Auto-Changeover: A mode in which the thermostat will turn on the
heating or cooling based on room temperature demand.
Cool Setpoint: The warmest temperature that the space should rise
to before cooling is turned on (without regard to deadband).
Deadband: The number of degrees the thermostat will wait, once a
setpoint has been reached, before energizing heating or cooling.
Differential: The forced temperature difference between the heat set-
point and the cool setpoint.
Heat Setpoint: The coolest temperature that the space should drop
to before heating is turned on (without regard to deadband).
Icon: The word or symbol that appears on the thermostat display.
Mode: The current operating condition of the thermostat (i.e. Off,
Heat, Cool, Auto, Program On).
Non-Programmable Thermostat: A thermostat that does not have
the capability of running Time Period Programming.
Programmable Thermostat: A thermostat that has the capability of
running Time Period Programming.
Temperature Swing: Same as Deadband.
Time Period Programming: A program that allows the thermostat to

Assemble tools: Flat blade screwdriver, wire cutters and wire
strippers.
Carefully unpack the thermostat. Save the screws, any brack-
ets, and instructions.
Make sure your Heater/Air Conditioner is working properly
before beginning installation of the thermostat.
Turn off the power to the Heating/Air Conditioning system at
the main fuse panel. Most residential systems have a separate
breaker for disconnecting power to the furnace.
To install the thermostat properly, please follow these step by
step instructions. If you are unsure about any of these steps,
call a qualified technician for assistance.
Remove the cover of the old thermostat. If it does not come off
easily, check for screws.
Loosen the screws holding the thermostat base or subbase to the
wall and lift away.
Keep the old thermostat for reference purposes, until your new
thermostat is functioning properly.
Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat. Tape the ends
of the wires as you disconnect them, and mark them with the
letter of the terminal for easy reconnection to the new thermo-
stat.
Remove & Replace the Old Thermostat
