Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of a Smart
programmable thermostat. When registered to
Total Connect Comfort, you can remotely monitor
and control the heating and cooling system in your
home or business—you can stay connected to your
comfort system wherever you go.
Total Connect Comfort is the perfect solution
if you travel frequently, own a vacation home, a
business or manage an Investment property or if
you are simply looking for peace of mind.
This thermostat works with common 24 volt systems such as forced air, hydronic,
heat pump, oil, gas, and electric. It will not work with millivolt systems, such as a gas
fireplace, or with 120/240 volt systems such as baseboard electric heat.
MERCURY NOTICE: Do not place your old thermostat in the trash if it contains
mercury in a sealed tube. Contact the Thermostat Recycling Corporation at
www.thermostat-recycle.org or 18002388192 for information on how and
where to properly and safely dispose of your old thermostat.
NOTICE: To avoid possible compressor damage, do not run air conditioner if the
outside temperature drops below 50°F (10°C).

Installing your thermostat
Do you see a wire connected to the C terminal?
If yes, skip to step 4. If you do not see a C wire, proceed with the
options below:
Option A - Finding the CWire:
There might be an extra wire pushed into the wall or wrapped around
the wire bundle. Gently pull the wire bundle out of the wall to check
for unused wires.
If you have an unused wire, connect that wire to the C terminal on
your new thermostat in step 7A or 7B.
Connect the other end of the unused wire to the C terminal on your heating/cooling system
(or the zone panel if your home uses more than one thermostat to control temperature).
Be sure any other wire(s) connected to the C terminal stay securely connected when you
re-tighten the terminal.
Not all heating/cooling equipment use the C label for the 24 VAC common wire. If your
heating/cooling equipment does not have a C terminal, check the system manual or
contact the manufacturer to find out which terminal is the 24 VAC common.
Complete installation by following the remaining steps in this guide.
Option B - Using the CWire Power Adapter:
If you do not have an unused wire in the wall, see the CWire Power Adapter FREE OFFER
included in the thermostat box. Follow the instructions that come with the CWire Power
Adapter and then return to this page. Complete the installation by following the remaining
steps in this guide.
Important! The thermostat requires a C wire to operate. The C, or common, wire brings 24
VAC power to the thermostat. Many older mechanical or battery operated thermostats do not
require a C wire.
