• Install two fresh “AAA” alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. Be sure to match the positive (+) ends of batteries with positive (+) battery terminals in the battery compartment. (The thermostat will operate from 2 sizes of “AAA” alkaline batteries or 24VAC power. When operated from 24VAC power, your thermostat will maintain time and continuously display the temperature during a loss of AC power with the batteries installed).
• Replace the cover on the thermostat by snapping it in place.
• Turn on power to the system at the main service panel.

ELECTRIC/GAS JUMPER (Fan Option)

Read the following information before clipping the non-electric heat jumper 1 (See figure 1). If you are unsure of your application, contact a qualified service person. This thermostat is configured from the factory to energize the fan on a call for heat. If your system is an electric heat that REQUIRES the thermostat to turn on the fan on a call for heat, place do not cut Jumper1.If your system does not require the thermostat to energize the fan on a call for heat such as fossil fuel (gas,oil, etc.), forced air system as well as hydraulic heating systems, place cut the jumper1.

BATTERY OPERATION-

The thermostat is powered by 24VAC. Batteries are not required for proper operation, but with two“AAA” batteries installed, your thermostat will maintain time and continuously display the temperature during a loss of power

WIRING DIAGRAMS-

CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION 
If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly, contact a qualified service person. Turn on the power to the system

FAN OPERATION
Move the system switch to the OFF position. If your system does not have a“G” (Fan)terminal connection, skip to the Heating System. 1. Move the fan switch to the ON position. The blower should begin to operate. 2. Move the fan switch to the AUTO – position. The blower should stop immediately.
