When connected, the unit will be controlled  

by a remote thermostat.

NOTE: 

The number 3 dip switch must be in 

the enabled 

(UP) 

position to activate the remote 

thermostat. (See the installation instructions 

supplied with the remote thermostat.)

IMPORTANT: 

The thermostat connections provide 24 V AC only.
If using a digital/electronic wall thermostat,  

ensure it is compatible with 24 VAC signal. See  

the Installation Instructions for the wall thermostat.

NOTICE:

Damage to a wall thermostat or to the electronics 

can result from improper connections. Special 

care must be used in connecting the wires. No line 

voltage connections should be made to any circuit. 

Isolate all wires in building from line voltage.

2

 Remove the screws securing the plastic cover 

over the wiring connections. Set aside screws 

and plastic cover.

3

 To make wiring connections, insert the wires 

into the bottom of the terminals and tighten 

screws securely.

4

 After all desired connections have been made, 

replace the plastic cover and front grille.

The owner is responsible for making all 

connections and setting the appropriate dip 

switches.
