st heating cycle is selected in the configuration menu, (See configuration menu item 2), the
thermostat will call for Emergency heat at 0.5°F below the set-point, and turn off at set-point. When the (SL)ow heating
cycle is selected, the thermostat will call for Emergency heat at 1.5°F below the set-point, and turn off at set-point.
As the thermostat calls for Emergency heat, the display will show Heat On AND +2, EMER will display flashing, and
HEAT PUMP will be blank. All these indicate Emergency heating is operating. If all functions operate properly, the
thermostat is properly installed.
