TABLE 1—SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY FOR NON-BATTERY POWERED THERMOSTATS.
aIf thermostat is not compatible with the system being controlled, the system will not operate. No hazard exists. The
thermostat will not be damaged unless it is used to directly control a line voltage system. For proper system operation, a
Honeywell R841 or R8239D1015 Isolating Relay must be added to the thermostat control circuit.
bConsult manufacturer for installation requirements.
Preparation
Check thermostat and subbase (if used) suitability for the
heating, cooling, or heating/cooling system. Refer to Table 1.
Assemble tools required: flat-bladed screwdriver, hand
or power drill with 3/16-in. drill bit, wire cutter/stripper or
sharp knife, bubble level or plumb bob and line.
Assure power is off to the heating, cooling, or heating/
cooling system at the main fuse panel. Most buildings have
a separate switch box or circuit breaker for disconnecting
power to the heating and cooling (if applicable) equipment.
Thisthermostatiscompatiblewithallheating,coolingor
heating/cooling systems when thermostat is powered by
batteries. If thermostat is not powered by batteries, refer to
Table 1 for thermostat and system compatibility information.

Installation
WHEN INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT…
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could cause a hazardous condition.
2. Installer must be a trained experienced service technician.
3. After installation is complete, check out product op-
eration as provided in these instructions.
IMPORTANT: An incorrectly leveled subbase will cause
the temperature control to deviate from setpoint. It is
not a calibration problem.
CAUTION
1. Disconnect power supply to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage.
2. To prevent interference with the thermostat link-
age, keep wire length to a minimum and run wires
as close as possible to the subbase.
3. Do not overtighten thermostat captive mounting
screwsbecause damage to subbase threads can result.
4. Do not short across coil terminals on relay. This
can burn out the thermostat heat anticipator.
LOCATION
Locate thermostat about 5 ft [1.5m] above the floor in an
area with good air circulation at average temperature.
Donotmountthe thermostatwhereitmaybeaffectedby:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from the sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.
Run wires from the heating, cooling or heating/cooling
equipment to the new thermostat location.
Refer to the Typical Wiring Diagrams section to deter-
mine the number of wires required for your application.
UNPACK THERMOSTAT
Handle your new thermostat carefully; rough handling
may interfere with its accuracy. Before unpacking, refer to
Fig. 1.
Remove and discard the shipping wrap.
IMPORTANT: Save package of screws and instructions
for the homeowner.

Calibration
THERMOMETER
The thermometer in your thermostat was accurately cali-
brated at the factory. The thermometer should need adjust-
mentonlyifithasbeendroppedorshiftedduetomishandling.
If the setpoint lever and the thermometer reading do not
agree:
1. Remove the thermostat cover by pulling up from the
bottom of cover until it clears the mounting slots.
2. Set the thermostat cover on a table near an accurate
thermometer.
3. Allow five minutes for cover thermometer to sense
area temperature; compare the readings. Be careful not to
touch thermometer or breathe on it.
4. If the readings are the same, replace cover and put the
system into operation.
5. Ifthereadingsare different, insert asmallscrewdriver
in the thermometer and turn it until the thermometers have
the same reading (Fig. 13).
6. Replace thermostat cover and put the system into
operation.
NOTE: Radiant heat from your hands will offset the ther-
mometerreading. Aftermakingeachadjustment,waitfive
or ten minutes for the thermometer to stabilize before
comparing.
THERMOSTAT
This thermostat was calibrated at the factory and should
not need recalibration in the field. If recalibration seems
necessary, first be sure wallplate or subbase is accurately
leveled. Then check thermometer calibration.
To check thermostat calibration, allow several hours of
operation after installation. Then read thermometer and
remove cover. Push temperature levers together to a setting
below room temperature. Slowly move them up the scale
together until the mercury slides across the tube. If the
thermometer reading and the high temperature lever posi-
tion are approximately the same at the instant the mercury
moves to the other end, no recalibration is needed.
Fig. 13—Thermometer calibration.

INCREASE
If calibration is necessary, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the cover.
2. Place open-end calibration wrench, part no. 104994A
(orderedseparately),on the hex nut under the bimetallic coil
controlledby theredlever(Fig.14).Holdlever soitdoesnot
move, and gently turn the wrench clockwise until the
mercury rests securely in the right end of the tube.
3. Put the thermostat cover on and wait ten minutes.
4. Read the thermometer. Then remove the cover. Mov-
ing both levers, place the HIGH lever at the thermometer
reading. Hold lever so it does not move, and gently turn the
wrench counterclockwise until the mercury just slides
totheleftendofthetubebutnofarther.Trytodothisquickly
so the heat from your hands does not affect the thermostat.
5. Repeat this procedure for the blue lever.
