Acquire tools and items as needed. See Fig. 1.
Loosen screws holding thermostat to subbase, wallplate, to wall and lift away. Disconnect wires from old thermostat or subbase. As you disconnect each wire, use masking tape to label it with the old terminal designation. If there are only two wires, they do not need labeling. Wrap wires around a pencil to keep them from falling back into the wall as shown in Fig. 2.

Replacing Clock With C or C1 Clock Terminals
If you are replacing a Honeywell Chronotherm Thermostat, you may find one or two wires that go to the C or C1 clock terminals on the Chronotherm Thermostat wiring wallplate. Do not allow them to touch, or you can damage your transformer. Disconnect the wires and wrap them separately using electrical tape; do not wrap them together. Place the wires to avoid interfering with the new thermostat operation. Record the colors and terminal designation labels of the remaining wires.

2 REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT

Test to make certain that your heating and air conditioning systems (where applicable) are working properly. If either does not work, contact your local heating/air conditioning dealer. To avoid compressor damage, do not operate the cooling system when outdoor temperature is below 50F (10C).

CAUTION

Six or More Wires
If there are six or more wires connected to the thermostat (excluding clock wires attached to terminals), you probably have a variation of a multistage heat pump or other multistage system. The thermostat is not compatible with such systems so return the product to your retailer. If you would like information about which programmable thermostats work with your system, call Honeywell Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-468-1502.
Be careful when handling wires during installation. Damage to heating/cooling system possible. Disconnect power at furnace or at main breaker/ fuse box before starting operation. Carefully unpack your new thermostat, wallplate, and decorator cover plate; save package of screws, instructions and receipt. Remove the cover from the old thermostat. If it does not snap off when pulled firmly from the bottom, check for a screw used to lock on the cover.

Three Thermostat Wires

If you have three wires for heating only and can operate the fan using the FAN ON switch, this thermostat works with your system. However, some hot water (zoned) heating systems have three thermostat wires. The thermostat will work only if you install an isolating relay on these systems. For details, call Honeywell Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-468-1502.
4 WIRE WALLPLATE TERMINALS
The CT2700 Thermostat is powered through the heating/ cooling system and is adaptable to most 4-wire, 18 to 30 Vac heating-cooling systems. Refer to Figs. 4 through 6 for some typical system wiring diagrams.

For firmer wall material such as plaster or wood, drill 7/32-inch holes. Gently tap provided anchors into the drilled holes until flush with the wall. Reposition the decorator cover plate and wallplate, pulling wires through the wiring opening. Loosely insert the mounting screws into the holes. Level for appearance only; the thermostat functions properly even when not level. Tighten the mounting screws.

All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and ordinances. If unsure about household wiring procedures, call your local heating and air conditioning contractor. Refer to the masking tape labels you placed on wires when you removed your old thermostat. Match the letter of your old thermostat wire with the terminal of the corresponding letter on your new thermostat. Refer to Fig. 7.

5 ADJUST FAN OPERATION SWITCH
The thermostat fan operation switch, labeled fuel switch in Fig. 9, is set at the factory in the F (gas/oil fuel) position. This is the correct setting for most systems. If this system is an electric heat system, set the switch to the E (electric) position. The E setting allows the fan to turn on immediately with the heating or cooling equipment in a system where the G terminal is connected.
