Install guide 3M-22  
Caution  
• Your thermostat is a precise instrument, handle it with care.  
• Turn off electricity to the appliance before installing or  
servicing thermostat or any part of the system.  
• Do not turn electricity back on until work is completed.  
• Do not short (jumper) across electric terminals at control on  
furnace or air conditioner to test the system. This will damage  
the thermostat and void your warranty.  
• All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.  
• This thermostat is designed for use with 24 volt AC and  
millivolt systems. The thermostat should be limited to a  
maximum of 1.0 amps; higher amperage may cause damage  
to the thermostat.

Install guide 3M-22  
To avoid electrical shock and to prevent damage to the furnace, air conditioner,  
and thermostat, disconnect the power supply before beginning work.  
This can be done at the circuit breaker, or at the appliance.  
Caution  
You will need a small Phillips screwdriver and possibly a drill  
with 3/16-in. (4.8mm) bit for wall mounting.  
Tools  
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 floor, and  
in a room that is used often.  
PG  
1
• Do not install it where there are unusual heating conditions, such as: in direct  
sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiator register, or 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; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.  
• Do not locate in a damp area. This can  
Good  
lead to corrosion that will shorten thermostat  
life.  
• Do not locate where air circulation is poor,  
such as: in a corner or an alcove; or behind  
an open door.  
• Do not install the unit until all construction  
work and painting has been completed.  
• This thermostat does not require leveling.

Remove old unit  
IMPORTANT : LABEL ALL WIRES  
BEFORE DISCONNECTING THEM!  
• Switch electricity to the furnace and  
air conditioner OFF; then proceed with the  
following steps.  
• Remove cover from old thermostat. Most are  
snap-on types and simply pull off. Some have  
locking screws on the side or front. These must  
be loosened. Note the letters printed near the terminals. Attach  
labels (enclosed) to each wire for identification.  
Read instructions carefully before removing any wiring from existing thermostat.  
Wires must be labeled before they are removed. THERE IS NO STANDARD  
Caution  
COLOR CODE. When removing wires from their terminals, ignore the color of  
the wires since these may not comply with any standard.  
PG  
3
• Label the wires one at a time. You must label all the wires before  
you proceed. With all wires labeled, remove them from the old unit.  
• Make sure the wires do not fall back inside the wall. 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.  
• Fill wall opening with non-combustible insulation to prevent drafts.  
Prepare wires  
• You will need at least 2.6" of wire for each  
of your connections to the 3M-22.  
• If you do not have enough wire, splice  
additional wire to allow enough slack.  
2.6"

• Fan out wires below the hole as shown.

Before you Connect Wires  
Please follow these guidelines for safe and secure  
wire connections.  
• Easy Terminals do not require stripping the wire.  
• Clip any bare wire from previous installation.  
Take care not to damage the labels for each wire in handling.  
• Fan wires out as illustrated with 3M-22 below the wall opening.  
• Wires will dress behind the 3M-22 and up over the terminal area.  
• Use the Step-By-Step diagram as your guide.  
• Do not bunch wires behind 3M-22. Feed slack back into the wall  
opening.  
Do not allow wires to touch each other or parts on thermostat.  
Caution  
• Insert the wire in the terminal and tighten  
the screw securely.  
Jumpers  
• You will need to set Configuration  
Jumpers per the Step-By-Step  
diagram. A needle-nose plier may be  
required to modify jumper positions  
W
What wires do you have?  
Determine which step-by-step wiring  
diagram below you should use. Make  
sure your wires are labeled. This may  
require you to find the 'other end' connection for each wire on your heating or  
air conditioning equipment and read the label there.  
If you have a wire marked "C" it is optional. If you do connect it, the  
thermostat will draw power from the C wire. This extends battery life.

Mount the 3M-22  
Wall  
3M-22  
• Hold the 3M-22 against the wall, with the wires coming  
over the top above terminal block. The 3M-22 will cover the  
hole in the wall.  
• Position 3M-22 for best appearance. Use the optional stand-  
offs if more space for wires is needed behind the 3M-22.  
• Attach the base to the wall with the screws provided.  
• If you are mounting the base to sheet rock or if you are using  
the old mounting holes, use the plastic anchors provided. Drill  
a 3/16-in.(4.8mm) hole for the insert at  
Wires  
each screw location, then mount the base.

Power Options  
BATTERIES ONLY - This thermostat can run on batteries only using 2AAA  
alkaline batteries. The batteries will last at least 1 year; replace the batteries  
once a year or when the low battery icon comes on the display. If the batteries  
are not replaced, the thermostat will shut off the HVAC and then stop working.  
24VAC - This thermostat can run on the HVAC 24VAC (C wire) if available.  
As shown in the wiring diagrams, the C wire is the other side of the 24VAC  
heating transformer and can be found where the other thermostat wires  
connect at the wall or at the furnace. Do not use the common or ground side  
of the line voltage. If the C wire is used, the batteries are then for back-up in  
case of power loss only and will last much longer. With the C wire connected,  
the thermostat will continue to work if the batteries die or are removed.  
Calibration  
o
NOTE:Your thermostat comes from the factory calibrated to +/- 1 of actual  
temperature. It is an accurate instrument. If you want your thermostat to  
display the same temperature as another thermometer in your home, you  
can adjust its calibration.  
To change the calibration:  
Set the Mode switch to HEAT or COOL.  
Locate the TIME SET button and press it. The  
current calibration factor (+/-) of the 3M-22 will appear  
in the LCD display as well as the modified temp.  
Push the UP or DOWN arrows until the desired  
calibration factor is reached.  
Press HOME to save. The new calibrated temperature

3M-22 Features  
This thermostat can be used with all millivolt and 24VAC heating and cooling systems. It  
cannot be used with line voltage systems. This thermostat is digital and your desired heat or  
cool temperatures can easily be set on the large screen with the +/- buttons on the front. A  
minimum 4 minute off time protects heating and cooling systems from damage.  
This thermostat uses a new technique called sequential staging for more comfort with  
faster reaction to requested temperature changes. When using a heat pump with Aux heat, if  
the heat pump cannot keep up and/or is  
defective, remove jumper from position 8 and put  
jumper on position 6 and the Aux heat will then  
be your only source of heat. Be sure to restore it  
to PUMP when the pump is again operational as  
aux heat is more expensive than pump heat.
