Getting started

The TJ-610B thermostat is designed to work on most 24V low voltage heating and cooling systems such as gas and oil furnaces, heat pumps, and single-stage systems

Professional installation recommended for:

• Dual fuel systems (heat pump with furnace)
• Separate humidifiers and dehumidifiers

Turn Power Off

Please turn off the furnace’s main power at the switch box before beginning the installation process

Remove the Old Thermostat
Before removing the wires from the thermostat or wall plate, take a photo of all wires for reference, then label each wire according to the terminal codes. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat one by one. Do not let wires fall back into the wall. Remember, the power to your HVAC system must be turned off.

Connect the New Wall Plate
Insert all wires vertically from the open socket into the proper terminal. Ensure each wire is inserted into the matching terminal (refer to the photo taken previously if needed). Use the supplied flathead screwdriver to fasten each wire. Pull wires gently to ensure wires are securely fastened. When all wire connections have been completed, place any surplus wirage back inside the wall. *For the heat pump system, if the old thermostat has separate wires for Aux-Heating and Emergency-Heating, twist the wires together and connect them to the W/E terminal.

The following are typical wiring diagrams for common systems

Conventional Heating/Cooling system with C wire
You may substitute the C wire with a spare wire if one is available.

Conventional system without the C or spare wire
(also commonly called a 4-wire system)

• At the thermostat, connect C with the G wire;
• At the furnace’s wiring terminal, move the G wire to the C terminal, then use the included jumper wire to connect G with Y

Heat Pump with or without Emergency Heating

Heat only 3-Wire system

Cool only 3-Wire system

Mount the New Wall Plate

Use the enclosed screws and anchors to mount the new wall plate. In most cases, you can utilize the same mounting position of your old thermostat. Be sure to check the alignment of your wall plate pre and post installation of the thermostat unit.

Attach T J-610 to the Wall

Power On and Enjoy!
Ensure the C-wire (if used) is properly connected to the furnace and thermostat. Properly secure and lock the furnace door into place. Switch the power back on for the heating/cooling system at the main switch box. If you have done everything correctly, your thermostat should power on and prompt you to start the setup. If you are having trouble, please refer to our help guide for additional support. Thank you for choosing Vine Smart Home. Enjoy the savings and comfort of owning one of our smart thermostats!
