ritetemp 6025 User manual

• Your thermostat is a precise instrument, handle it with care.
• Turn off electricity to the appliance before installing or
servicing thermostat or any part of the system.
• Do not turn electricity back on until work is completed.
• Do not short (jumper) across electric terminals at control on
furnace or air conditioner to test the system. This will damage
the thermostat and void your warranty.
• All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.
• This thermostat is designed for use with 24 volt AC and
millivolt systems. The thermostat should be limited to a
maximum of 1.0 amps; higher amperage may cause damage
to the thermostat.

Tools
To avoid electrical shock and to prevent damage to the furnace, air conditioner,
and thermostat, disconnect the power supply before beginning work.
This can be done at the circuit breaker, or at the appliance.
Replacement installations - mount the new thermostat in place of the old one.
New installations - follow the guidelines listed below.
• Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor, and
in a room that is used often.
• Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct
sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiator register, or fireplace; near hot
water pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of a wall.
• Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an
unheated room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.
• Do not locate in a damp area. This can
lead to corrosion that will shorten thermostat
life.
• Do not locate where air circulation is poor,
such as: in a corner or an alcove; or behind
an open door.
• Do not install the unit until all construction
work and painting has been completed.
• This thermostat does not require leveling.
You will need a small Phillips screwdriver and possibly a drill
with 3/16-in. (4.8mm) bit for wall mounting.

Remove old unit
Prepare wires
IMPORTANT : LABEL ALL WIRES
BEFORE DISCONNECTING THEM!
• Switch electricity to the furnace and
air conditioner OFF; then proceed with the
following steps.
• Remove cover from old thermostat. Most are
snap-on types and simply pull off. Some have
locking screws on the side or front. These must
be loosened. Note the letters printed near the terminals. Attach
labels (enclosed) to each wire for identification.
• Label the wires one at a time. You must label all the wires before
you proceed. With all wires labeled, remove them from the old unit.
• Make sure the wires do not fall back inside the wall. You can wind
them around a pencil to keep them from falling.
• Loosen all screws on the old thermostat and remove it from the wall.
• Fill wall opening with non-combustible insulation to prevent drafts.

Caution
Read instructions carefully before removing any wiring from existing thermostat.
Wires must be labeled before they are removed. THERE IS NO STANDARD
COLOR CODE. When removing wires from their terminals, ignore the color of
the wires since these may not comply with any standard.
• You will need at least 2.6" of wire for each
of your connections to the 6025.
• If you do not have enough wire, splice
additional wire to allow enough slack.
• Fan out wires below the hole as shown.

Before you Connect Wires
Caution Do not allow wires to touch each other or parts on thermostat.
Please follow these guidelines for safe and secure
wire connections.
• Easy Terminals do not require stripping the wire.
• Clip any bare wire from previous installation.
• Take care not to damage the labels for each wire in handling.
• Fan wires out as illustrated with 6025 below the wall opening.
• Wires will dress behind the 6025 and up over the terminal area.
• Use the Step-By-Step diagram as your guide.
• Do not bunch wires behind 6025. Feed slack back into the wall opening.
• Connect labeled wires only to a terminal with corresponding letter.
• Insert the wire in the terminal and tighten
the screw securely.
• You will need to set Configuration
Jumpers per the Step-By-Step
diagram. A needle-nose plier may be
required to modify jumper positions

Determine which step-by-step wiring
diagram below you should use. Make
sure your wires are labeled. This may require you to find the 'other end'
connection for each wire on your heating or air conditioning equipment and
read the label there.
If you have a wire marked "C" it is optional. If you do connect it, the
thermostat will draw power from the C wire. This extends battery life.

Install AAA Batteries
• The 6025 requires 2 AAA batteries to operate .
• Switch MODE switch to OFF and the FAN switch to AUTO.
• Install 2 AAA alkaline batteries according to the polarity noted in
the compartment. LCD segments will go on.
• Press the RESET button (under top cover) to clear transient
program memory. NOTE: Replace the batteries when this LOW
battery indicator appears on the display or once a year.
• Replace top and bottom covers on unit.

Wall anchor
• Hold the 6025 against the wall, with the wires coming over
the top above terminal block. The 6025 will cover the hole in
the wall.
• Position 6025 for best appearance. Use the optional stand-
offs if more space for wires is needed behind the 6025.
• Attach the base to the wall with the screws provided.
• If you are mounting the base to sheet rock or if you are
using the old mounting holes, use the plastic anchors
provided. Drill a 3/16-in.(4.8mm) hole for
the insert at each screw location, then
mount the base.

BATTERIES ONLY - This thermostat can run on batteries only using 2AAA
alkaline batteries. The batteries will last at least 1 year; replace the batteries
once a year or when the low battery icon comes on the display. If the batteries
are not replaced, the thermostat will shut off the HVAC and then stop working.
24VAC - This thermostat can run on the HVAC 24VAC (C wire) if available.
As shown in the wiring diagrams, the C wire is the other side of the 24VAC
heating transformer and can be found where the other thermostat wires
connect at the wall or at the furnace. Do not use the common or ground side
of the line voltage. If the C wire is used, the batteries are then for back-up in
case of power loss only and will last much longer. With the C wire connected,
the thermostat will continue to work if the batteries die or are removed.

NOTE:Your thermostat comes from the factory calibrated to +/- 1oof actual
temperature. It is an accurate instrument. If you want your thermostat to
display the same temperature as another thermometer in your home, you
can adjust its calibration.
To change the calibration:
Set the Mode switch to HEAT or COOL.
Locate the TIME SET button and press it. The
current calibration factor (+/-) of the 6025 will appear
in the LCD display as well as the modified temp.
Push the UP or DOWN arrows until the desired
calibration factor is reached.
Press HOME to save. The new calibrated temperature
will be displayed on the LCD.
