INITIAL SETUP |
|
- Unpackage heater: cut open tape area, fold back flaps and gently turn entire box upside down. Lift box from styrofoam packing. Remove styrofoam, turn upright. We recommend keeping the packaging for off season storage and any transporting needs.
- Find a level and unobstructed location to place the unpackaged heater.
- Plug the power cord directly into an unused grounded 110 volt 15 amp or higher circuit receptacle. Push the red rocker switch located on the front grill to the 'I' position to turn it on; it will glow red when powered on.
- Set the thermostat to the highest setting. In one to two minutes the fan will turn on and start delivering safe comfortable heat evenly for maximum efficiency.
- When the temperature has reached a comfortable level, slowly turn the thermostat down until you hear a slight click. The thermostat will then cycle the heater on and off to maintain your desired temperature.
- If you press the rocker switch to the off position 'O' during a heat cycle, the fan will run until all internal heat has been expelled.

HEATER STORAGE |
| |
When the heater is not going to be used for an extended period of time, please do the following: |
- Unplug heater.
- Wind up electrical cord so as to keep it off of the ground.
- Cover the heater to prevent dust from accumulating on filter or internally.
- Store the heater in a dry, low dust environment.

THERMOSTAT NOTES |
| |
When you first turn on the heater: |
- Set the thermostat to the highest setting (ignoring the degree setting). In one to two minutes the fan will turn on and start delivering safe comfortable heat evenly for maximum efficiency.
- When the temperature has reached a comfortable level, slowly turn the thermostat down until you hear a slight click. The thermostat will then cycle the heater on and off to maintain your desired temperature.
- There is a cooling off period once the heater reaches the desired temperature and the air coming out may feel slightly cooler.
- The heater will run approximately 5 to 10 minutes after shutting it off to cool down the heating elements.
- The Honeywell thermostat is a bi-metal mechanical line voltage thermostat.
- All Bi-Metal Mechanical Line Voltage thermostats are less accurate than digital thermostats. Pre-set dial placement and a differential rating of +/- 3 degrees also play a role in accuracy. This is absolutely normal and consistent with all Bi-Metal Mechanical Line Voltage thermostats. If the heater is maintaining your comfort level, it is working correctly.
