•Your thermostat is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care.
•Turn off electricity to the appliance before installing or servicing thermostat or any part of the system. Do not turn electricity back on until work is completed.
•Do not short (jumper) across electric terminals at control on furnace or air conditioner to test the system. This will damage the thermostat and void your warranty.
•All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.
•This thermostat is designed for use with 24 volt and millivolt systems. The thermostat should be limited to a maximum of 1.0 amps; higher amperage may cause damage to the thermostat. If you are in doubt, call your utility company.

one unless the conditions listed below suggest otherwise. On new installations, follow the guidelines listed below.
1.Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor, and in a room that is used often.
2.Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiator, register, or fireplace; near hot water pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of a wall.
3.Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an unheated room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.
4.Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that will shorten thermostat life.
5.Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as: in a corner or an alcove; or behind an open door.
6.Do not install the unit until all construction work and painting has been completed.
7.This thermostat does not require leveling.
