Step 1. Prepare for Installation

1. Check that the following items are included:
   Note: If any of the items shown above are missing, call Honeywell Customer Care at 1-800-468-1502 before returning the thermostat to the store.
2. Check that you have everything required for the installation:
   • Two AAA alkaline batteries
   • No. 2 Phillips screwdriver and standard pocket screwdriver
   • Drill
   • Drill bit- use 3/16 in. for drywall; use 7/32 in. for plaster
   • Level (optional)
   • Hammer
   • Pencil
   • Electrical tape

Step 2. Follow Important Instructions

1. Do not connect the wires to the new thermostat based on wire color because damage can occur to the heating and/or cooling system. These Installation Instructions explain later how to use the enclosed wire labels to correctly mark the wires connected to your old thermostat.

Step 3. Remove Old Thermostat

1. Turn off power at the heating and/or cooling system or fuse/circuit breaker panel.
2. Remove the cover from the old thermostat.
3. Remove the old thermostat from the wall or wallplate. Do not remove the wires.

MERCURY NOTICE If you are replacing a thermostat that contains mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old thermostat in the trash.
Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of an old thermostat containing mercury in a sealed tube.

Step 4. Follow Special Instructions

1. If you have C and/or C1 wire(s) connected to your old thermostat, do not connect them to your new thermostat.
2. Disconnect the C and/or C1 wire(s). Make sure they do not touch each other or any other wires.
3. Wrap the bare end of each C and/or C1 wire(s) with electrical tape.
4. Most installations have two to five wires connected to the old thermostat. If six or more wires are connected to your old thermostat (not counting the C or C1 wires), do not continue the installation. You may have purchased the wrong thermostat.
   Visit www.honeywell.com/yourhome or call Honeywell Customer Care at 1-800-468-1502 before returning the thermostat to the store.
5. If you find any wires not connected to your old thermostat, do not connect them to your new thermostat.
6. Wrap the end of the wires that are not connected with electrical tape.

Step 5. Label Old Thermostat Wires

1. As you disconnect each wire, use the enclosed wire labels to wrap a wire label around each wire that matches the letter designation. Do not allow the wires to fall into the wall opening after the wires are disconnected.
2. Remove any remaining parts of the old thermostat from the wall.
   When connecting the wires to the new thermostat, refer to the wire labels. Do not connect wires to your new thermostat based on the color of the wire.

Step 6. Mount New Wallplate to Wall

1. Separate the wallplate from the thermostat as shown.
2. Pass the labeled wires through the wire hole on the wallplate.
3. Position the wallplate on the wall with the arrow pointing up. Level the wallplate (for appearance only) and mark the two mounting holes with a pencil.
4. Move the wallplate aside and drill holes at the locations marked on the wall. Drill 3/16 in. holes for drywall or 7/32 in. holes for plaster.
5. Tap the wall anchors into the drilled holes until even with the wall surface.
6. Position the wallplate over the wall anchors.
7. Insert the mounting screws into the wall anchors. Check leveling, if desired, and tighten the mounting screws.

Step 7. Connect Wires to New Wallplate

1. Match the labeled wires to the letter designations on the wallplate.
2. If wires are to be connected to both Rc and R, loosen the Rc and R screw terminals and remove the metal jumper.
3. If only one of the terminals, Rc or R, is to be connected, leave metal jumper in place.
4. Loosen the screw terminals. Insert the labeled wires into the holes on the right side of the terminal block that match the letter designations. Tighten the screw terminals.
5. If any of the labeled wires do not match the letter designations, see next page for wire connections.
6. Compare letter designations on your old and new thermostats.
   Do not connect more than one wire to each terminal. Be sure to read the notes referenced in the numbered triangles above. These numbered notes appear on the next page.
   NOTES
   1. If wires will be connected to both RC and R on the new thermostat, remove metal jumper between RC and R. Leave metal jumper in place if only one of the terminals, RC or R, will be connected on the new thermostat.
   2. If wires were connected to both R and RH terminals on the old thermostat, remove metal jumper between RC and R on the new thermostat. Connect the old R to the new RC and the old RH to the new R.
   3. Do not connect both O and B when wiring to a heat pump. Connect O to O/B W. Wrap the bare end of the B wire with electrical tape and do not use.
   4. Transformer common. Wrap the bare end of the wire with electrical tape and do not use.
7. Push excess wire back into the wall opening. Keep wires in the shaded area.

Step 8. Install Batteries

1. Install two fresh AAA alkaline batteries on the back of the thermostat as marked on the battery holder.
   After the thermostat is mounted on the wallplate, the thermostat does not require removal from the wallplate to replace the batteries. Refer to the enclosed Operating Instructions (69-1722) for more information on the removable battery holder.

Step 9. Attach New Thermostat to Wallplate

1. Align the four tabs on the wallplate with the four slots on the back of the thermostat.
2. Push the thermostat straight onto the wallplate until it snaps into place.
3. Turn on the power at the heating and/or cooling system or fuse/circuit breaker panel.
   If the wires interfere with mounting the thermostat to the wallplate, push the excess wire back into the wall opening.

Step 10. Configure Installer Setup

1. Use the Installer Setup Menu to match your new thermostat to your heating and/or cooling system. Follow the steps in this section to set up your thermostat.
