1. Turn the system power OFF from the existing thermostat. Turn
the power to the HVAC system OFF at the main power panel
or at the furnace.
(Failure to turn off the power to the existing thermostat before removal
could damage your system.)
2. Remove the existing thermostat cover to access the wires
from the wall.
(Some thermostats may have multiple covers, screws or other locking
devices that must be removed or disengaged. See page 8 for common
examples.)
3. Locate, but do not disconnect the wires.
(If wires are not visible, they may be connected to the back of the wall
plate. Some models may have doors that open to expose the wires and
mounting screws.)

WIRE LABELS

4. Using the provided stickers, label each wire according to the
Wire Labels chart.
(If the terminals are not labeled, contact a qualified HVAC
technician.)
Note: Wire colors do not always comply with
standards, so wire color should be ignored. Refer
to the existing terminal designation for proper
identification.
*If wires marked Y & C are both present, C may be a Common
wire and should not be used. If you have a wire marked C, do not
connect it to any terminal. This wire is used only for non-battery
powered thermostats.
5. Do not let the wires slip back into the wall during
disconnection. You may want to secure the wires to the
wall as you disconnect them. After all wires are labeled,
disconnect each wire and remove the existing wall plate.
(Any unused wires should be capped with an approved electrical connector,
such as electrical tape.)

INSTALLING THE THERMOSTAT
INSTALLING THE WALL PLATE
1. Remove the wall plate from the new thermostat by pressing
the release tab on the bottom of the thermostat.
2. Position the new wall plate on the wall and pull the labeled
wires through the opening.
3. If the existing holes do not match those on the Hunter wall
plate, or if there are no existing holes, visually level the wall
plate and mark the wall for two holes.

marked.
5. Tap the plastic anchors into the holes until they are flush with
the wall. (Do not use plastic anchors if you encounter a stud in the wall.)
6. Reposition the wall plate on the wall, pulling the wires
through the opening. Insert the mounting screws through the
wall plate and into the anchors. Verify that the wall plate is
visually level and securely tighten both screws.

CONNECTING THE WIRES
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the terminal
screws.
Note: A jumper wire has been provided, connecting the RC
and RH terminals for systems that do not provide both an RH
and RC wire. If you have both an RH and RC wire, remove this
jumper. If you do not have both an RH and RC wire, leave the
jumper in place.
2. Match and connect the wires from the wall to the terminals
as shown. Wires should be inserted behind the black terminal
shields. Tighten each screw after the connection has been
made.
(The ends of any extra wires should be individually wrapped in electrical
tape and carefully pushed back into the wall.)
3. Push any excess wire length back into the wall to prevent
interference.

ATTACHING THE THERMOSTAT
Lift the thermostat cover and set the SYSTEM switch to OFF and
the FAN switch to AUTO.
1. Fan option - Locate the HE/HG switch on the back of the
thermostat. Set the switch to HG (default) for gas furnace
and oil burners. Set the switch to HE for electric furnaces. (The
switch has no effect when the system is set to cooling mode.)
2. Recovery - Locate the Auto Recovery switch on the back of
the thermostat. If you wish to use the Energy Star compliant
Auto Recovery feature, verify that the switch is in the ENABLE
position. If you do not wish to use this feature, simply change
the switch to the DISABLE position. See pages 44-45 for more
information.
3. System type - Locate the System Type switch on the
back of the thermostat. Select either STD (Standard) or HP
(Heat Pump) to match your system.
