looks right now.
Be sure to include the letters next
to the terminals where the wires
are inserted. This will be a helpful
reference when wiring your new
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
each wire.

NOTES:
• C does not power the thermostat display or operations; batteries are
always required.
• If K was used on old thermostat you have a wire-saver at the equipment.
Re-wiring would need to be done so that Y and G are used instead of K.
• The RTH5160 thermostat does not support L/A, S, or U terminals.
• If there are wires in terminals that are not listed, you will need
additional wiring support. Visit yourhome.honeywell.com/support to
find out if the thermostat will work for you.
