Temperature Display

 

These  models  are  equipped  with  a  digital  tem- 
perature  display.  The  temperature  being  shown 
represents the air nearest to the control cover. The 
temperature of the air in surrounding areas may 
be  much  different  from  the  temperature  being 
displayed. The display may show [ - - ] when the 
thermostat control or temperature sensor are dis- 
connected from the ignition control or if they are 
or damaged. If this occurs, the safety control will 
continue to operate as before, however, the unit 
will not cycle off during operation. See Figure 4.

LED Indicator Lights

 

These models are equipped with LED lights in order 
to help monitor your heater and to help diagnose 
any potential problems associated with your heater. 
Make sure you have read all of the instructions and 
see 

Troubleshooting

, page 8, before attempting to 

rectify any problems with your heater.

 

 

WARNING:  Never  service 

heater  while  it  is  plugged  in, 
operating or hot. Severe burns 
and electrical shock can occur.

 

 

LOGIC ENHANCED IGNITION

 

These  models  have  an  electronically  controlled 
ignition  system  that  is  able  to  detect  problems 
during startup and is able to apply an automatic 
“choke” to increase the likelihood of ignition. If 
the heater does not ignite within the first second 
the  motor  will  slow  down  momentarily.  If  your 
heater does not light after the first “choke” it will 
repeat once. If the heater does not ignite after the 
second  “choke”  it  will  shutdown  and  remain  in 
shutdown mode until the unit is reset. Please refer 
to 

Troubleshooting

,  page  8  in  order  to  properly 

diagnose the problem.

Ignitor 

-  indicates  a  problem  with 

the  ignitor  and  can  be  caused  by 
a  damaged  or  broken  ignitor  or  an 
ignitor that is wired incorrectly.

 

 

 
 

Flame 

- will illuminate after heater 

is  shut  down  due  to  problems 
associated  with  the 

flame  or  the 

photocell that monitors the flame.

Voltage 

- monitors line voltage during 

normal  operation  and  indicates 
improper  line  voltage.  If  line  voltage 
falls  below  108V  or  above  132V  the 
heater will shut down.

 

 

Start/Run 

-  blinks  during 

“preheat”  for  10-15  seconds 
before ignition and will stay on 
during normal operation.
