USAGE:
HEATER OPERATION: Always operate the heater in
the
upright position following all instructions and
recommendations
listed in this manual HEATER
LOCATION: Place the heater
in the area of the room that
is coldest. HEATER CONNECTION:
Plug heater directly
into 120 volt A.C., 60 Hz wall outlet. Be
sure plug fits
tightly in outlet. A loose connection may cause
overheating and damage to the plug or heater. NOTE:
To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater
into a circuit that is servicing other electrical needs.
TURNING HEATER ON: To start the heater, turn the
On/Off Power Level/Fan Dial from the OFF position to
the 1300 or 1500 watt setting. Then rotate the
Thermostat Control clockwise to the HIGH
THERMOSTAT
position as described below. (During the
heaters initial use, you may experience
a slight odor or
smoking. This is the result of the heating
element
lubrication “burning off”. This is normal and will go
away after a few minutes of use.)
POWER LEVEL SWITCH: This heater has two heat
settings: 1300 and 1500 watts. Use the higher setting
(1500 watt) to raise the room temperature quickly.
When the desired temperature is reached use the
lower 1300 watt setting. It is usually sufficient to
maintain a comfortable temperature.
ADJUSTABLE THERMOSTAT WITH ANTI-FREEZE
SETTING: After heater has been turned on and the
room has reached the desired temperature, slowly
rotate the thermostat knob counter-clockwise until the
heater shuts off (you should hear a faint “click”). By
leaving
the thermostat at this setting it will
automatically maintain this temperature. To lower
temperature, rotate the knob further counter-clockwise
(towards the LOW position). To raise the temperature,
rotate the thermostat knob clockwise (towards the
HIGH position).
When set to the Anti-Freeze setting, the Heater will
turn on whenever the temperature drops below 40°F,
which is helpful to economically prevent ice formation
in garages and other unheated spaces.
TURNING OFF: Turn the On/Off Power Level/Fan Dial
to the OFF position before unplugging or plugging in
the heater. Heater should be unplugged when not in
use. To disconnect heater, turn controls to OFF , then
remove plug from outlet.
