Operation
WARNING: This heater must be properly installed before it
is used.
These heaters are operated by an on/off switch and also a
temperature control with a knob.
1. Turn the switch ON. Remember there is a fan delay.
2. Set thermostat by turning the knob to desired room comfort
level (clockwise to increase heat output). Once you have
determined the proper setting to provide the heat level you
prefer, you need not touch the knob again.
3. Turn the switch OFF to turn off heater. To reuse, simply
turn the switch ON - the temperature level you wish has
been previously set.
!
NOTE: This heater is equipped with a fan delay switch
which delays the fan operation until the heating grid has heated
sufciently to assure the circulation of only warm air. This same
switch permits the fan to operate after power to the grid has
been shut off by thermostat action, thus utilizing all the heat
remaining in the grid.
When the heater is shut down by turning the switch OFF, power
to both fan motor and element is diconnected and the fan motor
will not continue to operate.
WARNING:Should the OVERTEMP light come on, discon-
nect power to the heater, turn the switch OFF or turn down
the thermostat fully counterclockwise and call a licenced
electrician. DO NOT USE HEATER UNTIL PROBLEM IS
DETERMINED AND FIXED.
Tamper Proof Models
The ON/OFF switch and the temperature regulating thermostat
are recessed so that the continuous grille front panel can be
installed concealing both controls. The thermostat is operated by
removing the front panel. The ON/OFF switch can be operated
by inserting a slender non metallic rod between grill louvers and
turning the switch ON or OFF.
