Pull wires through the large wiring hole in the subbase.  
Loosely fasten the subbase to the wall with the three  
screws. Do not completely tighten the screws.  
Carefully level the subbase (Fig. 3), and firmly tighten  
the screws.  
LOCATION  
Locate thermostat about 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in an  
area with good air circulation at average temperature. Do  
not mount the thermostat where it may be affected by—  
drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.

Use a horizontally mounted outlet box if possible. If a  
vertical outlet box is used, the subbase must be mounted on  
a 202689A Cover Plate Assembly (ordered separately).  
Follow the instructions provided with the cover plate as-  
sembly.

SET TIMER  
Adjust the timer by moving the knob clockwise  
Do NOT reverse the knob.  
When time is correctly set, the time indicator arrow  
(Fig. 8) must point to the corresponding daytime (light) or  
nighttime (dark) portion of the program dial.  
Note the tabs on the top inside edge of the thermostat  
base. These tabs fit the slots molded into the top of the  
subbase.  
.
Hang thermostat base on subbase.  
Insert the two captive mounting screws located in the  
bottom corners of the base (Fig. 6).  
Firmly tighten the screws.

SET TEMPERATURE CONTROL LEVERS  
The two levers on top of thermostat control the low and  
high temperatures for energy savings and comfort control  
(
Fig. 10). The lever on the left (blue mark) controls the  
lower temperature. The lever on the right (red mark) con-  
trols the higher temperature.  
We recommend pushing the levers together at an appro-  
priate temperature for either heat or cool until the occupant  
programs the thermostat and makes the final temperature  
selections.

SET SUBBASE SWITCHES  
The subbase system switch controls system operation as  
follows:  
NOTE: To avoid compressor damage, do not operate the  
system if outdoor temperature is below 50°F (10°C).  
Refer to manufacturer recommendations.  
HEAT: Heating system is controlled by the thermostat.  
Cooling system is off.  
COOL: Cooling system is controlled by the thermostat.  
Heating system is off.  
OFF: Both the heating and cooling systems are off. If the  
Move both temperature setting levers together at least

fan switch is in the AUTO position, the fan is also off.  
Place the fan switch to ON. The fan should run continu-  
ously with the system switch in any position.  
Place the system switch to OFF. Move both temperature  
setting levers to various positions. The heating and cooling  
systems should not operate.  
Operate the entire system for at least one complete cycle  
with the system switch at COOL and one complete cycle  
with the switch at HEAT.  
If thermostat fails any test, refer to the Troubleshooting  
Guide in the Owner’s Manual.  
Reset both temperature setting levers to the desired  
temperatures.  
The subbase fan switch controls fan operation as follows:  
ON: Fan operates continuously.  
AUTO: Fan operates with the cooling equipment as  
controlled by the thermostat or with the heating equip-  
ment as controlled by the plenum switch. In electric  
heat, heat pump and fan coil systems, the fan is  
controlled by the thermostat in heating and cooling.  
To switch positions, use thumb or index finger to slide  
lever to the desired position. Switch lever must stop in  
detent over the desired function indicator mark for proper  
circuit operation.  
Leave Owner’s Manual and Assistance Information in a  
convenient place for the building occupant or provide with  
other appliance manuals.  
CHECK OUT THERMOSTAT OPERATION  
CAUTION  
TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAMS  
Do NOT check operation by shorting across  
terminals of relay or valve coil; this will burn  
out the thermostat heat anticipator.  
For wiring, follow the hookup diagram supplied with  
your heating, cooling or heating/cooling equipment. If not  
available, use Fig. 11 as a guide.  
REMEMBER: Your wiring must follow local electrical  
codes and ordinances.
