WARNING Risk of Electrical Shock and Fire.
The heater must be properly installed before it is
used.
1. Do not operate without grill.
2. Keep electrical cords, drapery, furnishings and
other combustibles at least 3 feet away from the
front of the heater and 6 inches away from the
sides.
3. Do not tamper with the over temperature limit
control.
4. If the heater over temperature limits trip more
than once per day, the heater must be replaced.
How to operate your heater
Once installation is complete and power has been restored, turn
the heater switch on.
Important: The heater will remain on until it is manually turned
off.
If the manual power reset limit has opened the heater circuit due to excessive operating temperatures, the heater will not
work until it is reset. This can be done at the ON/OFF rocker switch control or the circuit breaker controlling the heater.
To Reset Heater at the ON/OFF rocker switch control
1. Change rocker switch control to OFF position.
2. Allow the unit to cool for at least 20 minutes.
3. Resolve the problem causing the limit to trip (typically the heat-
er is blocked or needs cleaning, see Maintenance Instructions).
4. Change rocker switch control to the ON position. The heater
should come back on. If it does not come back on, reset heater at
the circuit breaker, using directions to the right. An additional 20
minute waiting period is required every time the power is turned
off. Restoring power, even briefly, will heat the limit even though
the heater does not come on.
5. The heater is now functional.
Note that resetting the manual power reset control may not restore heater operation if a severe over-temperature
condition has occurred. See the Troubleshooting Guide on next page for more information.
For more effective and safer operation and to prolong the life of
the heater, read the Owner's Guide and follow the maintenance
instructions. Failure to properly maintain the heater will void any
warranty and may cause the heater to function improperly. War-
ranties are non transferable and apply to original consumer only.

About the Heater Temperature-Limiting Controls
If normal operating temperatures are exceeded (due to abnormal
circumstances), the heater has two temperature-limiting controls.
Both limiting controls are located on the element assembly. The
first is a manual power reset limit control, designed to open the
heater circuit when excessive operating temperatures are detect-
ed. The problem must be assessed and the limit must be reset to
resume operation.
Further protection is provided by a secondary over-temperature
fuse, which will open the heater circuit in severe over-tem-
perature conditions, or in the event of component failure. If this
occurs, the heater must be repaired or replaced.
To Reset Heater at the Circuit Breaker (recommended
if room temperature is below 45 ° )
1. Trip the breaker by switching it to the OFF position.
2. Allow the unit to cool for at least 20 minutes.
3. Resolve the problem causing the limit to trip (typically the heat-
er is blocked or needs cleaning, see Maintenance Instructions).
4. Restore power to the heater by switching the breaker to the
ON position.
5. Change rocker switch control to the ON position. The heater
should come back on. An additional 20 minute waiting period
is required every time the power is turned off. Restoring power,
even briefly, will heat the limit even though the heater does not
come on.
6. The heater is now functional.
