    Here are your directions

    http://customer.honeywell.com/techli...0s/69-1717.pdf

    Make sure you have fresh batterys installed in the thermostat.

    One of you two wires you have goes to RH-RC. There is a jumper you leave in place so you have to attach one of your wires there.

    Next and last wire you have goes to W on the new thermostat.

    Read all of the directions and program and set up your new thermostat with you type of system you have.

    Word of caution. Many times the new style thermostats will not work on older systems but there is no reason not to try to hook it up.
