AUTO SAFETY SHUT-OFF

WITH CERAMIC CONTROL

This heater is equipped with a patented, technologically-advanced safety system that requires the user to reset the heater if there is a potential overheat situation. When a potential overheat temperature is reached, the system will automatically shut the heater off. It can only resume operation when the user resets the unit.

To Reset the Heater:

12.5 Amps.

SETTING THE THERMOSTAT

1. You need to set thermostat on HI to start heater (See fig. #1).

Allow heater to operate and warm up the room.

2. When the desired temperature/comfort level is reached, lower the thermostat setting until the heater stops operating.
