D. Resetting Temperature Cutoff Switch
The heater is protected with a safety device to prevent
overheating. Should the heater overheat, an automatic
cutoff will turn the heater OFF. It will not turn ON auto-
matically without being reset. If it overheats for any rea
-
son, it can be reset by:
1. Turn appliance to OFF.
2. Shut-off power at the circuit breaker.
3. Let appliance cool for 15 minutes.
4. Turn on power at the circuit breaker.
5. Turn on appliance with manual switch or remote control.
CAUTION:
If you need to continuously reset the heater,
contact your dealer for service.
C. Room Temperature and Thermostat
Function
The temperature display on the remote control is a set
point for the desired temperature of the room in which
the appliance is installed. The Thermostat button on the
remote can be used to set the desired room temperature.
The heater will only operate if the remote control tem-
perature set point is higher than the actual room tempera
-
ture. The heater will not operate if the actual temperature
is greater than the remote control temperature set point.
This function can also be used as a thermostat, under the
following conditions:
• When the remote control display is set to a desired
room temperature using the thermostat button, the
appliance heater will turn OFF automatically when
the room temperature reaches the set point.
•
The heater will turn ON automatically if the room tem-
perature falls below the set point.
Note:
The actual room temperature is measured by a
hidden sensor located behind the glass front of the appli
-
ance. During certain situations, this sensor temperature
can be slightly different than either the remote control lo
-
cation, or the overall space being heated. For this rea
-
son, the remote control set point temperature may need
to be set slightly higher or lower than expected room tem
-
perature for the heater function to work as desired.
