INSTALLATION
Mount the EWT-3611 Thermostat about 5 feet above the
floor in an area with good air circulation at average
temperature. DO NOT install the thermostat where it can
be affected by:
drafts or dead spots behind doors and in corners
hot or cold air from ducts
radiant heat from sun or appliances
concealed pipes and chimneys
on surfaces such as an outside wall, that are a
different temperature then the room air
temperature.

Mount wallplate and Thermostat
Remove the wallplate from your thermostat by pressing the
release tab on the bottom of the thermostat. See Figure 2.
Figure 2
Position wallplate on the wall and pull the wires through the
large opening. Level the unit for appearance. Mark the
mounting holes for the provided wall anchors.
Drill holes with a 3/16” bit and gently tap anchors into holes
until flush with the wall.
Reposition wallplate to wall, pulling wires through the large
opening. Insert mounting screws provided into the wall
anchors and tighten. See figure 3.

In order for this thermostat to control your system, the system type
must be specified by the selector switch on the circuit board inside
the thermostat. There is also a selector switch for your choice of
Fahrenheit or Celsius display. See figure 4.
Fan Mode Selector (HG-HE switch)
The factory position is in the “HG” position. Leave it in this position if
you have a gas furnace or an oil burner. If you have an electric
furnace or hot water coil change the position to “HE”.
System Selector (STANDARD - HEAT PUMP switch)
The factory position for this switch is in the STD position. Leave it in
this position if you have ANY system that uses gas, oil, electric or hot
water heating.
If you have a single stage Heat Pump, the thermostat can be
configured to the Heat Pump mode by moving the switch to the “HP”
position. This thermostat model
does not
have auxiliary or
emergency heat features, therefore it cannot be used on heat pump
systems that require these functions.
Changing the battery:
One fresh AA alkaline battery should provide about one year of
service. However, when the battery becomes drained, the thermostat
will not function. At your earliest convenience, you need to replace
the battery with one new AA alkaline battery.
NOTE: If you remove or replace the battery, the temperature set point
and Span settings will reset back to the factory default settings.
NOTE: If you plan to be away from the premises over 30 days, we
recommend that you replace the old battery with a new alkaline
battery prior to leaving.
Span Setting
Your thermostat is set at the factory to cycle at 2°F (1°C) above and
below the set temperature. (Span = 2) This setting has been
designed to provide a comfortable room temperature under most
conditions. However, if you find your system cycling too fast or too
slow, the Span can be adjusted to modify the cycle time.
Press and hold BOTH and keys for three seconds.
SPAN will be displayed on the LCD.
Press to raise the Span to 3. This setting increases cycle
time by allowing your system to run longer cycles.
Press to lower the Span to 1. This setting decreases the
cycle time by causing your system to run shorter cycles.
The Span settings remain the same for both HEAT and COOL, and
can be changed in any System Switch position. Any loss of 24vac
and/or battery power will default the Span back to the factory default
setting of 2.

The installer should be an experienced and trained
HVAC contractor. Failure to read and follow
instructions carefully before installation or
operation could damage this control or cause
property damage. Test the finished installation for
proper operation.
