Do not remove any wires from your thermostat at this time!   # Make sure there are no 120/240v wires.  Doyouhave thick black wires with wirenuts?  Is your thermostat 120 Vor higher? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you have a line voltage system and the thermostat will not work.   5 Take a picture of how your wiring looks right now.  Be sure to include theletters next to the terminals where the wires are inserted.This willbe a helpful reference when wiring your thermostat.  Tip: If the color of your wires has faded or if 2 terminals have the same wire color,use the wire labels provided in the package to label eachwire.  
6 Remove any jumpers  Ajumper connects one terminal to another terminal.It may look like a small staple or even a colored wire and must be removed before continuing.Usea screwdriver to release wires from terminals.   The RTH 7500 thermostat does not need jumpers.  7 Record if you have wires in the following terminals Do not include jumpers as a part of your count. The thermostat does not need jumpers.   8 Writedown the color of the wires.  Check mark the wires that are connected to terminals. Next to the check mark write down the color of the wire.

Quick Installation Guide  )Disconnect the wires and remove the old wall plate.  Use a screwdriver torelease wires from terminals.Then,use a wire label to identify each wire as it's disconnected.The letter on the wire label should match the letter on the terminal.  Tip: To prevent wires from falling back into the wall, wrap the wires around a pencil.   # Installing your thermostat   10 Bundle and insert wires through the UWP  Pull open the U WP and insert the bundle of wires through the back of the U WP.Make sure at least 1/4-inch of each wire is exposed for easy insertion into the wire terminals.   
11 Insert the wall anchors.  It is recommended that you use the wall anchors included in theboxto mount your thermostat.  You can use the U wP to mark where you want to place the wall anchors.  a）Level the wall plateb）Markthe location of the wall anchors using a pencil. c）Drill the holes. d)Insertwall anchors e)Make sure anchors are flush with wall.  Tip:Usea7/32drillbit   12 Set R-switch position and insert R-wire or wires. Set the R-switch up or down based on your wiring notes in Step 7  Insert wires into the inner holes of the terminals on the U WP.The tabs will stay down once the wire is inserted.  If you have 1 R-wire (R,Rh, or Rc)   1. Set R-switch to the up position.   2. Insert your R-wire(R, Rh or Rc) into R-terminal.  # If you have 2 R-wires (R or Rh, and Rc)   1. Set R-switch to the down position.   2. Insert your Rc wire intoRc-terminal 3. Insert your R or Rh wire into R-Terminal.  
# 13 Connect wires from Step 8.  Tip:Do not mount the U WP to the wall prior to connecting the wires.  Depress the tabs to put the wires into the inner holes of their corresponding terminals on the UWP (one wire per terminal) until it is firmly in place.  # Gentlytug on the wires to verify they are secure.  Tip:If you need to release the wires again,push down the terminal tabs on the sides of the U WP   # 14 Mount the UWP and close the door.  Mount the UWP using the provided screws. Install all three screws for a secure fit on your wall. Close the door after you'refinished.  # 15 Confirm wiring matches snapshot.
