heating/cooling system
1.1a Important! To protect your
equipment, switch OFF
the power to your heating/
cooling system at the
breaker box or the system
switch.

connections for later reference.
1.2b If no wire is connected to a
terminal labeled C or no C
terminal exists on the old

Important!
C wire is required and is
the primary power source for your
thermostat. Without a C wire, your
thermostat will not power up.
1.3 Label wires
Do not label by wire color.
Use the supplied sticky tags to label
each wire as you disconnect it. Label
wires according to old thermostat
terminal designations, not by wire
color.
Note:
If no tag matches a terminal
designation, write the appropriate letter
on a blank sticky tag.
1.4 Remove wallplate
Remove the old wallplate from the
wall after all wires are labeled and
disconnected.
