How to operate your heater
1. Once installation is complete and power has been restored, turn the
thermostat knob fully clockwise. (The timer is on the left and represented by the
symbol
. The numbers indicate minutes).
2. When the room reaches your comfort level, turn the thermostat knob
counterclockwise until the heater turns off. The heater will automatically
cycle around this preset temperature.
3. To reduce the room temperature, turn the knob counterclockwise.
To increase the room temperature, turn the knob clockwise.
4. For additional heat beyond thermostat setting, when room is occupied,
turn timer to desired minutes. (The thermostat is on the right and represented by
the symbol
). Heater will remain on until time expires, then control of the
heater will return to the thermostat and the previous set-point setting.
Maintenance
As needed, or every six months minimum.
1.)
WARNING! Before removing grill, turn the electrical power off at the
electrical panel board (circuit breaker or fuse box). Lock or tag the panel board
door to prevent someone from accidentally turning the power on while you are
working on the heater. Failure to do so could result in serious electrical shock,
burns, or possible death.
2.) Turn the heater thermostat all the way up and wait approximately
30 seconds. If the heater turns on, you have turned off the wrong circuit
breaker at the electrical panel board.
3.) If heater does not turn on, proceed with next step.
4.) Remove screws and take off grill.
5.) Wash grill with hot soapy water and dry immediately.
6.) While holding fan (to avoid damage or bending), use a hair dryer or vacuum

Installation Instructions
How do I insert the heater assembly into the wall can?
Install Heater Assembly
STEP 3
Turn heater assembly upside down (element down with motor facing you). Connect the supply wires to the
heater wires with connectors (See Figure 9). Now rotate the heater so the element and the fan are facing
you. The element should be at the top.
Insert the bottom edge of the heater assembly into the half round slots in the bottom lip of the wall can (See
Figure 10). [IMPORTANT: Push wires into bottom of wall can during insertion. Be sure that supply wires are
not caught between motor and wall can, attach assembly at top with screw provided.]
Operation & Maintenance
Install Grill
STEP 4
Secure grill with the screws provided. Slide thermostat
knob onto right control shaft extending through the grill
and the timer knob onto the left shaft. Turn power on at the
electrical panel board.

on blow cycle to blow debris through the top element (Do not touch element).
7.) Vacuum fan area without touching the elements.
8.) Replace grill and secure with screws.
9.) Turn thermostat to desired setting.
10.) Turn power back on at the electrical panel board.
About the Heater Temperature-Limiting Controls
The heater is protected by two temperature-limiting controls. The first is a high
temperature manual reset limit control, designed to open the heater circuit when
excessive operating temperatures are detected. The problem must be assessed
and the limit must be reset to resume operation.
Further protection is provided by a secondary over-temperature switch, which
will open the heater circuit in severe over-temperature conditions, or in the
event of component failure. If this occurs, the heater must be repaired or
replaced.
Resetting the Manual Reset Limit Control
If the manual reset limit control has opened the heater circuit due to excessive
operating temperatures, the heater will not work until the limit reset button is
pressed. After allowing the unit to cool for at least 10 minutes and resolving the
problem causing the limit to trip, (typically heater is blocked or needs cleaning)
use a narrow object such as a ball-point pen to access the reset button through
the heater grill. Press FIRMLY, and be sure to listen and feel for a click, indicating it
has been reset.
Note that resetting the manual limit control may not restore heater operation if a
severe over-temperature condition has occurred. See the "Troubleshooting
Guide" on next page for more information.
