IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION  
WARNING:  
Always turn off power at the main power source by unscrewing  
fuse or switching circuit breaker to the off position before installing,  
removing, cleaning, or servicing thermostat.  
Read all of the information in this manual before installing or  
programming this thermostat.  
This is a 24V AC low-voltage thermostat. Do not install on voltages  
higher than 30V AC.  
All wiring must conform to local and national building and electrical  
codes and ordinances.  
Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the  
system control to test installation. This will damage the thermostat  
and void the warranty.

After labeling wires, remove wires from terminals.  
Remove existing thermostat base from wall.  
Refer to the following section for instructions on how to  
install thermostat.  
Figure 1  
Installing the Model 8336 Thermostat  
NOTE: For new installations, mount thermostat on inside wall, 4-5 feet  
above the floor. Do not install behind a door, in a corner, near air vents, in  
direct sunlight, or near any heat or steam generating fixtures. Installation  
at these places will affect thermostat operation.  
1. Turn power off to the heating  
and cooling systems.  
2. Place COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM  
In OFF position.

5. Place thermostat against the wall at desired location. Make sure  
wires will feed through opening on base of thermostat.  
6. Mark placement of mounting holes. See Fig. 3.  
Set base aside.  
Mounting Holes  
Batteries NOT Required.

. Drill the marked holes using a 3/16" drill bit. NOTE: Enclosed  
plastic anchors do not require a drilled hole for drywall.  
8. Tap plastic anchors into the wall.  
9. Align base with plastic anchors and feed wires  
through opening.  
10. Secure base to wall with supplied screws.

11. Connect wires to terminal strip. Refer to wiring diagrams on other  
side of this sheet. Make sure wire connections are secure.  
12. Put the °F/°C switch to either °F for Fahrenheit display  
or °C for Celsius display readout.

Changing Temperature Differential  
IMPORTANT: The temperature differential is factory set at 1 (1°). This  
means that whenever the room temperature changes by one half of a  
degree from the temperature setting, the system will turn on. If the  
system turns on too often, increase the temperature differential.

To Test Thermostat  
WARNING: DO NOT SHORT (JUMPER) ACROSS TERMINALS OF GAS  
VALVE OR SYSTEM CONTROL TO TEST OPERATION. THIS WILL DAMAGE  
THE THERMOSTAT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.  
CAUTION: Do not switch system to cool if the temperature is below 50°F (10°C).  
This can damage the air conditioning system and cause personal injury.  
1. Place the COOL-OFF-HEAT-EM  
switch into the COOL position

2
. Press the  
temperature setting is at least  
degrees below the room  
button until the

temperature. The air conditioning  
system should turn on within  
a few seconds.  
NOTE: When in the COOL mode (or HEAT for single stage heat pumps),  
once the thermostat turns off, a built in 5-minute delay prevents the  
system from turning on again. This protects the compressor. No  
additional time delay relay is required.

Changing Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C)  
The thermostat is preset to display the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.  
You may change the display readout to Celsius if desired.  
1
. Move the manual switch marked “F” (Fahrenheit) and “C” (Celsius)  
located at the top center of the circuit board to the desired setting.  
(see page 5)  
2. Press RESET button located lust below the LCD display to register  
the change.  
The display will change to show the temperature in your desired  
temperature scale. To return the thermostat to its original setting,  
repeat steps 1 and 2 above.  
LED Indicators  
The LED indicators are used to indicate system activity. The AUX indicator  
illuminates during a call for second stage heating. The auxiliary stages  
are used to maintain comfort during extremes in weather conditions. If  
the AUX LED is illuminated too frequently during periods of moderate  
temperature, check the differential settings (page 6).  
The CHECK indicator is used to monitor system status. If the CHECK  
indicator is illuminated, call your local HVAC service provider.  
The EMER indicator is illuminated only when the system switch is moved  
to the EM, emergency heat position. The EM position is used only when  
the primary stage of heat is not functioning or requires service.  
Troubleshooting  
Symptom  
Remedy  
Thermostat does not turn  
on system.  
Check Wiring  
(see INSTALLATION).  
Check fuse. Replace with 2 amp  
fuse if fuse has opened.  
Thermostat turns on and  
off too frequently.  
Increase Temperature Differential  
(see DIFFERENTIAL).  
System fan does not  
operate properly.  
Move fan option switch to either  
gas or electric, to match system  
(see INSTALLATION).  
Thermostat does not display  
proper room temperature.  
Check “F” Fahrenheit /”C” Celsius  
switch located at top center of  
circuit board for proper position.  
If a new selection is made, press  
RESET” button located directly  
below LCD display.
