IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
Turn the electrical power off at the electrical panel board (circuit breaker or fuse box) and lock or tag the
panel board door to prevent someone from turning on power while you are working on the heater. Failure to
do so could result in serious electrical shock, burns, or possible death.

Solution
1. Verify that supply voltage matches the heater rating.
2. The total amperage of all heaters on a branch circuit must not be more
than 80% of the amperage rating of the circuit breaker and supply wire
ratings. Use a lower wattage heater, or reduce the number of heaters on
the circuit.
3. Shorted supply or heater wires may be accompanied by severe sparking.
Inspect all supply and heater wiring insulation for damage. Do not reset
the circuit breaker until all electrical shorts have been repaired.
4. Replace the circuit breaker.
1. Allow a few moments for element to reach operating temperature.
2. Verify that supply voltage matches the heater rating.
3. Replace element.
1. Close doors and windows. Provide additional insulation, or install a
higher wattage heater or multiple heaters if necessary. (If your circuit is
rated for more capacity.)
2. Wait for the timer to time-out or turn the timer counterclockwise to `0'
(The timer overrides the thermostat setting). If heater continues to run,
adjust thermostat to its lowest setting. If heater continues to run (allow
two minutes for the thermostat to respond), and room temperature is
greater than 50 degrees; the thermostat requires replacement.
1. Clean heater (See "Operation & Maintenance" section for instructions).
1. Heater or fan motor requires replacement.
2. Remove obstruction and press heater reset button (after allowing the unit
to cool). Test heater operation--if reset button has been pressed (be sure
to listen and feel for a click indicating it has been reset), but heater does
not run, heater requires repair or replacement.
1. Adjust thermostat to a higher temperature until heater operates (See
Problem #6 if the problem persists).
2. Press the manual reset button (See "Operation & Maintenance" section
for instructions).
3. A severe over-temperature condition has occurred. Repair or replace
heater.
4. Turn on the correct circuit breaker in the main panel.
5. Turn off power at circuit breaker. Check supply wire continuity and
proper connection to heater wires.
6. Repair or replace the heater. The entire heater, or any of its components
may be checked for continuity to determine the cause of any problem.
