OPERATION

A - 3-Position Switch 

The power switch has two (2) On positions marked with “ 

I

 

” and “ 

II

 ”. The “ 

I

 ” position is for manual operation. In this 

position the built-in remote control is bypassed.  
The “ 

II

 ” position is for operating the unit with the provided 

remote control. When in “ 

II

 ” position the unit is operated 

with the ON and OFF buttons of the remote control.
When the switch is in the center (“ 

O

 ”) position the unit is 

off.

B - Heater Switch

The Heater Switch supplies power to the heater fan and the 

heater element.  When the switch is in the On position the 
heater operates if the thermostat calls for heat

.

C - Heater Thermostat Control

To adjust the temperature to your individual requirements, 

turn the thermostat control clockwise all the way to turn 

on the heater.  When the room reaches the desired 

temperature, turn the thermostat knob counter clockwise 

until you hear a click.  Leave in this position to maintain the 

room temperature at this setting.  For additional heat, turn 

clockwise until you hear the click again and the heater will 

turn on.

Resetting the Temperature Cutoff Switch

The heating assembly is protected with a safety device 

to prevent overheating.  Should the heating assembly 

overheat, an automatic cut out will turn the heater off and it 

will not come back on without being reset.  It can be reset 

by switching the 3-Position Switch to Off and waiting five 
(5) minutes before switching the unit back on.

 

CAUTION

:

 

 

If the unit continuously cuts out, unplug the 

unit and call customer service at 1-800-DIMPLEX. 

!

 

NOTE:  

The heating elements may emit a slight, 

harmless odor when first used.  This odor is a normal 

condition caused by initial heating of internal heater parts 

and will not occur again.
