Step 1.1: Download the LUX Products App to your mobile
device and create an account.
Step 1.2: Now set your phone aside and turn off the power at
the circuit breaker to both your heating and cooling systems
before performing any wiring.
Step 1.3: Confirm that your heating and cooling
system is powered down by changing the
temperature on your thermostat.
Hint: Your system should not make any noise and
you should not feel any air exiting your vents.
Step 1.4: Remove the front of your old thermostat from its
base. If you see thick black wires, wire nuts,
or any labels that say 120-240VAC or High
Voltage, your system is not compatible
with CS1. Please call LUX Technical Support
