UnInSTAllInG THE ExISTInG UnIT  
1. Turn the system power OFF from the existing  
thermostat. Turn the power to the HVAC  
system OFF at the main power panel or at the  
furnace.  
2. remove the existing thermostat cover to  
access the wires from the wall.  
(Some thermostats may have multiple covers, screws  
or other locking devices that must be removed or  
disengaged.)  
3. locate, but do not disconnect the wires.  
(If wires are not visible, they may be connected to the  
back of the wall plate. Some models may have doors  
that open to expose the wires and mounting screws.)

4. Using the provided stickers, label each wire  
according to the chart.  
(If the terminals are not labeled, contact a  
qualified HVAC technician.)  
note: Wire colors do not always comply with  
standards, so wire color should be ignored.  
refer to the existing terminal designation for  
proper identification.  
*If a wire marked C is present, C may be a  
Common wire and should not be used. If you have  
a wire marked C, do not connect it to any terminal.  
This wire is used only for non-battery powered  
thermostats.  
5. Do not let the wires slip back into the wall  
during disconnection. You may want to secure  
the wires to the wall as you disconnect them.  
After all wires are labeled, disconnect each  
wire and remove the existing wall plate.

Your thermostat is preset to cycle your system  
off and on at 1oF above and below the Set  
Temperature. For maximum system efficiency and  
a sustained comfortable temperature your system  
should cycle 3 - 5 times per hour. If your system is  
cycling either too often or not often enough, then  
use a small Phillips-head screwdriver to turn the  
sp a n ad j u s t left or right to change the cycle time.  
1. remove the thermostat from the wall plate.  
2. To make your system run lOnGEr, turn the  
sp a n ad j u s t clockwise.  
3. To make your system run SHOrTEr, turn the  
sp a n ad j u s t counter clockwise.  
4. reattach the thermostat to the wall plate.

note: The Span range is 0.6 F - 3 F. The Span setting remains  
the same in both the Heat and Cool modes and can be  
changed regardless of what position the System Switch is in.
