don’t try to repair it, call a qualified service
technician. Force or attempted repair may
result in a fire or explosion.

ExTENSION CORD
Use extension cord if needed. The cord must have
a three-prong, grounding plug and a three-hole re
-
ceptacle. Make sure cord is in good shape. It must
be heavy enough to carry the current needed. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage.
This will result in loss of power and overheating.
Use a No. 16 AWG cord for lengths less than 50
feet (15.24 m) .
CAUTION: Verify proper op
-
eration after servicing.
Operating Fan
The blower is connected to a thermostat. When unit
heats up, the fan will operate. A few minutes after
unit cycles off or is turned off, the fan will shut
off. The fan will cycle on and off in this manner.
Note:
If you have a heater with a thermostat, the
heater and fan will not turn off and on at exactly
the same time. Fan cycle times will vary with the
heat setting selected.
