Operating Switches
Note: If installing a remote starter, refer to remote starter
instructions before terminating wires.
A 7 Day Timer , a Push/Pull switch or an easy start timer are
available for the heater.
The 7 Day Timer has been designed to provide a simple means
to control the operation of the heater system and to include the
capability for diagnostics. This timer connects to the diagnostic
circuit of the heater. The timer then displays any heater fault
codes in three digit number form automatically. The timer allows
for pre-selection of turn on time, up to 7 days in advance, as well
as an option for run times up to 2 hours before automatically turn-
ing off. In addition, there is an on/off switch for manual operation.
By default the timer is pre-set by Espar to operate for two hours.
Refer to instructions provided with timer for setting options.
• Mount bezel into dash and insert timer or use Espar’s optional
mounting bracket and secure to dash.

• Connect the switch harness to the connector at the heater and
run harness to switch location. (Harness should be neatly
routed and secured under dashboard).
• Cut harness to length and terminate wires. Attach using con-
nectors provided.
