Installing your thermostat
6 Mount wallplate for thermostat.
Mount your new wallplate using screws and
anchors included with the thermostat.
If necessary:
Drill 3/16-in holes for drywall.
Drill 7/32-in holes for plaster.
Note: You may be able to use your existing
wall anchors. Hold the wallplate up to the
existing anchors to check for alignment.
Important! The thermostat requires a C wire to operate. The C, or common, wire
brings 24 VAC power to the thermostat. Many older mechanical or battery operated
thermostats do not require a C wire. If you don't have a C wire, try:
• Looking for an unused wire that is pushed into the wall. Connect that wire to C and
check that it is connected to the 24 VAC common at your heating/cooling system.
Note: Not all heating/cooling systems label the 24 VAC common C. Check your system
manual or contact the manufacturer to find out which terminal is the 24 VAC common.
