Loosen the terminal screws and slip each wire beneath

its matching terminal. See Fig. 2 for wiring insertion tech-
niques. Tighten terminals securely.

Plug the hole in the wall with insulation to help prevent

drafts from adversely affecting thermostat operation.

ADJUST FAN OPERATION SWITCH, AS
REQUIRED

The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled FUEL

SWITCH (see Fig. 7), is factory-set in the F position. This
is the correct setting for most systems. If this system is an
electric heat system, set the switch to E. The E setting
allows the fan to turn on immediately with the heating or
cooling in a system where the G terminal is connected.

ADJUST BURNER ON-TIME,  AS REQUIRED

The thermostat burner on-time is factory-set for a warm

air, gas or oil heating system. When installing it on another
type of system, adjust the burner on-time accordingly by
setting screws A and B on the back of the thermostat, using
the heating system table in Fig. 7 as a guide. To minimize
room temperature swings, optimize the on-time according
to the type of system (see Table 2). Adjusting the screw
“out one turn” means turning the screw approximately
360

°

, or about one complete turn.
