Install guide 606 aution To avoid electrical shock and to prevent damage to the furnace, air conditioner, and thermostat, disconnect the power supply befe beginning wk. This can be done at the circuit breaker, at the appliance. P 1 Tools You will need a Phillips screwdriver, Sheet rock Saw, level, Pencil. Location Replacement installations - mount the new thermostat in place of the old one. New installations - follow the guidelines listed below. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the flo, and in a room that is used often. Locate 2" away from the nearest wall stud to allow wall box clamps to operate. Locate where HV wiring can be easily accessed. Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiat register, fireplace; near hot water pipes in a wall; near a stove on the other side of a wall. Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall separating an unheated room; in a draft from a stairwell, do, window. Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to crosion that will shten thermostat life. Do not locate where air circulation is po, such as: in a cner an alcove; behind an open do. Do not install the unit until all construction wk and painting has been completed. This thermostat does not require leveling. P 2 ood 5ft. (1.5m)

You can wind them around a pencil to keep them from falling. Loosen all screws on the old thermostat and remove it from the wall. P ut all Opening all ox The 606 uses a cut-in type wall box (a type of electrical box that attaches to the drywall, not the studs). Remove the thermostat unit from the wall box as shown.

Power Options P 17 TTERIES ONLY - This thermostat can run on batteries only using 2 alkaline batteries. The batteries will last at least 1 year; replace the batteries once a year when the low battery icon comes on the display. If the batteries are not replaced, the thermostat will shut off the HV and then stop wking. 24V - This thermostat can run on the HV 24V ( wire) if available. s shown in the wiring diagrams, the wire is the other side of the 24V heating transfmer and can be found where the other thermostat wires connect at the wall at the furnace. Do not use the common ground side of the line voltage. If the wire is used, the batteries are then f back-up in case of power loss only and will last much longer. ith the wire connected, the thermostat will continue to wk if the batteries die are removed. alibration NOTE:Your thermostat comes from the facty calibrated to +/- 1 o of actual temperature.

606 Features This thermostat can be used with all millivolt and 24V heating and cooling systems. It cannot be used with line voltage systems. This thermostat is digital and your desired heat cool temperatures can be easily be set on the large touch screen with the UP/DON arrows. minimum 4 minute off time protects heating and cooling systems from damage. This thermostat uses a new technique called sequential staging f me comft with faster reaction to requested temperature changes. hen using a heat pump with uxiliary heat, if the heat pump cannot keep up is defective, move the large jumper from (lower) HET PUMP position to the (upper) UX ONLY position (reset is not necessary). The uxiliary heat will then be your only source of heat. hen the heat pump is again operational, be sure to change jumper back to the position as the uxiliary heat is me expensive than the heat pump.
