Compressor Short Cycle Protection
This thermostat is equipped with automatic com-
pressor protection to prevent potential damage due
to short cycling or extended power outages.
A 5-minute compressor short cycle protection timer
begins when a compressor output is de-energized.
Also, if a power loss occurs, the system will go into
compressor protection mode and display “waiting”
next to either a snowake (compressor cooling), or
ame (compressor heating) in the display.
Internal and External Temperature Sensors
See information starting on page 9 for sensor wir-
ing and conguring sensor settings under Installer
Settings menu.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can cause property
damage, personal injury or loss of life.
Installation and service must be performed
by a licensed professional HVAC installer (or
equivalent) or service agency.

WARNING
Always turn o power at the main power source by
switching the circuit breaker to the OFF position
before installing or removing this thermostat.
All wiring must conform to local and national
building and electrical codes and ordinances.
CAUTION
This is a 24VAC low-voltage thermostat. Do not
install on voltages higher than 30VAC.
Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas
valve or at the system control to test installation.
This will damage the thermostat and void the
warranty.
Installation
Before beginning installation, note the type of equip-
ment, number of stages, and any accessories being
installed. This thermostat is a 24VAC low-voltage
thermostat and requires a common wire to the ther-
mostat to operate.
DO
• Shut o all power to system before installing.
• Read this entire document, noting which
instructions pertain to your equipment and
system requirements.
• Make sure that all wiring conforms to local
and national building and electrical codes and
ordinances.
• Use thermostat wire between the thermostat and
any optional remote temperature sensor (may
be separate wire pair or two wires of a multi-wire
cable for outdoor temperature sensor).
• Ensure load from any thermostat connection is
less than 1 AMP.
DO NOT
• Install on voltages higher than 30VAC.
• Short (jumper) across terminals on the gas
valve or at the system control to test installation.
This will damage the thermostat and void the
warranty.
• Install on outside walls or in direct sunlight.
• Exceed thermostat wire run length greater
than 300 feet (91m).

Hardware Installation
1. Unpacked the thermostat and open the case
with a thin-blade screwdriver. Place between
wall base and unit and twist to separate unit
from base.
2. Select a location for the thermostat about 5 feet
(1.5m) above the oor in an area with good air
circulation at average temperature.
3. Do not install the thermostat where it can be
aected by:
• Drafts or dead spots behind doors and in
corners.
• Not close to entrance or automatic doors.
• Not close to heat generating equipment
such as kitchen equipment.
• Not in an enclose environment unless a
remote indoor sensor is used.
• Hot or cold air from ducts.
• Radiant heat from sun or appliances.
• Concealed pipes and chimneys.
• Unheated (uncooled) areas such as an
outside wall behind the thermostat.
