Programmable Thermostat - Installation and User Guide

*

LP appears only for the first two minutes when the thermostat is without power. This

can occur during a power outage or when the thermal protection device inside the base-
board heater is opened.

This programmable thermostat can be used to control an electric
heating system such as an electric baseboard heater, a radiant ceil-
ing, a radiant floor, a convector or a fan-forced heater.

The thermostat cannot be used with:

a resistive load over 16.7 A

a resistive load under 2 A

a system driven by a contactor or relay (inductive load)

a central heating system

SUPPLIED PARTS:

One (1) thermostat

Two (2) 6-32 screws

Two (2) solderless connectors

TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN
POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THE INSTAL-
LATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN ELECTRICIAN.

All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical
code.

Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when con-
necting with aluminum conductors.

Install the thermostat onto an electrical box.

Install the thermostat about 5 feet high, on an inside wall facing
the heater.

Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a
staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a
door), or direct sunlight.

Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or
stove pipes.

The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be con-
nected to the load or to the power supply.

NOTE:

Always keep the thermostat's vents clean and unobstructed.

n

o

Connect the thermostat wires to the line wires and to the load
wires using solderless connectors for copper wires.

p

Push any excess wire back into the electrical box.

NOTE:

If necessary, before re-installing the front component, config-

ure the thermostat (see section 3).

q

Return power to heating system.
