IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING:

• Always turn off power at the main power source by unscrewing fuse or switching circuit breaker to the off position before installing, removing, cleaning or servicing thermostat.

• Read all of the information in this manual before installing or programming this thermostat.

• This is a 24V AC low-voltage thermostat. Do not install on voltages higher than 30V AC.

• All wiring must conform to local and national building and electrical codes and ordinances.

• Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the system control to test installation. This will damage the thermostat and void the warranty.
