Q539A, H and J Subbases  
Installation Instruction for the Trained Service Technician.  
Application  
Q539 Subbases provide cooling anticipators, and mounting for T87F Thermostats. Q539 Subbases also provide system  
and fan switching for heating, cooling, and heating-cooling thermostats. For subbase specifications, refer to Tables 1 and 2.

This control contains mercury in a sealed tube. Do not  
place control in the trash at the end of its useful life.  
If this control is replacing a control that contains mer-  
cury in a sealed tube, do not place your old control in the  
trash.  
Contact your local waste management authority for  
instructions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of  
this control, or of an old control containing mercury in a  
sealed tube.

1. In replacement applications, check the existing sub-  
base wires for cracked or frayed insulation. Replace any  
wires in poor condition. If the wire is plastered into the wall,  
make a hole next to the wires and loosen the wires so that the  
wires can be pushed back into the wall later.

NOTE: In heat pump applications, a minimum off-timer  
provides a five-minute time delay before starting com-  
pressor when the thermostat last turned off the compres-  
sor, or when the system first received power. This delay  
prevents compressor short cycling.

FAN  
Move the subbase switch to OFF and the fan switch to  
ON. The fan should run continuously. Move the fan switch  
to AUTO. In this position, fan operation is controlled by the  
heating or cooling system control circuit.  
Operate the entire system one complete cycle with  
switches in each position before leaving installation. Turn  
thermostat dial to the desired setting and set the system and  
fan switches.  
CAUTION  
If outside air or heat exchange medium (water) is  
below 10AC (50AF), do not operate cooling.  
Move the system switch on the Q539 to COOL and the  
fan switch to AUTO. Move the cooling setpoint dial to about  
6
AC (10AF) below room temperature. Cooling equipment  
should start and the fan should run. Change the setpoint to  
about 6AC (10AF) above the room temperature. The cooling  
equipment and fan should shut off.
