CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Improper wiring connections can cause
thermostat damage.
1.
Do not short the 240V supply wires inside the
thermostat.
2.
Use wires with solderless connectors approved
for the size and number of wires to be connected,
and make line voltage connections directly to
leadwires on the thermostat.
3.
Make sure that all wiring connections are tight.
1. Determine the load.
a.
New installation:
If the T4600/ET1650 is used in a new installation,
read the wattage rating on each baseboard
heater connected to the individual thermostat and
add up the total wattage. The total wattage must
not exceed 2500W. If the thermostat is applied to
greater than 2500W, a potential fire hazard may
exist.
b.
Replacement installation:
Turn off all electric baseboard heaters. Turn on
the thermostat to be replaced. Go around the
room and feel each baseboard to determine if any
are getting warm or hot. Measure the length of
the baseboard heaters that have started to heat.
The maximum load per thermostat must not
exceed 2500W (8 ft of baseboard heater).
2. Disconnect power to the thermostat to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage. All wiring must comply
with local electrical codes and ordinances.
3. Remove the T4600 cover at the top or bottom edge with
a slotted screwdriver.
4. Remove the old thermostat from the wall, taking care
not to damage the wiring insulation.
5. Check the old wiring insulation for cracks, nicks or
fraying. Apply approved electrical tape to insulate wires
or replace wires as necessary.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Power supply can cause property damage,
severe injury, or death.
Disconnect power before handling. Battery can be
linked to line voltage.
5. Install the battery. See Fig. 3.
a.
Remove the battery cover on the thermostat
back. Depress the cover tab and lift out.
b.
Insert the battery into the battery slot, noting the
correct polarity indicated above the battery slot.
c.
Replace the battery cover when the battery is
properly installed.
6. Prebend and push the solid wires into the outlet box.
7. Mount the thermostat on the outlet box as shown in
Fig. 4. Secure the thermostat by tightening the two
mounting screws.
8. Replace the thermostat cover.
9. Turn on the power.
