 Disconnect the power supply to prevent electrical shock  
or equipment damage. All wiring must comply with local  
electrical codes and ordinances.  
IMPORTANT  
 Run the line voltage wiring to the thermostat location.  
 Do not remove the T4098 Thermostat Cover. Using wire  
connectors approved for No. 12 wires, make line  
voltage connections directly to the leadwires on the  
thermostat. See Figs. 2 and 3 for typical wiring  
connections.  
 Prebend and push the solid wires into the outlet box.  
 While holding the thermostat base with one hand, use  
the other hand to remove the thermostat cover by  
grasping the bottom cover edge and pulling outward  
away from the thermostat base.  
If locking cover feature is desired, insert the locking  
cover clip in the thermostat base before mounting  
the thermostat on the wall. See Fig. 7.  
Replacement Applications  
 Disconnect power to thermostat to prevent electrical  
shock or equipment damage. All wiring must comply  
with local electrical codes and ordinances.  
 Remove the old thermostat from the wall; be careful not  
to damage the wiring insulation.  
 Mount the thermostat on the outlet box as shown in  
Fig. 4. Secure the thermostat by tightening the two  
mounting screws.  
 Check the old wire insulation for cracks, nicks or fraying.  
Apply approved electrical tape to insulate wires or  
replace wires as necessary.  
 Do not remove T4098 Thermostat Cover. Using wire  
connectors approved for No. 12 wires, make line  
voltage connections directly to the leadwires on the  
thermostat. See Figs. 2 and 3 for typical wiring  
connections.  
 Prebend and push the solid wires into the outlet box.  
 While holding the thermostat base with one hand, use  
the other hand to remove the thermostat cover by  
grasping the bottom cover edge and pulling outward  
away from the thermostat base.  
SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS  
Calibration  
The T4098 Thermostats are calibrated at the factory using  
precise instruments under closely controlled conditions.  
Recalibration should not be necessary. Allow the thermostat  
to operate for several hours before checking the calibration.  
The T4098 Thermostat vapor-filled dual diaphragm sensing  
element is affected by barometric pressure and altitude.  
Temperature deviations of 1°F (0.5°C) are normal. If the  
thermostat is mounted in a suitable location (as instructed in  
the Location section) and still appears out of calibration,  
check calibration as follows.  
 Mount the thermostat on the outlet box as shown in  
Fig. 4. Secure the thermostat by tightening the two  
mounting screws.

 No recalibration is necessary if the thermostat switch  
makes with the thermostat setting at the same  
temperature as indicated on the thermometer.  
 If the thermostat setting differs from the thermometer,  
record the temperature difference and recalibrate as  
instructed in the Recalibration Procedure section.

Recalibration Procedure  
 Note the temperature difference between the

 Remove the thermostat cover.  
SETTING DIAL  
 With the thermostat cover removed, note the location of  
the temperature setting knob.  
 Remove the clear plastic knurled setting knob. See  
Fig. 5.  
 Turn the temperature setting dial the required number  
of degrees for calibration (so thermostat temperature  
setting and thermometer are the same).  
 Replace the knob on the setting dial.

the back of thermostat base as shown in Fig. 7.  
 Using an Allen wrench, insert the locking cover screw  
into the clip. Secure the screw in place until it is flush  
with the thermostat base.

LOCKING  
The T4098 Thermostat provides precise temperature control  
of resistance-rated electric baseboard heating equipment with  
minimum droop. The T4098 controls room temperature within

2°F (1°C), regardless of the load of the baseboard heater.  
ALLEN WRENCH  
The vapor-filled dual diaphragm sensing element is more  
sensitive to temperature changes than a bimetal sensor. This  
accuracy, usually associated with low voltage thermostats, is  
now available for line voltage control.  
M5799  
Fig. 7. Locking cover.  
Electric heat thermostats are often affected by the heat  
generated in the control. Temperature control points may vary  
or droop 2° to 4°F (1° to 3°C) depending on the load demand;  
however, temperature settings are adjusted to provide offset.  
The T4098 provides precise control with minimum droop. This  
allows better control of room temperatures from day-to-night  
and season-to-season while saving energy.
