the mounting of the thermostat
plate. Move panel if needed.
(Using a rubber-coated tool,
or hammer handle; carefully
pry upwards.) See page 1 for
complete instructions.
For more effective and safer operation and to prolong the life of
the heater, read the Owner’s Guide and follow the maintenance
instructions. Failure to properly maintain the heater will void any
warranty and may cause the heater to function improperly. War-
ranties are non transferable and apply to original consumer only.
Warranty terms are set out below.
LIMITED ONE-YEAR WARRANTY:
Cadet will repair or replace
any Smart-Base (SBFT2) thermostat found to be defective within
one year after the date of purchase.
These warranties do not apply:

PLACEMENT AS SET OUT HEREIN. CADET SHALL NOT BE
LIABLE FOR DAMAGES SUCH AS PROPERTY DAMAGE OR
FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND/OR INCIDENTAL EX-
PENSES RESULTING FROM BREACH OF THESE WRITTEN
WARRANTIES OR ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY.
7. IN THE EVENT CADET ELECTS TO REPLACE ANY PART

ARE SUBJECT TO THE SAME WARRANTIES AS THE PROD-
UCT. THE INSTALLATION OF REPLACEMENT PARTS DOES
NOT MODIFY OR EXTEND THE UNDERLYING WARRANTIES.

Reduce-Reuse-Recycle
This product is made primarily of recyclable materials.
You can reduce your carbon footprint by recycling this
product at the end of its useful life. Contact your local
recycling support center for further recycling instruc-
tions.
STEP 2
Carefully push wiring back into the wiring compartment.
Keep all wires away from the Smart-Base circuit board.
These wires may interfere with the clock and thermostat’s
performance.
Hook upper edge of thermostat under lip of case.
Lower the bottom edge of thermostat to wiring compartment
surface and secure with mounting screw.
Be sure all four wire connectors are tight and secure.
STEP 3
At this point, the baseboard should be securely
mounted, and the SBFT2 thermostat wired and
secured to the baseboard junction box. The
other junction box should have the baseboard
end plate/cover secured in place.
Verify that the thermostat rocker switch is in the
“O” (OFF) position before reestablishing the
electrical power at the panel for power flow to
the baseboard heater.
This thermostat will load its default settings after power is established for the first time.
Refer to the General Programming Operation Guide included for complete programming and operating instructions of
your SBFT2 thermostat.
The heater and thermostat must be properly installed before they are used.
