Hi:spikea

Look closely on the back of the new thermostat. You will see tiny letters near the terminals indicating the color of the wire to connect to that terminal.

Example: R=red and Y=yellow

Connect the wires extending out from the wall to the appropriate terminals on the thermostat based on their colors.

Good Luck,
