Alternate wiring (heat pump system only)
Leave metal jumper in place, connecting R& Rc terminals.
If your old thermostat had both Vand VR wires, stop now and
contact a qualified contractor for help.
If your old thermostat had separate Oand Bwires, attach the
Bwire to the Cterminal. If another wire is attached to the C
terminal, stop now and contact a qualified contractor for help.
If your old thermostat had Y1, W1 and W2 wires, stop now and
contact a qualified contractor for help.
If Lterminal is used, Cterminal wire must be connected
(contact a contractor if there is no Cwire).
If Eand Aux terminals do not each have a wire connected, use
a small piece of wire to connect them to each other.
Step 1
Press and release the left button.
Step 2
Press and hold the center button until the
screen changes (approximately 5 seconds).
Use the Setup and Navigation steps in 12a to set Display Preferences.

Alternate wiring (conventional systems)
Remove metal jumper connecting Rand Rc only if
you must connect both Rand Rc wires.
If your old thermostat had both Rand RH wires,
remove metal jumper. Connect the Rwire to the Rc
terminal, and the RH wire to the Rterminal.
If your old thermostat had only 1 Cor C1 wire,
connect it to the Cterminal. If your old thermostat
had 2 Cor C1 wires, wrap each separately with
electrical tape and do not connect them.
Conventional system
Connect wires: Heat Pump
1. Match each labeled wire with same letter on new
thermostat.
2. Use a screwdriver to loosen screws, insert wires into
hole, then tighten screws.
3. If Eand Aux do not each have a wire connected, use a
small piece of wire to connect them to each other.
4. Push any excess wire back into the wall opening.
Labels don’t match?
If labels do not match letters on thermostat, see Alternate
wiring (heat pump system only).

The number indicates how frequently the system cycles on and off to maintain the set temperature.
A higher number means the system is on and off for shorter amounts of time, a lower number means
longer on and off times. When these settings are set to match the system type, the thermostat controls
temperature more accurately.
