Thermostats
APPLICATION
The T8602 Chronotherm ®IV Deluxe Programmable Thermostat provides electronic control of 24 Vac single-stage
heating and cooling systems or 750 mV heating system. Refer to Table 1 for a general description of the thermostat. All
T8602 thermostats are powered by batteries.
Table 1. Description of T8602 Thermostats.
MERCURY NOTICE
If this control is replacing a control that contains
mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old
control in the trash. Dispose of properly.
Contact your local waste management authority
for instructions regarding recycling and the
proper disposal of the old control.
INSTALLATION
When Installing this Product...
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
the instructions can damage the product or cause
a hazardous condition.
2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on
the product to make sure the product is suitable for
your application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After completing installation, use these instructions
to check out the product operation.
Location
Install the thermostat about 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in
an area with good air circulation at average temperature.
See Fig. 1.
Do not install the thermostat where it can be affected by:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.
Wallplate Installation
The thermostat can be mounted horizontally on the wall
or on a 2 in. x 4 in. (50.8 mm x 101.6 mm) wiring box.
Position wallplate horizontally on the wall or on a
2 in. x 4 in. (50.8 mm x 101.6 mm) wiring box.

Fig. 1. Typical location of thermostat.
1. Position and level the wallplate (for appearance
only). The thermostat functions correctly even
when not level.
2. Use a pencil to mark the mounting holes.
See Fig. 2.
3. Remove the wallplate from the wall and drill two
3/16 inch (76 mm) holes in the wall (if drywall) as
marked. For firmer material such as plaster, drill
two 7/32 inch (5.56 mm) holes. Gently tap anchors
(provided) into drilled holes until flush with wall.
4. Position the wallplate over the holes, pulling wires
through the wiring opening.
5. Loosely insert the mounting screws into the holes.
6. Tighten mounting screws.
Fig. 2. Mounting the wallplate.
WIRING
All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and
ordinances. Refer to Fig. 3 and 6 for typical hookup. A
letter code is located near each terminal for identification.
CAUTION
Electrical Hazard.
Can cause electric shock or equipment
damage.
Disconnect power before wiring.
1. Loosen the terminal screws on the wallplate and
connect the system wires. See Fig. 7.
IMPORTANT
Use 18 gauge, color-coded thermostat cable for
proper wiring.
2. Securely tighten each terminal screw.
3. Push excess wire back into the hole.
4. Plug the hole with nonflammable insulation to
prevent drafts from affecting the thermostat.

Using Thermostat Keys
The thermostat keys are used to:
• set current day and time,
• program times and setpoints for heating and cooling,
• temporarily override program temperatures,
• display present setting,
• configure Installer Setup,
• check Self-Test,
• display outdoor temperature (select models),
See Fig. 9 for location of the keys.
NOTE: Always press the keys with your fingertip or
similar blunt tool. Sharp instruments like a pen
or pencil point can damage the keyboard.
Fig. 9. T8602D key locations and descriptions.

FAN OPERATION SWITCH
The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled FUEL
SWITCH in Fig. 11 is factory set in the F position. This is
the correct setting for most systems. If your system is an
electric heat system, set the switch to E. The E setting
allows the fan to turn on immediately with the heating or
cooling in a system where the G terminal is connected.
Fig. 11. Fan operation switch.
INSTALLER SETUP
NOTE: For most applications, the thermostat factory-
settings do not require changing. Review
factory settings in Table 3 and if no changes are
necessary, go to the Installer Self-Test section.
The Installer Setup is used to customize the thermostat
to specific systems. Some of the options include
temperature display and outdoor temperature display.
Installer Setup numbers are listed in Table 3. The table
includes all the configuration options and the factory
settings for the T8602.
A combination of key presses are required to use the
Installer Setup feature:
— To enter the installer setup, press and hold the
information ikey with the increase and
decrease keys until the first number is displayed.
All display segments appear for approximately three
seconds before the number is displayed. See Fig. 12
and 13.
— To advance to the next Installer Setup, press the
Time ∆key.
— To change a setting, use the increase or
decrease  key.
— To scroll the Installer Setup numbers backward, press
the Time ∇key.
— To exit the Installer Setup, press Run Program.

IMPORTANT
Only configurable numbers are shown on the
device. Example: If thermostat does not have a
system key, Installer Setup Number 12 will not
be displayed. Review Table 3 factory-settings
and mark any desired changes in the Actual
Setting column. When Installer Setup is com-
plete, review the settings to confirm that they
match the system.
