Placement

Heat from the screen may be trapped 

within the body of the Control by an 

external top-down airflow source, such 

as a ceiling fan.

The onboard thermistor may be biased 

by this heat causing the displayed 

indoor temperature to be elevated.

4.2  Mounting / Installation

 
Follow these steps to mount the

 

102

 

Control to the wall.

1. 

Turn OFF all power to heating and cooling equipment.

2. 

If an existing thermostat is being replaced:

a.  Record color and terminal marking of each wire.
b.  Disconnect the wires from the existing thermostat 

being careful not to allow them to fall back into the wall.

c.  Remove the existing thermostat from the wall.

3. 

Pull the cover off the thermostat body. Forcing or prying on 
the thermostat will cause damage to the unit.

4. 

Move thermostat body over hole in wall and mark mounting 
hole locations on wall using base as template. (See Fig. 1)

5. 

Move base out of the way. Drill mounting holes. If you are 
using existing mounting holes pull thermostat wire bundle 
through the hole in the thermostat base. Mount sub-base 
to wall. Leveling is for appearance only and will not affect 
thermostat operation.

6. 

Connect wires to terminal block on base using appropriate 
wiring diagram.

7. 

Push excess wire into wall and plug hole with a fire resistant 
material (such as fiberglass insulation) to prevent drafts 
from affecting thermostat operation.

8. 

Two “AAA” alkaline batteries are included in the thermostat 
at the factory with a battery tag to prevent power drainage.

9. 

Remove the battery tag to engage the batteries

To replace batteries, set system to 

OFF

, remove thermostat cover from wall and install 

the batteries in the bottom of the thermostat. For best results, use a premium brand 
“AAA” alkaline battery. If the home is going to be unoccupied for an extended period 
(over 3 months) and “

 

 

 

” is displayed the batteries should be replaced before 

leaving.

IMPORTANT: 

• 

Do not exceed the specification ratings.

• 

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

• 

This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause the 
control to malfunction
