Heating or Cooling and Heating/Cooling  
New Construction Thermostat,  
Wallplate and Subbase  
Installation Instructions for the Trained Service Technician.  
Preparation  
Recycling Notice  
Check thermostat and subbase (if used) suitability for the  
heating, cooling, or heating/cooling system. Refer to Table 1.  
Assemble tools required: flat bladed screwdriver, hand or  
power drill with 3/16-in. drill bit, wire cutter/stripper or  
sharp knife, bubble level or plumb bob and line.  
Assure power is off to the heating, cooling, or heating/  
cooling system at the main fuse panel. Most buildings have  
a separate switch box or circuit breaker for disconnecting  
power to the heating and cooling (if applicable) equipment.  
This thermostat is compatible with most heating, cooling,  
or heating/cooling systems. Refer to Table 1 for thermostat  
and system compatibility information.  
This control contains mercury in a sealed tube. Do not  
place control in the trash at the end of its useful life.  
If this control is replacing a control that contains mercury  
in a sealed tube, do not place your old control in the trash.  
Contact your local waste management authority for in-  
structions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of this  
control, or of an old control containing mercury in a sealed  
tube.  
If you have questions, call Honeywell Inc. at 1-800-  
468-1502.

Assure that the 24V control transformer common is accessible for connection  
to thermostat cable conductor and power to the transformer is not regularly  
interrupted by high temperature, purge cycle, or limit operation.  
Vent Damper  
Honeywell damper motors are compatible.  
Some non-Honeywell damper motors require an R8239D1015 Isolating

Relay in the thermostat control circuit. Check control amperage  
requirement.  
Warm Air Zone  
Most are compatible.  
a
If thermostat is not compatible with the system being controlled, the system will not operate. No hazard exists. The thermo-  
stat will not be damaged unless it is used to directly control a line voltage system. For proper system operation, a Honeywell  
R841 or R8239D1015 Isolating Relay must be added to the thermostat control circuit.  
Consult manufacturer for installation requirements.

LOCATION  
Locate thermostat about 5 ft [1.5m] above the floor in an  
area with good air circulation at average temperature.  
Do not mount the thermostat where it may be affected by:  
drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.  
hot or cold air from ducts.  
radiant heat from the sun or appliances.  
concealed pipes and chimneys.  
unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall  
behind the thermostat.

Outlet Box Mounting (Fig. 4)  
Use a horizontally mounted outlet box if possible. If a  
vertical outlet box is used, mount the wallplate or subbase on  
a 202689A Cover Plate Assembly (ordered separately). Fol-  
low the instructions provided with the cover plate assembly.  
Align the wallplate or subbase mounting holes on the  
outlet box and loosely fasten with two screws.  
Subbase (Heating/Cooling Systems)  
Refer to Fig. 5, and strip the thermostat wire insulation as  
necessary.  
Connect the wires to the corresponding terminals on the  
subbase. If labels do not agree with your new subbase, refer  
to Table 2 and the installation instructions furnished with  
the subbase.  
Carefully level the wallplate or subbase (Fig. 3), and  
firmly tighten the screws.

Note the tabs on the top inside edge of the thermostat base.  
These tabs fit the slots molded into the top of the wallplate or  
subbase.  
Hang the thermostat base on the wallplate or subbase.  
Insert the two captive mounting screws located in the  
bottom corners of the base (Fig. 6).  
SET TIMER  
Adjust the clock by moving the knob clockwise  
not reverse the knob.  
When time is correctly set, the time indicator arrow  
(triangle shape) points to the corresponding daytime (light)  
or nighttime (dark) portion of the program dial.  
. Do  
Firmly tighten the screws.  
INSERT TIMER BATTERIES (OPTIONAL)  
Power is supplied to the clock by the 24-Vac transformer.  
Two AAA alkaline backup batteries (not included) may be  
installed to supply power to the timer if power is interrupted  
due to power failure.  
Install the batteries in the thermostat (Fig. 7).  
Once a year or when batteries are dead, replace with two  
new AAA alkaline batteries. We recommend Energizer®  
batteries.  
ATTACH THERMOSTAT COVER  
Make sure the packing inserts in the thermostat base are  
removed.  
Place the two tabs on the upper edge of the cover into the  
mounting slots in the thermostat base (Fig. 9).  
Swing the cover downward until it catches at the bot-  
tom of the base.

SET SUBBASE SWITCHES (IF APPLICABLE)  
The subbase system switch controls system operation as  
follows:  
HEAT: Heating system is controlled by the thermostat.  
Cooling system is off.  
COOL: Cooling system is controlled by the thermostat.  
Heating system is off.  
CAUTION  
Do not check operation by shorting across termi-  
nals of system controls. This will damage the heat  
anticipator.  
OFF: Both the heating and cooling systems are off. If the  
fan switch is in the AUTO position, the fan is also off.  
The subbase fan switch controls fan operation as follows:  
ON: Fan operates continuously.  
AUTO: Fan operates with the cooling equipment as con-  
trolledbythethermostatorwiththeheatingequipment  
as controlled by the plenum switch. In electric heat,  
heat pump, and fan coil systems, the fan is controlled  
by the thermostat in heating and cooling.
