This manual answers many of the questions that can arise as you become familiar and comfortable with your
Honeywell thermostat — the state of the art in home comfort controls.
Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions can damage the product or cause a hazardous
condition.

STEP 1. PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
q Check Table 1, the compatibility chart, to make sure the thermostat is compatible with your system. If your system
is not compatible, call Honeywell Customer Care, toll-free, 1-800-468-1502.
Package Contents
• Thermostat • Wallplate • Screws and anchors
• Wiring labels • Owners manual
Tools Required
• Screwdriver
• Drill

STEP 2. REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT
q Test your heating and cooling systems to make sure they work properly. If either system does not work, contact
your local heating/air-conditioning dealer. To avoid compressor damage, do not operate the cooling system when
outdoor temperature is below 50°F (10°C).
q Turn off power to the system at the furnace or the fuse/circuit breaker panel.
q Carefully unpack your new thermostat and wallplate. Save package of screws, instructions, and receipt.
q Remove the cover from the old thermostat. If the cover does not snap off when pulled firmly from the bottom, check
for a screw or screws used to lock on the cover.
q Loosen the screw or screws holding the thermostat to the wallplate and lift the thermostat away.
q Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat. As you disconnect each wire, attach the enclosed labels with the old
terminal designation. If there are only two wires, they do not need to be labeled. Wrap the wires around a pencil as
shown to keep them from falling back into the wall.
If you are replacing a Honeywell Chronotherm® Thermostat, you may find one or two
wires going to the C or C1 clock terminals on the Chronotherm wiring wallplate. Do not allow them to touch, or you can
damage the transformer. Disconnect the wires and wrap them separately using electrical tape. Do not wrap them
together. Place the wires where they will not interfere with the operation of the new thermostat. Record the colors and
terminal designation labels of the remaining wires.
69-1199—4 6
Replacing a Thermostat that has Three Wires
If you have three wires for a heating only system and can operate the fan using the fan ON switch this thermostat
works with your system. However, some hot water (zoned) heating systems also have three wires. Your thermostat will
work only if you install an isolating relay on these systems. For details, call your local heating and/or cooling contractor.
M16427
q Remove the wallplate from the wall. Drill two 3/16 in. holes in wall
(if drywall) as shown. For materials such as plaster or wood, drill
7/32 in. holes where marked. Gently, tap the (provided) anchors WALL
into the drilled holes until they are flush with the wall. WIRES
THROUGH WALL
q Reposition the wallplate over the holes. Pull the wires through the
wiring opening. Loosely insert mounting screws into each of the
holes. WALL
q Level the wallplate if desired. Thermostat functions properly when ANCHORS (2)
not level.
q Tighten mounting screws.

STEP 4. WIRE WALLPLATE TERMINALS
IMPORTANT
All wiring must comply with local codes and ordinances. If unsure about household wiring procedures, call
your local heating/air-conditioning contractor.
Refer to the labels you placed on the wires when you removed the
old thermostat (see illustration).
q Match the letter of your old thermostat wire with the
corresponding terminal letter on your new thermostat. Refer to
Table 2.
q Remove the factory-installed jumper connecting terminals R and
RC if wires are connected to both of those terminals. R
q For wiring diagrams, if needed, see pages 22-23.
W
q Loosen the terminal screws. Slip each wire beneath its matching
terminal. Wraparound and straight connections are both

q If the thermostat is already mounted on the wall, remove the
thermostat by placing your thumb between the thermostat and
wallplate and pulling the thermostat up and away as shown.
When the batteries are running low, a REPL BAT message flashes
for one to two months before the batteries run out completely.
Replace the batteries as soon as possible once the message
flashes.
IMPORTANT
Although the thermostat has a low battery indicator,
replace the batteries once per year to prevent leakage
and to prevent the thermostat and heating/cooling sys-
tem from shutting down due to lack of battery power in
