PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
DESCRIPTION
This wall-mounted, low voltage thermostat maintains
room temperature by controlling the operation of heating
and cooling systems. The user may program up to four
time/temperature settings per 24 hour period. The ther-
mostatstoresindependentheatingandcoolingprograms
for each day of the week. The thermostat will store both
heating and cooling programs simultaneously. Three
"AA" Energizer® batteries will maintain the stored pro-
gram for approximately one year, if incoming power
should fail. If power failure is extensive and the program
is lost, after power restoration, the thermostat will auto-
maticallymaintainafactorypreprogrammedheatingtem-

Figure 2. Removing thermostat from subbase
1. Remove the packing material from the thermostat.
Place the fingers of one hand on the center top and
bottom portion of the thermostat. Grasp the subbase
in the other hand on the top and bottom center, and
gently pull straight out (see Fig. 2). The thermostat
has pin and socket connectors. Forcing or prying on
the thermostat will cause damage to the unit.

not allow you to tighten subbase snugly, use plastic
expansion plugs to secure subbase.

thermostat does not seem to be attaching to the subbase
easily, make sure that the connector pins and plastic

pushed into the wall. Damage to the thermostat may
occur if force is used.
