Mount wallplate for smart thermostat
Mount your new wallplate using screws and anchors included with the thermostat.
If necessary:

• Drill 4.5mm holes for drywall
• Drill 5.5mm 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.

Switch OFF power to your heating/cooling system
Important! To protect your equipment, switch OFF the power to your heating/cooling system at the breaker box or the system switch. Confirm power is OFF.
Try to turn on heating/cooling equipment by changing temperature on your old thermostat. Your power is OFF if your system does not turn ON.

Remove old thermostat faceplate and leave wires connected
Take a picture of the wire connections for later reference. If no wire is connected to a terminal labelled C or no C terminal exists on the old thermostat, view the Alternate Wiring videos honeywellhome.com/wifi-thermostat.
Important! C wire is required and is the power source for your thermostat. Without a C wire, your thermostat will not power up.

WiFi Smart Thermostat Label wires
Do not label by wire colour. Use the supplied sticky tags to label each wire as you disconnect it. Label wires according to old thermostat terminal designations, not by wire colour.
Note: If no tag matches a terminal designation, write the appropriate letter on a blank sticky tag. Wrap the wires around a pencil to prevent them from falling back into the wall.
