PLEASE NOTE:
On initial start-up, the heater may cause an odor due to the manufacturing process. It
typically goes away within several hours
How to operate your heater
The room temperature is controlled by the thermostat on the heater. Simply plug it in and follow the
steps below to adjust the temperature to your comfort level.
1. Turn the thermostat knob all the way to the right.
2. When the room reaches your comfort level, turn the knob to the left, just until it clicks and the
heater turns off. The heater will automatically keep the room temperature around this setting.
3. To reduce the room temperature, turn the knob to the left. To increase the room temperature,
turn the knob to the right.
High-temperature and safety tip-over shutoffs
Portable hydronic baseboards come with a built-in high-temperature safety shutoff that stops
electricity flowing to the heater if it gets too hot inside. This automatically resets after cooling.
Your heater also includes a safety tip-over switch that resets as soon as the heater is standing up
again.
What is the fluid inside the element?
The portable hydronic baseboard fluid is a non-toxic mineral oil. No special first aid measures are
needed if the fluid is swallowed, inhaled, or if it gets on your skin or in eyes; simply rinse or wash with
soap and water.
The fluid does not freeze.
What about cleanup and disposal?
If the fluid leaks, stop using the heater. Cleanup is the same as it is for used oil. Wipe up any leaking
fluid with a rag or paper towel. Dispose of fluid at a recycling center that accepts used oil. Wash
hands with soap and water.
