All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and ordinances.
1. Select the set of terminal identifications (Table 1) that corresponds with system type
(conventional or heat pump in Figure 7).
2. Loosenthescrews for the appropriate system type selected; see Table 1. See Table 2
for terminal designation descriptions. Insert wires in the terminal block under the loosened
screw. See Figure 8.
3. Securely tighten each screw.
