Once your heater is ON, use the control buttons on the front panel to select the desired heat setting for your
needs. Your heater will start on the Constant Hi Room heat setting each time you turn the heater on. Here is
a handy reference to help select the heat option that best suits your desired comfort level:
FLOOR AREA – (LOW HEAT)
This setting uses the lower level heating element only to provide a comfortable, gentle heat to warm up the
floor area in front of the heater.
PERSONAL – (MODERATE HEAT)
This setting uses a moderate heat level to warm you personally. The LO option ( ) provides a soothing heat
using the upper level heating elements only, while the HI option ( ) slightly increases heat output, allowing
you to adjust to your desired comfort level.
ROOM – (MODERATE-HIGH HEAT)
Best for whole room heating, use this setting to bring warmth to cooler, drafty rooms. The LO option
provides a moderate heat level, while the HI option uses maximum heat output to create a warmer
environment.
THERMOSTAT – (MODERATE-HIGH HEAT)
To set the Thermostat, press the Thermostat Control Buttons (
) to choose your Desired
Temperature. The Desired Temperature will flash five times and then the Current Temperature in the room
will display as a steady number. The Thermostat can operate on either HI or LO heat levels to achieve
Desired Temperature by pressing the ( ) button under Room.
NOTE:
If the Current Temperature is higher than your Desired Temperature, the heater will go into cool down
mode and then shut-off until the room temperature falls below this setting or until the Desired Temperature
is changed.
HEATPHASE™ TIMER
The new HeatPhase
TM
Timer is an auto-off feature that gradually transitions the room temperature from
warmer to cooler. The timer starts at high heat and steps down
4
different heat levels until it shuts off - over
a 2 hour period. This feature is ideal for setting a comfortable, relaxing environment. (Fig. 2) The timer can
also be toggled to start at your desired level.
QUIET MODE
The new Quiet Mode features uses a low heat setting and fan speed to produce a gentle "white noise" and
soothing warmth. This setting uses an upper level heating element only. (Fig. 3)
The Honeywell HeatGenius
TM
Ceramic Heater is equipped with several devices and features for
added protection:
• A four way tip-over switch that disables the heater if it is accidently tipped in any direction. If tipped over,
the unit should be set upright and follow the OPERATION instructions.
• A high temperature safety control prevents overheating. If activated, unplug the device and wait at least
10 minutes for unit to cool. Then plug the heater back in and follow the OPERATION instructions.
• The heater is also equipped with a thermal cut-off fuse that will permanently shut down the heater should
it operate at a higher than normal temperature. If activated, the unit will need to be replaced.
• This heater was created using high quality, heat-resistant plastics and has a Cool Touch handle.
