SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
The heater must be properly installed before it is used.
HEATER OPERATION
Fan Delay
Some models (5 kW and less) are designed with a fan delay that
allows the elements to heat-up before the fan turns on, reducing
the “cold blast” effect normally felt with non-fan delayed heaters.
On a call for heat from either the remote (fl oor level)
thermostat or the unit mounted thermostat the elements
will be energized.
After the elements get warm, a short period of time,
the fan will come on (5 kW and less).
When the thermostat is satisfi ed the elements will
be deenergized.
The fan will continue to run until the residual heat is
removed from the heater. Then the fan will stop.
Automatic Reset Thermal High Limit
The heater has an automatic reset thermal high limit that will
deenergize the heating elements if the interior temperatures of heater
exceed its setting. The limit will automatically reset when the heater
interior temperatures fall below its setting.
MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
The heater motor is permanently lubricated.
Occasional cleaning of the inlet grille will prevent clogging.
Use a vacuum with a brush attachment.
Cleaning should be done while the heater is disconnected
from the main service panel. Wait until the housing and
heating elements cool before performing maintenance.
Any other servicing should be performed by a qualifi ed
technician.
WARRANTY
The manufacturer warrants the component parts of the heater
against defects in material and workmanship for a fi ve year
period following the date of purchase, under normal use and
service, when proof of purchase of such is provided to the
manufacturer. The obligation of the manufacturer, under the
terms of this warranty, will be to supply a new unit and this
releases the manufacturer from paying the installation costs
or other secondary charges linked to replacing the unit or the
component part(s).
