Caution

Tools

To avoid electrical shock and to prevent damage to the furnace, air conditioner,

and thermostat, disconnect the power supply before beginningwork.

This can be done at the circuit breaker, or at the appliance.

C A U T I O N

ï Your thermostat is a precise instrument.

Please handle it with care.

ï 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.

ï 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.

ï All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.

ï 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.

ï On replacement installations, mount the new thermostat in place of the old

one if possible.

ï Locate the thermostat on an inside wall, about 5 ft. (1.5m)above the floor,

and in a room that is used often.

ï 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

ï Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on awall separating

an unheated room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or window.

ï On new Installations, follow the guidelines listed below.

ï Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that will shorten

thermostat life.

ï Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as: in acorner or an

alcove; or behind an open door.

ï Do not install the unit until all construction work and painting has been

completed.

ï This thermostat does not require leveling.

You will need #1 Phillips screwdriver (small) and

Drill with 3/16-in. (4.8mm) bit for this installation.

ï Separate front from back of unit. Grasp the front of the

unit and the back of the unit and pull apart. The

thermostat body away from the base.

ï Hold the base against the wall, with the wires coming

through the opening below the terminal block.

ï Position the base for best appearance

ï Attach the base to the wall with the two

screws provided.

ï 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 each screw

location, then mount the base.

Furnace and AC unit

ï Switch electricity to the furnace and air conditioner OFF;

then proceed with the following steps.

ï 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.

ï Note the letters printed near the terminals.

ï Carefully attach labels (enclosed) to each wire.

Label the wires one at a time.

You must have all the wires labeled before you proceed.

Remove the wires from the terminals of the old thermostat.

Make sure the wiresdo not fall back insidethe wall.

Wind them around a pencil tokeep them from falling.

Remove the old thermostat from the wall. Fill wall

opening with fiber glass insulation to prevent drafts.

Caution

DO NOT REMOVE WIRES FROM OLD THERMOSTAT UNTIL YOU HAVE

CAREFULLY LABELED THEM, WITH LABELS PROVIDED.

THERE IS NO STANDARD COLOR CODE FOR THESE WIRES.

Please be aware of the following power options

1) The 8010 can run on batteries only. (2AA Alkaline) 

The batteries will last well over 1 year. If the batteries are not replaced the thermostat will

stop working.

2) The 8010 can run on the C wire if available. 

As shown in the wiring diagrams, The C wire is the other sid e of the 24VAC heating

transformer. If the C wire is used, the batteries are not n eeded.

5 Install Batteries

The 8010 requires batteries to operate your system.

Switch MODE switch to OFF and the FAN switch to

AUTO.

ï Insert 2 AA alkaline batteries according to the

polarity noted in the compartment.

NOTE: Replace the batteries when this

LOW battery indicator appears on the

display or once a year.

Please refer back to these guidelines for safe and secure wire

connections.

Take carenot to damage the labelsfor each wire in handling.

Strip insulation 3/8 in. (9.5mm) from wire ends.

Connect labeled wires only to a terminal with correspondingletter.

Bend the wire slightly, insert the wire under the contact plate and

tighten the screw down onto the wire.

The Wire Label List shows wire

labels used on Ritetemp thermostats.

Please determine what wires you

have and select the correct wiring

diagram to "go to" on pages 8-9.

If you have a HEAT PUMP select a

wiring diagram on pg 9.

Before you Connect Wires

Caution

Do not allow

wires to touch

each other or parts on unit.

Wires must be routed through

the hole in the back plate, below

the terminal block, or they will

hit parts on the cover.

Make sure your wires are labeled . This is necessary to determine which step-by-step

wiring diagram you should use. 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 Zoned Heating/Cooling system with multipl e thermostats, please refer to

our website at www.ritetemp-thermostats.com for installation notes or call 1-888-515-2585.

The 8010 can be used with most 24 volt gas, oil or electricheating and air

conditioning systems, heat pump systems with or without auxiliary heat, Normal 2

Stage systems, Zoned Hot-Water, Zoned Forced air systems,or gas millivolt

heating systems. It cannot be used with 120 volt heating systems or. Ask The

Home Depot for other thermostats to control those systems.

The 8010 is digital. You can program your desired Heat

and cool temperature by setting the dial. The unit uses

no harmful mercury.

A 5-minute minimum off time in COOL protects your air

conditioning system from being damaged.

Two "AA" batteries (not included) are used to run the

thermostat in some installation. "C" wire installations can

make batteries last many times longer.
