Ballast Replacement

[jcs823]

I currently have a 3 lamp ballast that needs replacement. It has one red wire connected to one side of all three lamps and 3 blue wires connected to the other side. I purchased a GE432-120RES-DIY that indicates operation for 3 or 4 lamp fixtures. The new wire diagram indicates connecting 1 yellow wire to one side of each pair of lamps. The other side of lamps has 2 red to one pair and 2 blue to other pair. In my application, do I connect 1 yellow to the red, and then a red or blue to the 3 blues and cap the extra wires?
