1. The heater must be properly installed before it
is used.
2. DANGER: High temperatures may be gener-
ated under certain abnormal conditions. Do not
partially or fully cover or obstruct the front of this
heater.
How to operate your heater
The room temperature is controlled by a line voltage thermostat located either on the wall, or on
the heater. Once installation is complete and power has been restored, if you have a mechanical
thermostat, follow steps 1 through 3 below.
If you have an electronic thermostat, follow the instructions in the programming and operating
guide included with your thermostat.
1. Turn the thermostat fully on.
2. When the room reaches your comfort level, turn the thermostat knob counterclockwise until the
heater turns off. The heater will automatically cycle around this preset temperature.
3. To reduce the room temperature, turn the knob counterclockwise. To increase the room tem-
perature, turn the knob clockwise.
Maintenance As Needed, or every 24 months minimum.
WARNING! Before cleaning, turn the electrical power off at the electrical panel board (circuit breaker
or fuse box). Lock or tag the panel board door to prevent someone from accidentally turning the power
on while you are working on the heater. Failure to do so could result in serious electrical shock, burns,
or possible death.
1. It is important that you verify power has been turned
off and no power is going to the heater before pro-
ceeding. Circuit breakers are often not marked cor-
rectly and turning the wrong breaker off could mean
electricity is flowing to the heater, even if the heater
does not appear to be working. If you are uncomfort-
able working with electrical appliances, unable to fol-
low these guidelines, or do not have the necessary
equipment, consult a qualified electrician.
2. Once you verify the power has been turned off cor-
rectly, proceed to the next step.
