THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION
The thermostatic control used on this model differs from
standard thermostats. Standard thermostats simply turn
the burner on and off. The thermostat used on this heater
senses the room temperature. At times the room may ex-
ceed the set temperature. If so, the burner will shut off. The
burner will cycle back on when room temperature drops
below the set temperature. The control knob can be set to
any comfort level between HIGH (5) and LOW (1).
