FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE
PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
These wall-mounted, line or low voltage humidity controls
are available as a Humidistat commonly used to control
and operate a furnace humidifier or as a Dehumidistat
commonly used to cycle an air conditioning system to
control humidity in an unoccupied home to prevent mil-
dew build-up associated with high humidity levels.
These humidity controls feature a moisture-sensitive
nylon sensing element and also provide positive ON-OFF
settings for manual operation.
If in doubt about whether your wiring is line, or low voltage,
have it inspected by a qualified heating and air condition-
ing contractor, electrician, or someone familiar with basic
electricity and wiring.
Do not exceed the specification ratings.
All wiring must conform to local and national electrical
codes and ordinances.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2271W
This control is a precision instrument, and should be
handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting compo-
nents could cause the control to malfunction.
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment dam-
age, disconnect electric power to system, at main
fuse or circuit breaker box, until installation is
complete.
Do not short out terminals on primary control to
test. Short or incorrect wiring will burn out humid-
ity control and could cause personal injury and/or
property damage.
Do not use on circuits exceeding the rated volt-
age. Higher voltage will damage control and could
cause shock or fire hazard.
