This product is intended for indoor use only. Use only with electrical wiring that is in good working order and that meets applicable codes and ordinances. If you have any questions whether your wiring is adequate, consult a qualified electrician. Risk of fire, overheating, malfunction, property damage, injury or even death may result if not adhered to. Use your heater-fan only with a working smoke detector located in the vicinity of your heater-fan. While using your heater-fan, you should follow the IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS listed below. As part of those instructions, we have used the word "WARNING" to indicate the level of hazard: WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could result in injury or death. GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION: WARNING- Read and understand installation and operation instructions and observe all safety instructions SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 1. For supply connections, use only copper wire, see SPECIFICATIONS 2. Heater air flow must be directed parallel to, or away from adjacent wall. 3. Observe wall, floor, and ceiling clearance requirements, see Figure. 1. 4. All wiring must conform to national and local electrical codes in the United States and the heater must be grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock. Heater circuit must be protected with proper fuses or circuit breakers. 5. The mounting structure and the anchoring hardware must be capable of reliably supporting the weight of the heater and, if used, the mounting bracket. 6. All electrical power must be disconnected, and the main service box must be locked before inspection, cleaning or servicing the heater. This is a precaution to prevent serious shock. 7. This heater is not suitable for use in hazardous locations as defined by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) in the United States. This heater has hot and arcing (sparking) parts inside.

This heater is designed to maintain a comfortable room temperature. Always operate the heater in the upright position following all instructions and recommendations listed in this manual. 2. When the heater is turned on by pressing the POWER button, it will operate at 10,000W. The LED display panel will show the ambient temperature. The fan will start running about 10 seconds after initial start to push the heat out. To operate the unit on FAN ONLY setting, press the MODE button again. In FAN ONLY mode, the LED display panel will show FA to indicate the heater is in FAN ONLY mode. (See Figure 2) 3. The temperature setting can be adjusted between 45°F (7°C) to 95°F (35°C). To change the temperature, press the TEMP+ or TEMP - buttons on either the unit or the remote. (See Figure 2) 4. The temperature display will blink while it is being adjusted. When the desired temperature is reached, it will take about 5 seconds to accept the setting. Once the display stops flashing, the room temperature will reappear on the LED screen to indicate the desired temperature is set. 5. In any temperature mode, the unit will stay in that mode, cycling on and off to maintain the set temperature. 6. The heater can be turned OFF by pressing the POWER button. Once the unit is turned off, the fan will continue to run to cool down the unit and there will be a 90 seconds countdown on the digital display. 44 The Timer function allows you to set the length of operation from 1 to 12 hours. Each time the TIMER button is pressed the length of operation will increase 1 hour. The duration the timer is set for will be displayed on the LED screen in hour increments. TO TURN THE TIMER FUNCTION OFF: Press the TIMER Button continuously until the LED screen displays "O". NOTE: The timer function is not an excuse to leave the heater unattended. NOTE: Heater will cycle on and off to maintain room temperature. The first time you operate the unit, it may smoke slightly. This is due to residual cleaning agents used to clean the element when the heater is manufactured. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the unit. This condition will stop after the heater has been in operation for a few minutes. FAHRENHEIT OR CELSIUS DISPLAY: To switch the display between Fahrenheit and Celsius, press the °F/°C on either the unit or the remote. INSTALLING THE HEATER: LOCATING THE HEATER: Install the heater out of traffic areas, maintaining the clearances stated in Figure 1 above. The air flow from the heater must not be restricted or obstructed by any items in the room. When more than one heater is used in an area, the heaters should be arranged so that the air discharge of each heater supports the air flow of the others to provide best circulation of warm air, as indicated below in Figure 3. Figure 3 BRACKET INSTALLATION FOR CZ260ER SERIES Refer to Figure 4. 1. Locate a ceiling joist or other firm structural element or support to mount the heater and point at desired direction of air flow. 2. Drill a ¼” pilot hole in the ceiling joist for the screws. 3. Place the screws and washers as shown in the Figure 4. 4. Tighten the screws to secure the heater. www.comfortzoneproducts.com CONNECTING THE POWER: 1. With the power off at the breaker, remove all screws from the bottom lid for access to the electrical section of the heater. 2. Attach flexible cable through a knock-out in the side of the heater following NEC and local codes, (See Figure 6) and SPECIFICATIONS for recommended wiring and circuit breakers. CEILING JOIST WASHER BRACKET NOTE: For certain applications, conduit may be required (See Figure 6). Check local electrical codes. If you run the wiring in conduit and wish to be able to turn the heater be sure to purchase enough flexible conduit to allow the heater to be turned. 3/8" DIAMETER LAG BOLT CONDUIT Figure 4: Multi-Screw Mounting, For Fixed Position CONDUIT CONNECTOR If Heater is to be turned and wire is inside conduit. 3ft. min. FLEXIBLE CONDUIT HANGING THE HEATER IN THE BRACKET 1. Lift the heater into the mounting bracket and align the lower bracket holes with the threaded holes nearest the heater’s center. 2.
