INSTALLING YOUR THERMOSTAT

NEW INSTALLATION

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU PROGRAM THE
THERMOSTAT WITH BATTERY INSTALLED BE-
FORE ATTACHING ON SUBBASE. SEE OPERA-
TION SECTION FOR PROGRAMMING INSTRUC-
TIONS.

SELECT THERMOSTAT LOCATION

Proper location insures that the thermostat will
provide a comfortable building temperature. Ob-
serve the following general rules when selecting
a location:

1. Locate thermostat about 5 ft. above the floor.

2. Install thermostat on a partitioning wall, not on an

outside wall.

3. Never expose thermostat to direct light from

lamps, sun, fireplaces or any temperature radiat-
ing equipment.

4. Avoid locations close to windows, adjoining out-

side walls, or doors that lead outside.

5. Avoid locations close to air registers or in the

direct path of air from them.

6. Make sure there are no pipes or duct work in that

part of the wall chosen for the thermostat loca-
tion.

7. Never locate thermostat in a room that normally

warmer or cooler than the rest of the building.

8. Avoid locations with poor air circulation, such as

behind doors or in alcoves.

ROUTE WIRES TO LOCATION

All wiring must conform with local and national
electrical codes and ordinances.
