Wiring—conventional systems
Alternate wiring (conventional systems)
If labels do not match terminals, connect wires as shown below (see notes, below).
NOTES:
1. If you must connect both
R and Rc wires, set the
R Slider Tab to the down
position (2 wires).
2. If your old thermostat
had both R and RH wires,
set the R Slider Tab to
the down position (2
wires). Then connect the
R wire to the Rc terminal,
and the RH wire to the R
terminal.
3. If your old thermostat had only 1 C or C1 wire, connect it to the C terminal. If
your old thermostat had 2 C or C1 wires, wrap each separately with electrical
tape and do not connect them.
4. C does not power the thermostat display or operations; batteries are always
required.
