BLOWER OPERATION
Blower Operation
The blower can be operated manually or automatically (blower will turn on when the insert is hot and turn off when the insert is cool).
The rocker switch on the control panel allows you to select between manual operation or automatic operation as follows (see Figure 10
):
MANUAL OPERATION:
Turn rocker switch to the manual position (up) and adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed. The blower will have to be manually turned “OFF” by rotating the rheostat knob counterclockwise until it clicks.
AUTO OPERATION:
Turn rocker switch to the “AUTO” position and the rheostat to the ON position (rotate rheostat knob clockwise until it clicks). When the insert warms up, the blower will automatically turn on (adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed setting). When the insert cools down, the blower will automatically turn off.
Rheostat Operation
- The highest blower speed is obtained by turning the rheostat knob clockwise until it clicks “ON”, then rotate towards
“HIGH” to increase blower speed. Rotate the knob clockwise for a lower speed. To turn off, continue to rotate the knob counterclockwise until it clicks “OFF.”

WARNINGS
Manual / Auto
Rocker Switch
The blower must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle, 120 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. Do not route power cord under or in front of appliance.
Blower Operation Guidelines
While in auto operation mode, the blower will turn off and on based on the temperature of the appliance. Auto operation ensures there is sufficient heat build-up to warm the air being moved by the blower before the blower is turned on. Likewise, when the appliance cools off, the blower is turned off to prevent circulating cool air. Depending on the size and
Installation must be in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In Canada, the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code - latest edition.
DANGER: Disconnect power before servicing blower.
