Carefully unpack your new thermostat; rough handling may affect its accuracy. Save your receipt and identify the following parts: · CT87 Thermostat · Screws: two 1-in. sheet metal screws, two 1/2-in. binding head screws, and two 1/4-in. round head screws · Wallplate (CT87A) or subbase (CT87B, CT87J) · Cover ring (select models only). Necessary if installing on an outlet box. Optional if installing directly on the wall; can be used to hide wall marks. · These Installation Instructions and the Installation Quick Guide. · Wiring labels 2. Gather these tools: Required Tools · Flat blade screwdriver · Spirit level Optional Tools · Hand or power drill with 1/16-in. drill bit · Wire cutter/stripper or sharp knife · Pencil 3 Remove the old thermostat 1. Turn off power to the heating/cooling system at the main fuse/circuit breaker panel. 2. Remove the cover of your old thermostat. You may need to unscrew the cover if it is locked on. 3. Locate the heat anticipator adjustment scale and lever on the old thermostat (Fig. 1). In the box below, record the Fig. 1. Mercury switch location. number that the adjustment lever points to. This is the current (amp) rating of your heating system. MERCURY SWITCH Current setting: OLD THERMOSTAT ANTICIPATOR SCALE LEVER TYPICAL LOCATION OF A MERCURY SWITCH IN A THERMOSTAT M20206 If you cannot find the heat anticipator setting on the old thermostat, you can use a standard setting for your type of system when you reach Step 8 of this installation. 4. Unscrew and remove the old thermostat wallplate from the wall, but do not disconnect the wires. 69-0274-6 2 CT87A,B,J ROUND® THERMOSTAT 5. Label the wires using the wiring labels that came with the CT87. Identify each wire using the letter of the terminal on the old thermostat (Fig. 2). Do not label the wires by color. 6. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat and wrap them around a pencil to keep them from falling back into the wall (Fig. 3). Fig. 2. Labeling wires. M19086 Fig. 3. Wrapping wires. MERCURY NOTICE WIRES THROUGH WALL OPENING If this thermostat is replacing a control that contains mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old M20133 control in the trash. Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of this control, or of an old control containing mercury in a sealed tube. 4 Install the cover ring and wallplate or subbase If installing on the wall Refer to Fig. 4 as you work.

Loosely attach the wallplate/subbase to the cover ring with two 1/4in. screws, through the screw holes on the left and right sides of the wallplate/subbase. 5 Level the wallplate or subbase IMPORTANT: The wallplate/subbase must be level to maintain accurate thermostat temperature. 1. Rotate the wallplate/subbase until level as shown in Fig. 6. To level the subbase, use the leveling posts directly below the Heat and Fan indicators. Fig. 6. Leveling the wallplate. SPIRIT LEVEL LEVELING POSTS (2) OPENING FOR THERMOSTAT WIRING MOUNTING SLOTS M3319A 2. Tighten the mounting screws after making sure that the wallplate or subbase is level. 5 69-0274-6 CT87A,B,J ROUND® THERMOSTAT 6 Wire the thermostat 1. Use the wiring cross-reference table below to match each old thermostat wire with its corresponding terminal on the CT87 wallplate or subbase. See Fig. 8 through 13 wiring diagrams.

Using a pencil point, move the heat anticipator pointer to the number that you recorded in Step 3, sub-step 3. If you could not find the anticipator setting on the old thermostat, use the setting for your type of system shown in the table below. Your heating system: Steam Hot water heat High-efficiency warm air Standard warm air Electric heat 2. Snap on the thermostat cover. NOTE: If the furnace stays on beyond the thermostat set temperature, move the anticipator pointer down by .1 ampere. If the furnace shuts off before the set temperature is reached, move the anticipator pointer up by .1 ampere. Never adjust the anticipator below .3 ampere. Heat anticipator setting: 1.2 0.8 0.8 0.4 0.3 9 Check heating/cooling operation Check heating 1. Turn the transparent dial to the farthest point left. 2. If your CT87 has a subbase, set the system switch to Heat. 3. Turn the dial until the temperature on the setting scale (Fig. 16) exceeds the room temperature that is shown on the thermometer. The heating system should start. 4. Turn the dial until the temperature on the setting scale is below the room temperature that is shown on the thermometer. The heating system should stop. Fig. 16. Checking heating system. SETTING SCALE THERMOMETER M9656 69-0274-6 10 CT87A,B,J ROUND® THERMOSTAT Check cooling IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the compressor in the air conditioner, do not operate the cooling system when the outdoor temperature is below 50°F (10°C). 1. If your CT87 has a subbase, set the System switch on the left to Cool. IMPORTANT: After heating is tested, wait five minutes before switching to Cool on the CT87J model. 2. Lower the temperature setting below room temperature. The cooling system should start. 3. Raise the temperature setting above room temperature. The cooling system should stop. Operation To set the temperature, turn the dial until the pointer on the top setting scale aligns with the desired temperature. CT87B, J switches Switch System Setting Cool Off Heat Fan On Auto Result The thermostat controls your cooling system. Both the heating and cooling systems are off. The thermostat controls your heating system. The fan runs continuously. The fan runs only with the heating or cooling system. 11 69-0274-6 CT87A,B,J ROUND® THERMOSTAT Limited One-Year Warranty Honeywell warrants this product, excluding battery, to be free from defects in the workmanship or materials, under normal use and service, for a period of one (1) year from the date of purchase by the consumer.
