hot during heater operation.
③ Extreme caution is neces-
sary when any heater is used by
or near children or invalids and
whenever the unit is left operating
and unattended.

heater is operating. Additional
appliances on the same circuit
may exceed the current rating
of the circuit breaker.

1. Wire a dedicated, properly
fused circuit with 120 Volt, 15
Amp rating. Allow up to 8 feet
of service cable for connect-
ing power supply to junction
box on replace when install-
ing after nishing wall.

Manual Controls
A. 3-Position Switch
The switch has two ON positions
marked. The "--" position is for
manual operation. In this position
the built-in remote control is by-
passed. The "=" position is for op-
erating the unit with the provided
remote control.
When the switch is in the center
“o” position the unit is off.
B. Heater ON/OFF Switch
The Heater ON/OFF Switch sup-
plies power to the heater fan and
the heater element. When the
switch is in the ON position the
heater operates if the thermostat
calls for heat.
C. Heater Thermostat Control
To adjust the temperature to your
individual requirements, turn the
thermostat control clockwise all
the way to turn on the heater.
When the room reaches the de-
sired temperature, turn the ther-
mostat knob counter-clockwise
until you hear a click. Leave in
this position to maintain the room
temperature at this setting. For
additional heat, turn clockwise un-
til you hear the click again and the
heater will turn on.
!NOTE: The heater on your
replace may emit a slight,
harmless odor when rst used.
This odor is a normal condition
caused by the initial heating of
internal heater parts and will
not occur again.
Resetting the Temperature
Cutoff Switch
Should the heater overheat, an
automatic cut out will turn the re-
place off and it will not come back
