Operating the Heater

Turning the heater ON

When you press and release the

ON/OFF button, the Temperature

Level lamps will illuminate, the

combustion fan will begin to run,

and the spark will ignite the main

burner.
This heater has an automatic ignition system. When

the main burner has lit, the combustion lamp will glow

red, and the spark will stop.
If ignition does not occur after 15 seconds, the

appliance will automatically turn off and the

Temperature Level lamps will flash indicating a fault

code. This may occur when using the appliance for

the first time or if it has not been used for a while. Try

operating the appliance again.
There may be a smell of burning dust or oil the first

time the heater is lit or when the heater has been out

of operation for a long time.
The appliance may make noises after ignition or when

it is turned off. This is normal and is due to the

thermal expansion or contraction of its components.

Adjusting the Temperature

The first time that the appliance is turned on, the

preset temperature of 72° F will be shown on the

display. Every time the temperature setting is

changed, that temperature setting will be the latest

data appearing on the display the next time the

appliance is turned on.
To change the temperature setting, adjust the

temperature control buttons until the desire setting is

indicated.
When the desired temperature has been set, 10

seconds later, the display will show the current room

temperature.
The thermostat automatically modulates the burner

and the fan to maintain the temperature setting.
The temperature settings available are:

LO - burner is on minimum combustion

60° F - 80° F in two degree increments

HI - burner is on maximum combustion

Turning the heater OFF

Press the ON/OFF button. Do not

turn off by unplugging at the power

outlet.
The fan will continue to run for a

short time to prevent the internal

components from overheating.

ON/OFF

Economy Mode

Pressing the Economy button will cause

the appliance to go into Economy Mode

and the green lamp will glow. This

results in the temperature setting being

reduced by 2° F, 30 minutes after the

room temperature has reached the

temperature setting. After another 30

minutes the temperature setting is

reduced another 2° F. This could result

in the temperature setting being reduced by a

maximum of 4° F. The intent of this mode is to save

energy.
When the heater is running at the LO setting, the

Economy Mode does not function.
