- Installation Instructions and User Guide
Optional Cover Plate Installation
NOTE: If an Optional Cover Plate is not required, see “UWP Mounting System installation” on the next page.
Use the Optional Cover Plate when:
- Mounting the thermostat to an electrical junction box
- Or when you need to cover the paint gap from an old thermostat.
- Separate the Junction Box Adapter from the Cover Plate. See Figure 1.
- Mount the Junction Box Adapter to the wall or an electrical box using any of the eight screw holes. Insert and tighten the mounting screws supplied with Cover Plate Kit. Do not over-tighten. See Figure 2. Make sure the Adapter Plate is level.
- Attach the UWP by hanging it on the top hook of the Junction Box Adapter and then snapping the bottom of the UWP in place. See Figure 3.
- Snap the Cover Plate onto the Junction Box Adapter. See Figure 4.
UWP Mounting System Installation
- Before starting, turn the power off at the breaker box or switch. Open the package to find the UWP. See Figure 5.
- Position the UWP on the wall. Level and mark hole positions. See Figure 6. Drill holes at marked positions, and then lightly tap supplied wall anchors into the wall using a hammer. ‒ Drill 7/32” holes for drywall.
- Pull the door open and insert the wires through the wiring hole of the UWP. See Figure 7.
- Place the UWP over the wall anchors. Insert and tighten mounting screws supplied with the UWP. Do not over-tighten. Tighten until the UWP no longer moves. Close the door. See Figure 8.
Power options
Setting Slider Tabs
Set R Slider Tab.
- Use a built-in jumper (R Slider Tab) to differentiate between one or two transformer systems.
- If there is only one R wire, and it is connected to the R, Rc, or RH terminal, set the slider to the up position (1 wire).
- If one wire is connected to the R terminal and one is connected to the Rc terminal, set the slider to the down position (2 wires).
NOTE:
Slider Tabs for U terminals should be left in place for T6 Pro models. Setting Slider Tabs
Wiring terminal designations
* Terminal can be jumped using Slider Tab. See “Setting Slider Tabs” above.
** The THP9045A1023 Wire Saver Module is used on heat/cool systems when you only have four wires at the thermostat and need a fifth wire for a common wire.
Use the K terminal instead of the Y and G terminals on conventional or heat pump systems to provide control of the fan and the compressor through a single wire—the unused wire then becomes your common wire. See THP9045 instructions for more information.

FAQs About Honeywell T6 Pro Installation Instructions Manual
Has auto changeover been added to the Honeywell t6 Pro?
The thermostats made by Lyric T6 Pro have auto-changeover. As a result, depending on the ambient temperature and the heating and cooling set points, the thermostat can switch between heating and cooling as needed. Your thermostat has not been set up for automatic changeover if “auto” is not listed as an option.
Has the Honeywell t6 Pro WiFi?
Your T6 Pro Smart Thermostat can interface with smart home systems like Apple HomeKit and Amazon Echo when it is connected to your existing WiFi, enabling you to change the temperature as easily as you would a song on your playlist. The phases of your heating system, up to 2 Heat/1 Cool with a heat pump, are likewise compatible with this WiFi thermostat.
How can a Honeywell T6 be placed on indefinite hold?
Adjust the temperature setting on your thermostat’s display to “Permanent Hold.” The following schedule change’s time will display after a “HOLD UNTIL” notification. When you tap the HOLD UNTIL message, the messages PERMANENT HOLD and RUN SCHEDULE will also appear. To maintain the new setting permanently, press PERMANENT HOLD.
Can the Honeywell T6 show humidity?
A system’s status You can show the current temperature, the relative humidity in percent, or if your heating or cooling system is on.
Honeywell Pro Series is a high voltage, right?
Both low voltage (24 volts) and line voltage (120 or 240 volts) systems can use Honeywell thermostats. 24 volts is the most typical voltage from a central heating and/or cooling system (24Vac).
Is the Honeywell T6 battery operated?
Both a hardwired connection and two AA batteries can power the T6 Pro.
Do you need a C wire for the Honeywell T6 Pro?
The common wire, commonly referred to as a “C” wire, is necessary for the T5/T6 pro Wi-Fi thermostats. The thermostat can run without batteries thanks to the “C” or common wire. It must be linked to the furnace control board’s common connection, marked C.
Honeywell: Does it function without wifi?
Yes, even if your Wi-Fi network is down, the thermostat will still control your heating and/or cooling system.
My Honeywell t6 has an auto mode, how do I activate it?
1 On the thermostat’s home screen, tap Mode until Auto appears. Next, tap or to select your chosen temperature setting for the presently selected mode (heating or cooling). 2 To transition to the inactive mode, next touch the text area where the active mode is visible.
Can I use my phone to operate my Honeywell thermostat?
You can program your thermostat from a computer, tablet, or smartphone, whether you’re nearby or halfway over the world, thanks to Honeywell’s dependable and highly regarded app.
How do I adjust my Honeywell thermostat?
Setting the temperature on your Honeywell thermostat is easy if you have a manual thermostat. To adjust the temperature, simply push the up and down buttons. Until you adjust it again, the temperature you set will remain.
