If nothing happened, then you did everything right. After that, you can remove your old thermostat. Now, you need to screw the base plate and connect the wires of the heating system. Then it is necessary to attach the working part of the device to the base and turn on the power of the thermostat. In general, installation should not be any problem, since Ecobee comes with very clear step-by-step assembly instructions.
