Description

This programmable thermostat can be used to control an electric

heating system such as an electric baseboard heater, a radiant ceil-

ing, a radiant floor, a convector or a fan-forced heater.

The thermostat cannot be used with:

•

a resistive load over 16.7 A

a resistive load under 2 A

a system driven by a contactor or relay (inductive load)

a central heating system

-wire installation

SUPPLIED PARTS:

•

One (1) thermostat

Two (2) 6-32 screws

Two (2) solderless connectors

Installation

TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN

POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THE INSTAL-

LATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN ELECTRICIAN.

p Push any excess wire back into the electrical box.

ꢀ

All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical

code.

Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when con-

necting with aluminum conductors.

ꢀ

Install the thermostat onto an electrical box.

Install the thermostat about 5 feet high, on an inside wall facing

the heater.

ꢀ

Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a

staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a

door), or direct sunlight.

NOTE: If necessary, before re-installing the front component, config-

ure the thermostat (see section 3).

ꢀ

Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or

stove pipes.

q Return power to heating system.

The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be con-

nected to the load or to the power supply.

However, if the power failure exceeds 4 hours, the thermostat’s clock

must be re-adjusted and, if you are using the automatic Daylight Sav-

ings Time changeover function, it must be re-enabled. When power

returns, the thermostat will return to the mode of operation active

prior to the power failure.
